BMW explains how to say "BMW" in different languages
Great video by BMW on how to correctly pronounce its name in German and other languages.
https://www.bmw.com/en/automotive-li...unciation.html So now, how do I pronounce X7 in German? |

^This! I think alphanumeric names are great because of this, it doesn't need to be translated. That said, why do we make up new names for places in different languages, BMW is based in München, not Munich. Munich isn't a place it's just a name that English made up.

Odd, they did not have someone pronouncing it English (or even the Queen's English).
Of course Mercedes could have some fun with the advert. How does one say BMW? Mer-Cee-Dez :-). |
