Please contact your local dealer for country specifi c information. Sheer Driving Pleasure BMW EfficientDynamics Less emissions. More driving pleasure. The most sustainable car manufacturer in the world: the BMW Group has now been ranked sector leader in the respected Dow Jones Sustainability Indexes for a remarkable seventh year in a row. The company has also received a host of accolades for its unique BMW EfficientDynamics programme. It was, for example, the first to win the “Grüne Lenkrad” (Green Steering Wheel), one of the most important awards for environmental protection in the automotive arena. This, for BMW, is simply further motivation to continue in the pursuit of visionary ideas. With BMW i, for example, clear sustainability targets have already been established for the early strategy and design phases. BMW EfficientDynamics. LESS FUEL CONSUMPTION. MORE DYNAMICS. The goal of EfficientDynamics is to combine efficiency with driving pleasure and to continuously move closer towards sustainability and emissions-free mobility. Intelligent energy management is one significant step in this direction. This, along with lightweight construction plus aerodynamics and engine efficiency measures mean that sustainability can actually be experienced today. What’s more, every BMW features the latest BMW EfficientDynamics technologies as standard. BMW TwinPower Turbo technology, the Auto Start/Stop function and ECO PRO mode are just a few of many examples. As for our innovative drive systems, we have developed BMW ActiveHybrid technology, the BMW Hydrogen with hydrogen drive and the electrically powered BMW ActiveE. Other new concepts for electro-mobility include the BMW i (Megacity Vehicle) and the BMW i. These are based on existing BMW EfficientDynamics measures combined with innovations in intelligent lightweight construction, such as the use of carbon. The reward for all this engineering enterprise is a significant reduction in fuel consumption and emissions united with enhanced performance and even more driving pleasure. 116d1 3.8 l/100 km (99 g CO2/km) 85 kW (116 hp) Editorial BEST IN CLASS WITH g CO/km. Anyone driving the new BMW d EfficientDynamics will find it hard to believe that it only emits g of CO per km. Thanks to intelligent measures that noticeably reduce emissions and fuel consumption while simultaneously increasing driving performance, it sets new standards for efficiency and performance. POWERED BY EFFICIENCY. THE JOYS OF TECHNOLOGY. PUTTING INNOVATION ON THE ROAD. BMW TwinPower Turbo petrol engines Auto Start/Stop function BMW eDrive Aerodynamics BMW ActiveE BMW TwinPower Turbo diesel engines Intelligent lightweight construction BMW i BMW BluePerformance Brake Energy Regeneration, tyres with reduced rolling-resistance BMW ActiveHybrid ECO PRO mode Optimum Shift Indicator, Electric Power Steering The BMW principle. BMW Hydrogen Best in class from BMW The innovative power of BMW EfficientDynamics is standard in every BMW, but it comes across even more distinctively in the special BMW EfficientDynamics models. The core principle is simple – minimise losses and maximise energy use. This is done by systems such as Brake Energy Regeneration, ECO PRO mode and the Auto Start/Stop function. Longer transmission ratios and the Optimum Shift Indicator also support highly economical driving. With the BMW d EfficientDynamics, for instance, this means average consumption of only . l/ km and extremely low CO emissions of g/km. Thanks to EfficientDynamics, the BMW Group has now reduced the CO emissions of its new vehicles sold in Europe by per cent and BMW models (as of /) now emit no more than g/CO per kilometre. No other manufacturer has been able to reduce the emissions of its fleet as dramatically and as quickly while simultaneously achieving a noticeable increase in driving dynamics – proof that environmentally-friendly mobility and driving pleasure are an excellent match. By , the BMW Group aims to reduce the CO emissions of its entire fleet by at least a further per cent. 04 05 www.bmw.com/EfficientDynamics BMW d EfficientDynamics edition. BMW TwinPower Turbo petrol engines. X3 xDrive35i 8.8 l/100km (204 g CO2/km) 225 kW (306 hp) BMW TWIN POWER TURBO – FULL SPEED TOWARDS GREATER EFFICIENCY AND DYNAMICS. The combination of driving pleasure and efficiency is entering a new dimension. And the evidence can be seen in the BMW petrol engines with BMW TwinPower Turbo technology. This innovations package – a new milestone in the BMW EfficientDynamics strategy – ensures a new optimum of economy and dynamics thanks to the latest fuel injection systems, fully variable valve timing and innovative turbocharging technology. The new BMW i Saloon features an overall concept designed to optimise energy use. BMW TwinPower Turbo technology already satisfies the BMW EfficientDynamics development goal: it not only reduces fuel consumption by up to per cent and cuts emissions – it also gives the BMW’s acceleration a palpable boost, compared with the previous model (BMW i). In addition, this power packet wins hearts with its thrilling responsiveness at low engine speeds. 06 07 In fact, when it comes to these values, the multi-award-winning BMW TwinPower Turbo sixcylinder in-line petrol engine sets the global standard. And its proven technology concept is now used in all of the new-generation . and .-litre petrol engines. The result is even livelier and more spontaneous responses than that of their predecessors and greater economy. The new .-litre petrol engine with BMW TwinPower Turbo technology already features in many models, including the five-door BMW Series, the new BMW Series Saloon, the BMW Series Saloon and Touring, the BMW X and the BMW Z. www.bmw.com/petrolengines The BMW TwinPower Turbo six-cylinder in-line petrol engine with its unique performance/ consumption ratio has been wowing the experts all over the world: for the third time in a row they have crowned it International Engine of the Year. After its successes in and , this exceptional engine was again named “International Engine of the Year” for the . to . litre capacity class in . Multi-award-winning: the BMW TwinPower Turbo four-cylinder diesel engine with its .