BMW adds Paramount+ to in-car entertainment offer
October 15, 2024 12.56 Europe/London By Jörn Krieger

BMW Group is bringing the streaming service Paramount+ to its cars.

The owners of vehicles with BMW or MINI Operating System 9 are able to stream Paramount+ content offerings on the control display whenever the vehicle is stationary, for example during charging stops or breaks on longer journeys, allowing them to watch blockbusters, originals and shows such as Star Trek Discovery.

The content automatically switches off again for safety reasons when the journey resumes. Paramount+ is available in conjunction with BMW Digital Premium or the MINI Connected Package and launches in Austria, France, Germany, Italy, UK, USA, and Switzerland (the Paramount+ subscription is not included in the packages).

The Paramount+ content offerings are accesible via the Video App (DTS AutoStage Video Service Powered by TiVo) in the latest infotainment systems of BMW and MINI. The Video App brings together video content from a wide range of providers, including news and live or on-demand shows.

A number of streaming services are available internationally, including Paramount+, Pluto TV, Bloomberg, TED, Yahoo! and Chili. These are accompanied by market-specific streaming services.
