WELCOME TO THE VIRTUAL REAL WORLD

A groundbreaking innovation: the world’s first Driving Experience where the virtual and physical worlds merge and the vehicle itself becomes the controller.

A NEW BMW VIRTUAL REALITY EXPERIENCE WITH A DOSE OF M EXCITEMENT.

YOU CAN’T DO THIS IN YOUR LIVING ROOM

You’ll drive a BMW M car on an open track area that’s marked off with cones. Once you put on the virtual reality headset, a unique digital track will be displayed in front of you, and you’ll pilot the M car through this course. It’s a unique event that blurs the boundaries between technology and reality.

M Mixed Reality is led by professional driving instructors on a closed course, with customized vehicle technology specific to this Experience.

CHASE THE CHEESE

Our Rat Race course is set up on a slick diamond polished concrete skid pad and shaped like an oval. We’ll turn off the traction control, which will enable you to find the perfect balance of slip and grip.

EASY, TIGER

We get it – you want to catch the other car as you drive around the circle, but if you push too far, the car will spin out. Practice makes perfect, so take another lap and try to keep it under control.

A BUFFET OF EXCITEMENT

Enjoy a sample of the many BMWs we have at the Performance Center with our Performance Drive. You’ll take a turn in various BMW models and see what makes each unique.

Then, head to the track and rotate among various BMWs, driving each through tight corners and fast straightaways. It’s a ride you won’t soon forget. Vehicles are subject to change.
