Verizon debuts in-car connectivity in select BMW models

Verizon Business has launched Connected Car by Verizon in-car connectivity service for select BMW models in the U.S., offering voice, data, unlimited Wi-Fi hotspot connectivity and additional features for $20 per month.

The service includes connected car voice, data, Wi-Fi and personalized in-car connectivity features managed through the My BMW app

That means BMW drivers and passengers can enjoy infotainment, music, mobile hotspot and more powered by the Verizon network, America’s most awarded for network quality, 30 times in a row by J.D. Power.

Verizon customers can also now enjoy two personalized connectivity features that can be managed through the My BMW app:

Multi-Vehicle Connect, which allows Verizon customers to access their personalized BMW driver preferences and data plan (settings, voice, Wi-Fi, etc.) in up to three compatible BMW models paired to their plan.

Number Share - Vehicle, enabled by BMW eSIM, which allows Verizon customers to pair -- i.e., share the number of -- their phone with their vehicle and then make and receive calls without the phone being in the car.
