In an effort to launch the first self-driving vehicle, automakers are turning to tech-giants in the Silicon Valley for additional expertise in hopes of accelerating technology and testing.

If you’re someone who has been hoping to “go green” with your next vehicle purchase, but have had reservations about the range of some electric vehicles in the market, then we’re got some good news for you; the 2017 BMW i3 gets 114 miles of pure-electric range per charge, so you can put range anxiety to rest for good.

Here at Thompson BMW, we know our customers have refined, luxury tastes and that means they want vehicles that play to and reflect those sophisticated proclivities. That’s why we’re so enamored by the BMW 7 Series and all the bold, innovative features you’ll find inside. Check it out below!

Coming hot on the heels of all those auto shows, BMW Group has just announced that March 2016 was the best single month for sales yet. This is great news for the Bavarian automaker, which saw hearty numbers posted from across its model range, signaling the strength of its lineup moving forward. Overall, BMW saw an increase of 2.9% over the very high sales numbers of the same month last year.

BMW has never been a company to shy away from bold innovation and big concepts, which is why the recently announced BMW i3 Pick-Up Truck concept has piqued the interest of us here at Thompson BMW. While it won’t be available for purchase, the unique i3 vehicle will be adopted as a fast-delivery service car internally at BMW, much like the similarly styled BMW M3 Pick-Up concept from a few years ago.

The BMWs we know today are descended of jet engines, and that lineage shows up in a surprising way in some of the newest BMW models: Heads-Up display, similar to the kind found in today’s modern fighter jets. Check out the video below to see the system explained in detail, then come visit Thompson BMW to test it out for yourself.

Some executives prefer to drive, some prefer to be driven. Owners of the all-new BMW 750i xDrive will likely want to have it both ways, reports auto writer Tom Voelk of The New York Times, in a recent review.

The Ultimate Driving Machine does double-duty as the "ultimate riding machine," explains Voelk. Behind the wheel, drivers will appreciate the powerful 4.4-liter eight-cylinder engine - with two twin-scroll turbos - that rockets the sedan to 60 mph in just 4.3 seconds and the GPS-oriented eight-speed transmission...

Top shelf luxury models like the BMW 7 Series are in a class all their own. They exude the best an automaker is made of, and the most recent update to the Munich flagship is no different. However, some wanted more. They wanted more performance--an M7. In a way, BMW has answered their prayers with the Alpina B7 xDrive.
