Minimax (2 kg, ABC powder) with BMW mounting bracket on the driver's seat.
Regardless of brand, automotive on-board types are either ABC or BC, typically 1 or 2 kg.
I've kept one in nearly all of my cars over the years. I slowed down an under hood fire years ago, in time for the fire department to arrive and fully stop the fire. Car was a write-off but the owner realized that he was fine and that the danger was minimized.
Unfortunately very few countries require this (Belgium still does, UK did many years ago, not required in our very safety conscious Switzerland). I know that somewhere, sometime, that I'll help someone who doesn't have one.
