The collision occurred on Sunday evening when the customer lost control of a BMW 730Li, worth VND4.4 billion (US$197,384), and struck a street sign on Nhu Nguyet Street, Hai Chau District, Da Nang, distorting the hood of the vehicle and resulting in the bumper falling out, according to a police report.

The sedan, available in Viet Nam since March 2016, is a model of BMW’s 7 series and was part of a roadshow held by a dealer in Ho Chi Minh City for customers in Da Nang to test drive, the document said.

Local police have examined the site and found no fatalities, Lieutenant Colonel Ho Van Minh from Hai Chau District Traffic Police said.

“The incident caused no injuries because the driver was protected by the auto’s airbag and there was no one nearby,” the lieutenant colonel said.

According to local auto forums, the version features an inline four cylinder engine that produces 258 horsepower, which can accelerate from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour within 6.3 seconds.

BMW, headquartered in Munich, Germany, is a luxury vehicle, motorcycle, and engine manufacturing company founded in 1916.
