BMWs 2012 fleet delivered to Olympics

BMW Group, the Official Automotive Partner to the London 2012 Olympic & Paralympic Games, has delivered the first 40 cars that will be used for this summer's Olympic and Paralympic Games in London.

The vehicles will form part of the full fleet to be used by LOCOG to help drive the Games. The fleet consists of electric, diesel, and hybrid cars, as well as a range of motorcycles and bicycles, and benefits from BMW's EfficientDynamics technologies meaning that it will achieve LOCOG's strict 120g CO2/km emissions target.

Amongst the first cars to arrive were the 520d EfficientDynamics and the 320d EfficientDynamics, both of which will be active throughout the course of the Games.
