The donated vehicles will be used for a range of purposes, including preventive patrols in fire-prone areas, support at large-scale event sites, providing and installing firefighting supplies for vulnerable groups, assisting residents affected by fires, providing administrative support at the scene, and operating safety education programs for citizens.


BMW Group Korea decided to make this donation to express its support for firefighters and fire organizations who are dedicated to public safety.


Han Sangyun, President and CEO of BMW Group Korea, stated, "I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the firefighters who are devoted to protecting the lives and safety of the public," and added, "As a corporate citizen in Korea, we will continue to fulfill our social responsibilities and work together with the public safety sector, including the Incheon Fire Headquarters."



Meanwhile, BMW Group Korea has been continuing its cooperative activities in the field of fire safety. In 2024, the company provided driving training to emergency medical technicians from Incheon fire stations at the BMW Driving Center in Yeongjongdo, Incheon, and last year, conducted electric vehicle fire response and fire safety training for Incheon firefighters. In addition, BMW Group Korea provided a training vehicle for the "Firefighter Electric Vehicle Safety Rescue Seminar" hosted by the Korea Transportation Safety Authority in Jeju.
