Pioneering hydrogen tech since 1979 💡 Did you know that we’ve been working with hydrogen as a potential drive system for decades? These are some of our key milestones throughout history: 1979: A BMW 520 was converted into the first BMW test car to use liquid hydrogen as fuel. 2000: The first ever small series hydrogen car embarked on a "CleanEnergy World Tour" - an early hydrogen mobility showcase. 2014: The BMW 535iA Hydrogen was built to demonstrate zero local emissions, sporty dynamism, driving comfort, and long-distance suitability. 2023: A pilot fleet of the BMW iX5 Hydrogen took to cities around the world, including Melbourne, for testing and demonstration purposes. Our journey with hydrogen tech is still ongoing. Stay tuned. More here: https://b.mw/z1UG3 #BMWGroup #hydrogen #emobility #innovation

Innovation has played a key role in the BMW Group’s strategy throughout its 108-history, defining its products and position as a world leader in the automotive industry. The company’s people are the driving force behind this success, developing industry-first technologies and solutions that set BMW apart. One of those innovators is Sydney-born engineer, Dr. Stella Clarke, who has spearheaded a variety of advanced concepts, including the creative use of groundbreaking ‘E Ink’ technology, which allows a vehicle’s exterior colour to change with a simple swipe of a smartphone touchscreen. This technology made its debut in black and white on the award-winning BMW iX Flow at CES 2022, the world’s largest technology trade show, followed by the full-colour BMW i Vision Dee, presented one year later at the same show. This year, the technology was further developed to incorporate the vibrant Ndebele designs from the 12th BMW Art Car, designed by artist Esther Mahlangu, showcased on the BMW i5 Flow Nostokana. Last week, Dr. Clarke was in Melbourne to meet and engage with our employees, dealers, and inspire the next generation of Australian designers and engineers from Korowa Anglican Girls' School, Monash University, University of Melbourne, and RMIT University. She shared her personal and career journey and offered insights into the research and engineering process behind her innovative use of ‘E Ink’ technology to change the colour of a product. At BMW Group, innovation is at the heart of everything we do. Through initiatives like this, we remain committed to fostering a culture of innovation and excellence within our organisation and the community in which we operate.
