BMW Presents Smart Charging System at CES
BMW recently presented the concept of BMW i Home Charging services at the Consumer Electronics Show CES in Las Vegas. Through this system, drivers of BMW i models are offered a new smart charging solution that will better optimize charging costs, saving everyone a significant amount of money overall.
The system works by having the vehicle automatically draw energy when charging from home generated solar power. In situations where the consumer does not have a home solar power system, the vehicle will be charged at the cheapest off-peak rate no matter what time of day you are charging. With this new system, customers can save as much as $800/ year on charging services.
“With Home Charging Services, BMW is the first vehicle manufacturer to offer such a broad-based EV smart charging product,” says BMW Project Manager Julian Lienich. “Our aim is to make mobility as cheap as possible for users and to allow them to maximise their use of green power – but without having to organise everything themselves.”
BMW plans to have this new EV smart charging system available to customers beginning in 2016.

BMW’s New Social Media Campaign
The Kirshenbaum Bond Senecal + Partners agency is helping to promote BMW with a new social campaign and website named “Snowchat”. It was inspired by snapchat, the highly popular application that is used by millions of people.
The site features the new BMW X4, which is aimed at a younger market demographic. The website lets people wipe away the windshield and draw different shapes and messages. It can then be shared across social media sites like Facebook or Twitter. Like Snapchat, the image will disappear after 5 seconds.
“We wanted to keep it very simple and tap into behavior that’s already out there with people who are online and using their phones,” said Paul Renner, executive creative director at Kirshenbaum Bond Senecal.
