BMW Tops Corporate Sustainability for Second Straight Year

BMW number one in corporate sustainability for second year


Munich, Germany - The BMW Group has been named the top automotive industry leader in corporate sustainability, as measured by the current evaluation of the Dow Jones Sustainability Indexes (DJSI). It is the second consecutive year BMW has been so named; the company is also the only one in the sector to have been listed in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index World and in the European Dow Jones Sustainability STOXX Index without a break, since the establishment of the index in 1999.

The Zurich-based SAM Group analyzes 2,500 companies each year in terms of their ecological, social and economic performances, and selects the best ten per cent for the Dow Jones Sustainability Index. Industry-specific challenges are also taken into account; in the automobile industry, these include climate change, ecological standards and social standards at supplier companies.

Excuse me Will?
My X5 has excellent quality.
I'd like to hear your reasons.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. The X5 has always had a very luxurious, if still somewhat spartan, interior for a BMW, and it is a LAST-GENERATION car.

The new generation of BMWs, however, have stylistically challanged interiors with apalling materials quality for a luxury brand.

I don't think so.
The loaner 530i I had had the same fit/finish/ quality.
