BMW Asia X1 to be the official car for SCMS 2012 for the 2nd year with the X1

BMW Asia announced on friday, it will be the official car for this year's Standard Chartered Marathon Singapore (SCMS) for the second consecutive year. BMW Asia will provide a fleet of more than twenty cars for medical, logistics and operational support. Moreover BMW Asia will offer a brand new BMW X1 sDrive20i as the winning prize for full and half marathon runners. 

"BMW is very excited to be the co-sponsor and official car of the Standard Chartered Marathon 2012 for the second consecutive year. Many may not realize that marathon running and BMW cars have so much in common. While marathon runners aim to cover as much distance with as little energy spent, BMW cars are engineered to achieve more power without compromising on fuel efficiency and CO2 emissions thanks to the Efficient Dynamics technology," says Mr Neil Fiorentinos, Managing Director of BMW Group Asia.

Stand a chance to win a brand new BMW X1 sDrive20i by joining Team BMW where running clinics and other activities will be provided to shape runners to their prime for the demanding SCMS 2012. BMW will also sponsor the pacers programme for full marathon runners that aids them to achieve their personal bests. All citizens and permanent residents of Singapore, whom are 18 and above (as per registration date) and signed up for either the full or half marathon category, have a chance to win the BMW X1 sDrive20i simply by registering for Team BMW.

The BMW X1 is a best-selling compact all-rounder with more than 300,000 units delivered worldwide complementing the many national and international prizes including a Red Dot Designed Award 2011 and 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating.
