BMW Teams Up with Paramount+ to Enhance In-Car Streaming Options

— October 11, 2024 — Autos
BMW has partnered with Paramount+ to enhance the in-car entertainment experience for BMW and MINI drivers. This partnership allows owners of vehicles equipped with the BMW or MINI Operating System 9 to access a broad range of Paramount+ content, including movies, series, and exclusive original programming, directly on their vehicle's control display.

For safety reasons, streaming is disabled once the car is in motion. Paramount+ subscribers can enjoy popular titles such as Star Trek: Discovery, Tulsa King, and franchises like Knuckles and Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. In addition to on-demand entertainment, the platform offers live sports and news coverage.

This integration is available through the Video App on BMW and MINI's latest infotainment systems, which also access to other streaming services, including Pluto TV, Bloomberg, TED, Yahoo!, and Chili.
