BMW buffs wait for test drive

BMW India recently launched the second edition of the BMW Experience Tour in India, the experience which started in Kolkata and will make its pitstop in Vijayawada today and then will head to Hyderabad on Thursday. With the Experience Tour 2015 BMW will demonstrate the dynamism, versatility and high performance of the entire BMW product portfolio in 18 cities across the nation. Customers will have an opportunity to experience the complete range of BMW sedans and SAVs (Sports Activity Vehicle) on a specially designed test course.

Philipp von Sahr, President, BMW Group India said, "BMW Experience Tour provides our customers a first-hand experience of the exhilarating performance and superiority of BMW vehicles in a challenging and exciting environment. They are able to appreciate the versatile capabilities, technology, safety systems and features of our cars in detail.

Apart from having fun on the test track, they also benefit from the professional advice of the BMW Driving Experts on how to make day-to-day driving safer." Customers will have the opportunity to test-drive the BMW 1 Series, the BMW 3 Series, the BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo, the BMW 5 Series, the BMW 7 Series, the BMW X1 and the BMW Z4 through exercises like slalom, fast laps, corner braking and emergency braking.

The BMW 7 Series Individual and the BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe will be on special display. If you were wondering what happened to the M Performace cars, well, they're part of the deal too. The M3 Sedan, M4 Coupe, M5 Sedan and M6 Gran Coupe are also part of this exercise. And of course there is the X range too.

The X6, X5 and X3 can all be driven under the expert guidance of BMW trainers. For kids who still cannot get behind the wheel of a real car, there will be a section which will feature a special 'Sony PlayStation Zone' where children can enjoy driving BMW cars in the virtual world with Sony PlayStation3.
