BMW noticed Google's pushing into the (self-driving) car business. That's what their trademark complaint's based on.

Kind of hard not to.

BMW hasn't filed a trademark complaint. They haven't even indicated that they think that there is a violation. They have said they are looking into whether any infringement has taken place, which is many miles short of having a complaint.
