Home > General > BMW will widely use Bluetooth in 2005

BMW brought us the Bluetooth Helmet not so long ago.

They feel that it is time to adopt the technology as a standard in their cars.

Most of the 2005 models will come up Bluetooth-Enabled. The main use for Bluetooth is hands-free calling, but one could imagine other applications such as GPS and Music broadcasting.

Which vehicles come with Bluetooth?
Bluetooth is standard equipment on the 2005 5 and 6 Series models as well as the M3 Convertible and X5 4.8is. It is included in all other vehicles equipped with BMW Assist or a Premium Package. It is not offered on the 7 Series, which comes standard with a fully integrated portable cell phone. Some early production 2005 model 3 Series cars are not equipped with Bluetooth. Consult a BMW center for specific availability.

Which phones are compatible?
In order to ensure a high degree of customer satisfaction BMW tests all available Bluetooth phones on the market. Only after a phone passes a variety of compatibility tests is it approved. Therefore not all available Bluetooth phones are compatible with BMW’s Bluetooth option. BMW centers will have a complete list of all approved phones for every major cellular service provider.
