BMW Group wins awards from private and business drivers

BMW and MINI have won the same category awards from What Car? and BusinessCar magazine, proving that MINI, BMW 5 Series and BMW 3 Series models are the right solution for private and business drivers alike.

BusinessCar awarded the new MINI Cooper ‘Best Supermini’ for the fifth time, polling nearly double the votes of its nearest rival. What Car? chose the MINI Cooper S for its ‘Hot Hatch’ award and highlighted the new model changes making it a “…far more comfortable proposition, so you can buy it with your head as well as your heart.”

The BMW 3 Series won awards in the ‘Compact Executive’ category. It was a case of third time around from BusinessCar, while What Car? called it the “…benchmark car for this class in so many areas.”

“The BMW 525i SE Auto does it all,” said What Car? when they awarded it their ‘Best Executive Car’ for the 11th time in 12 years. BusinessCar highlighted impressive resale values, low running costs and lower emissions meaning tax savings for company drivers.
