BMW will supply 60 electric vehicles for the Open de España presented by Madrid, held October 8–11 at Club de Campo Villa de Madrid. The event will spotlight the new BMW i3 and the first fully electric BMW iX5.
Golfers and fans arriving at Club de Campo Villa de Madrid this October will see something new. BMW is rolling out 60 electric vehicles for the Open de España presented by Madrid. The tournament runs from October 8 to 11. This is one of Spain’s biggest golf events.
BMW is not just putting its logo on the banners. The company is sending its full electric fleet to handle every ride at the tournament. Players, officials, and VIPs will all travel in BMW’s latest models. The new BMW i3 will make its first appearance as the second car in the Neue Klasse series. The BMW iX5, a fully electric version of the X5, will also be there. Both cars will be on display for fans to check out up close.
According to the official DP World Tour calendar, the Open de España presented by Madrid is scheduled for October 8–11, 2026, in Madrid.
The Open de España is part of the DP World Tour. In recent years, the tournament has pushed for more sustainable practices in pro golf. BMW’s electric fleet is now a key part of that effort. The goal is simple: cut emissions and show that green mobility works at major events. BMW’s move fits a bigger trend in the car industry. Spain’s auto sector has seen similar steps, including the Leapmotor B10 rollout, as reported by industry sources.
There’s more for fans than just a ride. The "Hoyo en Uno" challenge is back. This year, anyone who scores a hole-in-one will win a BMW iX5. That’s a big prize. BMW wants its electric cars to be seen as something special, not just another way to get around.
BMW has worked with the Open de España before. This year, the focus on electric cars is bigger than ever. The company wants to show real progress in technology and sustainability. For Spain, this is a sign that electric cars are moving from the sidelines to the center of both sports and daily life. The message is clear. Electric is here to stay.
The DP World Tour consistently features the Open de España as a key event in its international schedule, emphasizing its importance not only for Spanish golf but also for the broader European sporting calendar. The tournament is recognized for its strong commercial and media profile, as well as its commitment to sustainability initiatives.
