WHAT ARE THE BASIC REQUIREMENTS?

• The vehicle will be titled and registered in the business or company name.

DO I NEED TO OPERATE A LARGE FLEET?
DO I NEED TO OPERATE A LARGE FLEET?
No.
BMW’s current small business fleet program does not specify a minimum company size based on number of employees or business revenue.
The program is intended for eligible business customers who meet BMW’s current fleet and documentation requirements.
You do not need to purchase a large number of vehicles at once to participate.
HOW MANY VEHICLES CAN I PURCHASE OR LEASE?
HOW MANY VEHICLES CAN I PURCHASE OR LEASE?
Eligible small business customers may purchase or lease between 1 and 4 qualifying BMW vehicles under the Small Business Fleet Program.
If your business needs 5 or more vehicles, BMW Northwest can help connect you with BMW’s standard Corporate Fleet Program.
HOW DOES THE SMALL BUSINESS FLEET INCENTIVE WORK?
HOW DOES THE SMALL BUSINESS FLEET INCENTIVE WORK?
Small business fleet incentives vary depending on the BMW model and model year.
When applicable, the small business fleet program incentive is applied directly as a reduction in the vehicle’s selling price. It is not a rebate that you receive later.
Your BMW Northwest Client Advisor can review the current incentive available for the BMW you are considering.
Program incentives and eligibility can change, so all offers are verified using the current BMW program guidelines at the time of your transaction.
WHAT INFORMATION WILL I NEED TO PROVIDE?
Depending on the transaction, you may be asked to provide:
