BMW cars have long been Google-fied what with the Google Maps made available but it’s only recently that actual “Googling” is made possible. Thanks to EDGE or GPRS connectivity and AT&T, 2009 Bimmer models will get the ever-reliable Google search bar and Google Maps.
The BMW Google car will also feature Bluetooth connectivity to allow the directions to be sent to the car’s navigation system.
Rate for this Google features is at $199 per year. Expensive for a car feature but if you’re a BMW owner, that amount is simply nothing. Right?
