The system, which uses BMW Motorrad Connected Services, can put you in touch with an employee when a crash is detected or the SOS switch is pressed. Once connected, the situation can be discussed and the emergency services can be alerted if necessary.
The eCall system has been a standard feature here in Europe for quite a few years now, but apparently that was not yet the case in the United States and Canada. Until now, because for 2024 BMW Motorrad has also rolled it out for the North American continent.
