BMW equips Korean-style navigation based on Tmap... Applied from X1 model
BMW Group Korea announced on the 14th that starting this month, models sold domestically will be equipped with a Korean-style BMW navigation system based on TMAP. The first models to feature the new navigation system are the BMW X1 and 2 Series Active Tourer.
Since 2019, BMW Group Korea has been applying TMAP Mobility's online POI (Point of Interest) data and real-time traffic information to BMW and MINI vehicles operating in Korea.
In the same year, BMW Group began collaborating with TMAP Mobility to develop a navigation system tailored to Korean terrain and customers. The TMAP-based Korean BMW navigation system, which is being fully introduced this year, significantly enhances convenience. In particular, map information is provided via online streaming, eliminating the need for separate map updates. All guidance information, including the latest traffic conditions, is updated in real time, and route guidance is linked to the head-up display to minimize the driver’s eye movement.

When this navigation system is installed in electrified models, it provides optimal routes considering the destination, remaining vehicle battery, charging station information, and traffic conditions. Functions that consider model characteristics are also supported, such as activating the battery preheating feature when a charging station is set as the destination. The new Korean BMW navigation system is also scheduled to be installed in the BMW New X2 and New MINI models, which are set to be released in the second quarter.

Through this, drivers can enjoy a digital experience optimized for their individual lifestyles.
