BMW, whose full Chinese name is Bayerische Motoren Werke AG, is a German luxury automobile brand. BMW's vehicle lineup includes the i, X, Z, and pure numeric series (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8), as well as the M series (BMW's official high-performance modification division) which is based on improvements to these series. BMW's logo features a circular design divided into four quadrants, with two white and two blue symmetrical sectors, creating a harmonious overall appearance. The blue and white emblem symbolizes Bavaria, as the state flag of Bavaria features blue and white stripes.
