BMW has a new logo: completely fashionable or not bleeding?

installment?

BMW is facing the biggest image change since 1917-at least in terms of brand logos. Consistent with current trends, this situation is now presented in two dimensions, flat and somewhat bleeding-free. It has been decorated on the new BMW i4-but the farewell to the famous BMW logo is done in phases.

When the Tesla Model 3 rival BMW i4 Concept was unveiled, the new BMW logo was only seen. The Munich-based carmaker now officially presents the new badge in a press release. it says:

"The global launch of the new BMW brand design will begin on March 3, 2020. It will be implemented in all communication methods [online and offline] as well as in international trade exhibitions and events. The new logo is the new media brand image and will Use of existing logos on vehicles Not used on vehicles, neither internal or external labels at dealerships. Existing logos are still in use. "
