BMW Group Malaysia has taken a bold step forward in redefining premium mobility with the official unveiling of the New BMW iX xDrive60 M Sport Pro and the New Locally Assembled BMW X5 xDrive40i M Sport at The Art of Driving 2025. Held during one of Malaysia’s most prestigious golf events, the exclusive showcase highlights BMW’s commitment to “Technology Openness” and the “Power of Choice”—principles that continue to shape the brand’s approach to sustainable and innovative mobility.

Starting 25th July 2025, Malaysians can experience these new models—alongside the BMW iX xDrive45 Sport—at all authorised BMW dealerships nationwide. “Luxury today means having the freedom to choose,” said Benjamin Nagel, Managing Director of BMW Group Malaysia. “Through the launch of our latest models—offering both petrol and electric drivetrains—we are giving Malaysians access to the future of mobility, rooted in our legacy of design, innovation, and sustainability.”

With this philosophy, BMW aims to expand its market-leading electric and combustion engine offerings while enhancing the overall ownership experience through after-sales innovations like Relax. We Care. and All In. Simply Smart.
