In 1916, the Flugmaschinenfabrik Gustav Otto company had merged into Bayerische Flugzeug-Werke AG (BFW) at government behest. Elsewhere, in 1917, the Rapp Motorenwerke company became Bayerische Motoren Werke GmbH, which was duly converted into an AG (public limited company) in 1918.From 1917, each of the company’s products proudly displayeds the BMW emblem.BMW AG subsequently transferred its engine construction operations – including the company and brand names – to BFW in 1922. The date of BFW’s founding, 7 March 1916, has therefore gone down in history as the foundation date of Bayerische Motoren Werke AG.BMW R32 – The First BMW Motorcycle.BMW announced its first motorcycle, the R 32, to great excitement in 1923. Until then the company had only supplied engines rather than complete vehicles. The basic concept of the original BMW Motorrad Model – a boxer engine with longitudinally positioned cylinders and shaft drive – continues to be employed in the company’s motorcycles to this day.The BMW 501 – The First Post War Car.BMW’s first post-war automobile was the 501, built from 1952 onwards. A large saloon capable of seating up to six people, it was powered by an enhanced version of the six-cylinder engine used in the pre-war BMW 326. As a luxury car, the BMW 501 was not a commercial success, but it nevertheless restored BMW’s status as a manufacturer of high-quality cars.

Refined angles and sophisticated contours, metal inserts, and side spoilers are the new elements that embellish sunglasses, which on some styles offer HI-CONTRAST lenses that are perfect for driving, thanks to glare protection and sharpness that make it possible to view LCD screens inside the car.
