What is the advantage of BMW Assist compared to a cellular phone?

Unlike a cell phone with a small battery, BMW Assist is powered by the vehicle’s robust 12-volt system. BMW Assist is therefore ready as long as the vehicle’s battery is functional. With a full three watts of available transmission power, the BMW Assist system has up to 5 times more strength than a conventional cell phone’s 0.6 watts maximum. Further, the rooftop antenna offers improved reception and transmission capability and broad wireless coverage is assured since BMW Assist has contracted with a major domestic wireless carrier and selected partners to offer comprehensive cellular coverage of Canada and the USA.
