Thank you, road.

Gear shift indicator in the BMW X1.

Changing through the gears of a BMW has always been part of what makes the driving experience so thrilling. Thanks to the gear shift indicator, you can greatly improve your fuel efficiency, too. A dashboard display highlights the best gear to select for the greatest possible economy. But the system also recognizes a desire for rapid acceleration, in which case the indicator will kick in at a higher rpm range. Following its recommendation and changing at the right time significantly reduces the amount of fuel you use and the emissions you generate.
