Change is inevitable. Sometimes it brings trepidation, especially when you’re bringing a best-selling BMW SUV into a new generation. But as the 2019 BMW X5 ultimately proves, change can also be a very good thing. Let’s take a closer look at what to expect when this popular people-hauler arrives at BMW of Silver Spring.

Nobody likes to wait. Ask the average car shopper when they’d like the latest BMW model and the answer would usually be “Right now, but yesterday would be lovely.” But one of the most-anticipated BMW model debuts won’t come for another three years — not that it’s any less anticipated for that. It’s the BMW iNEXT, due 2021 at BMW of Silver Spring.

This time of year always brings an influx of buyers to car dealerships near Columbia, MD. BMW of Silver Spring has helped many first-time buyers and lessees, some of whom were buying their first car, getting their first new vehicle after years’ worth of buying used, or starting life’s next new chapter in style. 

When you think “public transportation,” odds are that your mind goes to crowded buses and poorly-maintained terminals rather than the height of luxury. The Virgin Hyperloop, championed by billionaire Richard Branson, aims to change that perception. Graceful design is a significant part of that experience, and has something in common with the vehicles here at BMW of Silver Spring.

Car ownership is changing. As it does, car companies have two choices: wait for the dust to settle, or get out in front. As it so often does, BMW AG is choosing the latter option and in the process, shaping the car subscription model in its own image. It hasn’t come to BMW of Silver Spring yet, but we’re encouraged by what we see so far.

Earlier this year, we questioned the future prospects of the BMW i3 and BMW i8. The intervening months have brought the long-term electrification plans for BMW AG into sharper focus. If you’re thinking of visiting BMW of Silver Spring in search of an electric car, there are a few things you should know.

At BMW of Silver Spring, we’ve always been proud of the innovative BMW cars we sell, the company that builds them, and the people who back them. A recent initiative by BMW AG is about to make each of those things even better, especially for members of the armed services transitioning back to civilian life. 

A recent Digital Trends interview with Adrian van Hooydonk, head of design for the BMW Group, is a worthwhile read. It lays out some of the future cars coming from BMW AG, and the design language that’s emerging with them. It’s also a preview of coming attractions for what’s on the way to BMW of Silver Spring.
