The BMW 2 Series is a balanced vehicle that can be had with an automatic or manual transmission, rear or all-wheel drive, and either as a coupe or convertible.

This is the third-generation Alpina B7 to be offered in North America, and if you don’t know what that means, then maybe this car just isn’t for you. If you want to learn more, however, we’re happy to help.

BMW has offered M40i versions of the latest generation X3 and X4 models, but they pale in comparison to the newly announced, full bore X3 M and X4 M, which both come with 473 horsepower, while Competition versions feature 503 ponies.

Suffer for fashion. It’s the aphorism that sees bloody feet stuffed into pointy heels, girdles, and corsets wrapped around protesting waistlines, and crossover roofs slimmed down to the point where they resemble the thorax of a particularly bulky wasp.

The 2020 BMW 7 Series has made its official debut and just like every other new BMW, it has a comically large take on the automaker’s iconic double kidney grille.

The BMW i8’s carbon fiber monocoque will form the basis of a forthcoming hybrid supercar from the German manufacturer.

It should come as no surprise that a nearly $150,000 flagship luxury sedan is a bit of an exotic, and unrelatable. Every day in the Alpina B7 was a rollercoaster of emotions and opinions. The first day was full of excitement and interest but on the last day, I was left a bit confused and isolated.

The  BMW M5 gives you so much to talk about, from its slick executive design to the fancy all-wheel-drive system to the twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 that makes 600 horsepower. But what might matter more than any of that is whether the car comes together cohesively with its own personality.

The modern BMW lineup has expanded far beyond its traditional range, which was once limited to the 3, 5 and 7 Series families.

Everything is bigger in America, including German crossovers.

Everyone seems to have a story or memory about the BMW 3 Series. DTM racer Timo Glock shared with us that he recently purchased a 1988 3 Series, a special edition model, because it reminded him of his father’s Alpina White E30, a car that he remembers growing up in.

The BMW 3 Series is the sports sedan that supported a whole brand and launched an entire market segment, with countless of other automakers chasing that perfect blend of luxury and fun that the 3 always managed to perfect.

The BMW M8 appears to have leaked online well ahead of its debut next year.

Supercars are like David Copperfield or David Blaine. They’re the cars that people expect a certain flair from. See them, drive them, and come away impressed that something can be so… fantastic. They’re also masters of misdirection and stardom.

With 382 hp and 369 lb-ft of torque, the 2020 BMW M340i and M340i xDrive are the most powerful 3 Series models (that aren’t M3s) ever.

Four-wheel steering was once a gimmick, a not-quite-ready technology most famously embraced by Japanese sports cars at the beginning of the ’90s before eventually fading from the market. Revived on occasion in the ensuing decades — perhaps most notably by GM’s ‘QuadraSteer’ pickups — it has seen a surge in applications in recent years, especially among luxury brands.

The worst kept secret in the automotive world is that BMW wants to have three variants to the 8 Series lineup. We’ve already seen the coupe with two doors, a gran coupe with four doors is on the way, and the convertible version has just debuted.

Consumer Reports has released its annual Car Reliability Survey and there are a few surprises.

BMW’s current electric cars are anything but pedestrian. The forthcoming i4 electric sedan will change that, however.

BMW’s first ever X7 is finally here. After months of preparing us with risible concepts and veiled shots that the press has been mean about, we can finally see the X7 in its entirety. And yeah. It looks pretty much like we expected.

The BMW i3 and i8 both wear rather extreme designs, and the looks are absolutely on purpose. Future electric cars from the German brand, however, won’t be as dramatic.

The seventh-generation 2019 BMW 3 Series has made its debut at the Paris Motor Show with a raft of new technology that improves driving dynamics and user-friendliness.

As the number of X models increases yearly (with the X2 just arriving and X7 coming soon),  BMW has to make sure that the big daddy of the lineup is up to the world-class standard that the brand represents.

The European Union has launched an investigation into Volkswagen, BMW and Daimler amid suspicions the automakers colluded to delay the rollout of clean emissions technology.

I don’t like the M3 CS. It’s not because the M3 isn’t fast or capable or impressive. And it’s not because it is uncomfortable and loud and makes people hate you. I’m okay with all of that.

Following up on the Z4 Concept that debuted last year during the Pebble Beach festivities, BMW is officially showing off the production version of its Z roadster, although not all details have been fully uncovered.

Have you ever even tried to fill a champagne flute while Jeeves is at the wheel? It’d be easier to beat Warren Buffet’s dividend portfolio.

In the world of compact luxury crossovers, the BMW X1 has reigned supreme. It outsells many of its rivals and is seen as a premium choice with a lower price tag.

Last week we found out that BMW was taking steps to keep its dibs on the i9 name. Now, the Bavarian company is doing the same with the i7 nameplate.
