Trico wipers OE on a range of new BMWs

Original equipment wiper blade manufacturer, Trico, has announced that its rear arm and wiper blade have been chosen for the new BMW X1, 2 Series Active Tourer and iX models. The blade and arm use a completely new design that has been developed by Trico engineers specifically for these vehicles. The wiper uses a beam blade for maximum windscreen contact and the arm design is lower and flatter than previous versions, with a cleaner integration between arm and blade, resulting in increased visibility through the rear windscreen.
