Leading the class Recently refreshed with new design details, revised headlights and optional Laserlight tail lights, the BMW i4 continues to impress almost three years after its original debut, receiving the award for Best Premium Car. Business Car said: “Despite more EV and ICE-powered rivals, none can touch the BMW i4. Whether you go for the eDrive 35, or the range-topping M50, the excellent electric range is trustworthy, it oozes driver appeal, and it’s practical with the hatchback design.” Continuing its impressive 2024 winning streak, the BMW 5 Series
retains the top spot as Business Car’s Best Executive Car for the fi fth consecutive year. On presenting the gong, the judges said: “T e replacement for the last 5 Series had big shoes to fi ll, but whether you choose EV, PHEV, or ICE power, the i5/5 Series remains our executive pick. It looks great inside and out, there’s the additional choice of Touring estate versions, and all off er a keen drive.”
Rounding up the awards, the third generation BMW X1 solidifi es
its position as Business Car’s Best Premium Medium SUV, securing the title for the second year running. Judges described the model as ‘an attractive package’ with a ‘spacious interior’, ‘willing perfor- mance’ and ‘a great drive, plus the accomplished range for EV and plug-in versions equals low running costs’. Refl ecting on BMW Group’s success at this year’s awards, Matt
Collins, General Manager, Corporate Sales BMW Group UK, said: “We are incredibly proud to retain Business Car’s Fleet Manufacturer of the Year title for a third consecutive year. T is is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the Corporate Sales team, who continue to strive for excellence in serving the evolving needs of our corporate customers. We’re equally delighted by the recognition MINI has received at this year’s awards – it’s a real honour for the MINI Cooper to be crowned overall Business Car of the Year. T e additional four category wins really are the icing on the cake.”
