BMW unveils i-collection accessories with eco-friendly credentials


After successfully launching i3 and i8, BMW has rolled out a lifestyle accessories line-up based on the ‘i’ sub-brand. Named the ‘BMW i collection,’ the accessories stick to the eco-friendly character marked by the Bavarian automaker’s i-brand sharing the same vision. Unlike the usual accessory collections launched by luxury carmakers exhibiting panache and opulence, the BMW i collection has premium yet utilitarian and everyday items in the list.

The BMW i notebook is accompanied by a BMW i ball-point pen, and all the items are highlighted with the color blue and have BMW i insignia marked on it.
