The BMW brand always had a reputation for innovative technology, much of which has made its way to models like the 2017 BMW 4 series. What kind of technology graces the modern German Vehicle? We'll go over the top technology implemented by the German automaker.

The brand is known for its EfficientDynamics system. This is a feature available in every modern BMW vehicle and designed to reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. It's also intended to improve aerodynamics. EfficientDynamics utilize a combination of technology and design innovations that include engine efficiency measures and lightweight construction. The BMW eDrive is also a part of this system. Finally, the aerodynamics of the vehicle is designed to maximize drag coefficient.

EfficientDynmics aside, the brand is also known for its ConnectedDrive system. This essentially serves as a digital travel companion of sorts. You can connect the system to your mobile device to access a number of features, such as Google Maps, real time traffic information, and instant access to an emergency call center.

Finally, there is the BMW Active Assist, which utilizes the latest in autonomous technology. The system partially takes over and drives by itself, allowing you to temporarily take your hands off the wheel. The BMW Active Assist has been in the works for several years now, and a prototype was unveiled at the 2014 Consumer Electronics Show. A demonstration was shown unveiling the system's ability to automatically steer the car back into its lane if the driver fails to notice he or she is gradually moving into the other lane.
