Apple watch, set to be launched in early 2015, is already working with BMW, or BMW is working with Apple, either way, to create an App that acts as interface / instrument console or beyond with new BMW i3 and more cars in future. During Apple Watch unveil, BMW i App was previewed showing battery charge level of fully electric BMW i3, along with estimated range remaining (miles) and doors locked notification. There are 8 screens in BMW i App, which would have detailed information on the car such as usage statistics, diagnostics and infotainment system control. BMW i App is also expected to have the facility of pinning down location of where the car was parked and guide the user to the location.
Soon, rest of luxury car manufacturers like Mercedes Benz and Audi could join the game and bring whole new level of interactive features between Apple Watch and their pride on wheels, setting off a new trend in the market.
