If you are new to buying a BMW, here's a simple breakdown of things you need to know to make

the research and buying process a little easier.

BMW has a knack for naming things.

Everything.

Especially when it comes to categorization within the brand.

Here are a couple of names you need to know.

BMW M GmbH.

These are their ultimate performance vehicles inspired by motorsport.

This includes the M2, M3, M4, and so on.

Then, there's BMW M Performance.

These can almost be described as half M cars.

They're a lot more everyday than M cars but a lot sportier than their regular counterparts.

For example, the M240i is an M Performance 2-series—notice the M before the badge?

It's a lot more performance-focused than the 230i.

On that note, anything M Sport simply means it has elements that have been borrowed from

the M division for added performance onto the regular model.

BMW i.

This is all of their electric vehicles including the i3 and the i8.

BMW iPerformance.

These are the plug-in hybrid electric vehicles that includes, for example, the 330e and the

530e sedans.

BMW Individual is a collection of personalized cosmetic features whether it be paint or leather

options that are a lot more exclusive than the standard options.

And, if you've ever wondered what the letters after a nameplate mean, here's a breakdown:

d means it has a diesel engine.

i means it has a fuel-injected gas engine.

L means it's a long wheelbase vehicle.

And lastly, x or xDrive refers to BMW's all-wheel drive system which they call xDrive.

And when it comes to body styles within the 2- to 8-series, odd numbers typically mean

it's a sedan while even numbers typically mean that it's a coupe.

When it comes to body style names, gone are the days where automakers would refer to their

cars strictly as sedans, coupes, or SUVs.

BMW's lineup includes a couple of interesting body styles aside from the regular ones which

includes:

Gran Coupe: This is a four-door sedan with a sweeping roofline like a coupe.

Cabriolet: This means convertible.

Gran Turismo: Gran Turismos are sedans, but the chassis is raised slightly and the roof

is higher which gives it a bit of an SUV type of look with a hatchback trunk.

Touring: This is a station wagon.

S. Korea to complete investigation on cause of BMW car fires by December : Transport ministry - Duration: 1:53.

Concerns grow over the safety of BMW cars here in Korea, due to the recent string of

accidents involving its models.

The government announced plans to unravel the exact cause of the blazes before the year

is up.

Kim Mok-yeon sheds light on the measures.

A high ranking official from the transport ministry said the Korean government will work

towards finding the exact cause behind BMW vehicles in Korea catching fire while on the

road since last December.

During a parliamentary hearing held on Tuesday, Kim Jeong-ryeol , the second vice minister

of the transport ministry said that… the government will not just focus its investigation

on the exhaust gas recirculation module, or EGR, but also look into other possible defects.

The German automaker previously pointed at the EGR, a device used to reduce nitrogen

oxide emissions from diesel engines… as the main cause of the recent fires.

The vice minister said that the ministry will hold an extensive probe into the matter by

also looking at the software and by testing the cars on the road.

He also pledged to actively improve the current recall system and to strengthen punitive measures

against manufacturers,... especially when they are found concealing any defect on their

product or delaying the recall process.

The hearing was attended by lawmakers from the National Assembly's Land, Infrastructure

& Transport Committee, government officials, car experts and officials representing the

German carmaker.

At the beginning of the hearing, BMW Korea chairman Kim Hyo-jun apologized before the

public for causing anxiety and concern over the recent fires and said that the company

is working in all aspects to prevent the recurrence of such problems.

Regarding the cause of the vehicle blazes, Kim said that the fires were likely caused

by the concurrent occurrence of multiple conditions in addition to the EGR problem, such as the

driving speed and travel time of the vehicle.
