A worldwide innovation for the convertible driver
Apart from refined paintwork colours, high-quality wood rim and innovative technical solutions, BMW Individual focuses in particular on the finest leather with the grab handle remaining in natural leather and with exclusive colours. And now a new development by BMW Individual offers the aficionado of open-air motoring in a convertible an enormous increase in motoring comfort – SunReflective Technology.
The open-air motoring fan has to endure the same experience time and again: You park your car in the sun with the roof open and the leather on the seats as well as the steering wheel becomes unpleasantly hot and hard to touch.
This problem is now solved by SunReflective Technology used for the first time ever in the automobile industry: Special treatment of the leather naturally maintaining its superior features and qualities reflects direct sunlight in the invisible waveband. As a result, the surfaces do not become as hot as usual and maintain a pleasantly low temperature.
Particularly large differences in temperature (25 °C and more) versus conventional leather are ensured especially with dark leather colours, depending on the intensity of sunshine. Even with light colours, the differences in temperature achieved are quite noticeable.
