  Since we are just consumers -in the 3rd world countries- few of those who drive BMW know the meaning of its logo!The company was established in 1913 and based in Munich, Germany. It started out as an aero engine manufacturer. The logo comprised of four quadrants of alternating white and blue color. It is a stylized representation of an airplane propeller spinning against the clear blue sky :)
After the world war II, BMW switched to produce car engines since Germany lost the war and agreed on freezing its military R&D firms until the end of the century.
BMW was allowed to get back to aero industry after 2001, but it seems like they found good clients to make car industry more feasible and effective!
I have visited BMW HQ and museum in Munich last year and I was inspired by the clean energy car as you can see in the second photo!

said:The Clean Energy Car from BMW, which is 750HL is using Hydrogen Energy instead of Petrol, producing 250 Hourse Power instead of 350 HP, which is amazing comparing to a car which uses an alternate fuel. The concept of this car fails because no country were encouraged to start an H2 Fuel Stations. I remember Dubai openening one H2 station in Jumeirah-Dubai but they closed it later & BMW fails to market this car. I think there is a lot of issues preventing the success of this idea.
