BMW’s British small car brand MINI will soon sell its plug-in hybrid car when the new Countryman arrives in UK showrooms next year. The car maker is set to unveil its new-generation Countryman crossover at the Los Angeles Auto Show, which runs November 18 to 27, 2016. The hybrid will share much in common with the BMW 225xe Plug-in Hybrid; the cars have been developed alongside each other by parent company BMW and will both offer a range of engines, including a battery-assisted 1.5-litre turbocharged three-cylinder petrol engine.

German car giant BMW unveiled its futuristic self-driving Vision Next 100 concept car as the company celebrates its 100th birthday in Munich, Monday.

BMW showed off a concept car Wednesday that has no mirrors. The rear-view and side-view mirrors in the i8 are replaced by three cameras and a special screen to show drivers what's behind and around their cars. The i8 concept car was unveiled during the CES in Las Vegas. Two of the cameras are on the exterior of the car where side mirrors are normally located. But the struts that hold the cameras are significantly slimmer than existing designs.

At CES today, I watched a man wave an empty car into an open parking spot. But that's old hat, really. Self-parking cars have been around for a while, and I even served as a hapless passenger in a self-parking BMW i3 last year. Science fiction brushes up with the auto industry so regularly these days — not just in concept form, but in production — that eliciting a genuine jaw-drop is nearly impossible.

German tuner Gabura creates the V8i, and Munich's high-tech hybrid sports car devolves into an 800-horsepower beast.

Tesla Motors isn't the only innovative car company. BMW's latest 7 Series car is a technological triumph.

Focusing on driving dynamics and technology has kept BMW at the top for six generations.

BMW has always been known for creating top-notch performance vehicles and the M series is their crowing jewel. The company continues to push the boundaries of design and performance with the BMW Concept M4 GTS, a powerful car for use on the road and, above all, on the race track.

A group of German auto makers agreed to pay slightly more than €2.5 billion ($2.7 billion) for Nokia’s digital mapping service, prevailing over Silicon Valley bidders in a battle for a key enabling technology for self-driving cars. German luxury car makers Audi, a unit of Volkswagen AG, Mercedes-Benz parent Daimler AG, and BMW AG have agreed in principle to purchase the telecommunications group’s digital mapping service Nokia Here, according to a person familiar with the situation.

At its "Innovation Day" in France, BMW unveiled a prototype 5 Series GT that uses a hydrogen fuel cell to power its electric motor.

German auto maker BMW says it is recalling 91,800 Mini Coopers to fix a defect that may prevent the air bag on the front passenger side of the cars from deploying in a crash.

Mercedes-Benz this year is rolling out the new GLE coupe crossover to challenge the BMW AG's X6 as it refreshes most of its sport-utility.
