BMW has doubled down on its promise of a more sustainable future by committing to deliver 25 electrified models on road by 2023. Die-hard fans however, have mixed feelings about this transition because they will miss the roaring sounds of the BMW M combustion engine. How could we ease our primary customer base into an entirely new era, while still giving them a chance to hold on to what they love most about our current generation of cars.

We invited BMW M owners for a unique opportunity to immortalize the sounds of their cars forever. The throaty roars of their engines were recorded on location at Dubai Autodrome and turned into NFTs with unique art renditions to pair with the audio. This collection titled BMW Museum of Sound was launched on opensea.io, the largest peer to peer NFT marketplace to be preserved forever, creating perpetual value and nostalgia for owners and fans.

The ownership of the NFTs have been transferred to the drivers and will perpetually create value for the holders over and above the nostalgic sentiment, by unlocking exclusive experiences and previews from the brand. The 1 of 1 ethically-created NFTs were minted using an environmentally friendly blockchain. They are quite coveted by collectors on opensea.io.

BMW became the first auto brand to successfully launch an NFT of this kind. Even the most seasoned critiques of the NFT world were impressed by the clever use of the engine sounds to create an NFT that’s more than just a fad. And for our die-hard fans, (past, present and future) we created an entirely new way to celebrate their love for our cars. The campaign has garnered press coverage worth millions, and more importantly, the applications for test driving the upcoming electric models have seen a massive spike (+45%) since the launch.