-litre capacity (pictured above). The advanced engine in the BMW d shows how the best can be better still. There’s also the new BMW d, offering an impressive per cent increase in power and a per cent decrease in fuel consumption. www.bmw.com/dieselengines M550d xDrive 6,3 l/100 km (165 g CO2/km) 280 kW (381 hp) 4.1 l/100 km (109 g CO2/km) 120 kW (163 hp) BMW TwinPower Turbo diesel engines. BMW BluePerformance*. EFFICIENCY, DYNAMISM, DIESEL – IT HAS TO BE BMW. AHEAD OF FUTURE ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS. Extremely economical, extremely powerful and extremely smooth, BMW diesel engines embody the BMW EfficientDynamics philosophy. On the one hand, because they come as standard in lightweight aluminium construction. On the other, because they feature new BMW TwinPower Turbo technology. This combines fuel-injection technology such as the latest-generation CommonRail system, fully variable power control and innovative turbocharging. The result is an impressive reduction in consumption together with the power delivery expected of BMW. BMW engineers don’t just accept responsibility, they are driven by it. One significant outcome of this passion, in regard to pollutant reduction, is the development of BMW BluePerformance technology for new diesel engines. This feature reduces to a minimum the nitrogen oxides that every diesel engine generates. The engine in the new top-of-the-range BMW Md xDrive is best summed up with just one word: spectacular. Thanks to a unique three-stage turbocharging system with variable turbine geometry and CommonRail direct injection, the world’s most powerful six-cylinder diesel engine delivers a combination of pure dynamics and maximum efficiency. In figures: kW ( hp) of power, exhilarating torque of Nm, . seconds from zero to km/h and average fuel consumption of just . litres per km. 08 09 320d1 All BMW models with this technology comply with the EU emissions standard, even though it does not come into effect until . It is optional on cars such as the BMW Series, Series, Series, Series, X and X. The new BMW Md xDrive (Saloon and Touring), meanwhile, is the first model to offer EU compliance as standard. * May not be available in all countries. Please consult your BMW partner. BMW d EfficientDynamics edition. Air stream with open air vents. Air stream with closed air vents. When the air vents are closed, air flows are directed smoothly along the length of the car, improving aerodynamics and reducing consumption. X1 sDrive18d The Auto Start/Stop function illuminates a symbol in the instrument cluster to indicate when the engine has been switched off to save you fuel. 5.2 l/100 km (136 g CO2/km) 105 kW (143 hp) 520d Saloon Auto Start/Stop function. Aerodynamics. THE FINE ART OF SWITCHING OFF. RESISTANCE IS FUTILE. When an engine isn’t running, it neither consumes fuel nor produces emissions. Which is the reason why the Auto Start/Stop function switches off the engine when the vehicle comes to a temporary standstill (at traffic lights, for example). The engine starts automatically in fractions of a second when the footbrake is released (automatic) or the clutch is engaged (manual). Auto Start/Stop is standard in many BMW models and plays a central role in reducing overall consumption and CO output. www.bmw.com/autostartstop Many athletes nowadays wear skin-tight gear designed to reduce drag. Aerodynamics is also a key element in ensuring that a vehicle’s motion is as energy-efficient as possible. That’s why we developed a feature called the Air Curtain for the BMW Series Coupé and Convertible, as well as the new BMW Series Saloon. This new technology reduces wind resistance at the wheel arches. Air taken in through vents in the front apron accelerates as the ducts conducting it narrow. The air is then led to the wheel arches, where it exits, covering the outer faces of the wheels like a curtain. Air vent control, fitted in many BMW models, fulfils a similar purpose. It reduces aerodynamic drag, especially at high speeds, by closing the air vents at the front of the radiator according to the driving situation and engine temperature. The engine management system continuously monitors whether the engine requires cooling air and opens or closes the vents accordingly. The benefits are twofold: a shorter engine warm-up phase and reduced fuel consumption. www.bmw.com/aircurtain www.bmw.com/airventcontrol 10 11 4.7 l/100 km (123 g CO2/km) 135 kW (184 hp) The Air Curtain – invisible and incredibly efficient. Brake Energy Regeneration. FULL OF ENERGY. EVEN WHEN BRAKING. Every time you brake, you release kinetic energy – energy which for a long time was not capitalised upon by vehicle design. Brake Energy Regeneration uses this previously wasted potential to reclaim electricity from the momentum produced when the driver takes their foot off the accelerator or brakes. This power is then used to recharge the battery. This intelligent energy management system frees up the generator and makes permanent running of the alternator redundant. As a result, fuel consumption is reduced and performance increased – the essence of the BMW EfficientDynamics philosophy. www.bmw.com/brakeenergyregeneration 123d Coupé 5.1 l/100 km (134 g CO2/km) 150 kW (204 hp) Intelligent lightweight construction. LESS WEIGHT. MORE DRIVING PLEASURE. Modern lightweight engineering. The Life module in BMW i vehicles is made solely from carbon fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP). 12 13 The less weight there is to move, the less energy is consumed. Since the s, BMW has consistently applied this thinkin to vehicle construction – and constantly improved upon it. There is a question that perpetually confronts BMW engineers, however: where does a reduction in weight make sense and where not? The answer lies in intelligent lightweight construction. This involves the carefully targeted use of ultra-light materials such as magnesium, aluminium and carbon fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP). The latter is perfect for vehicle construction; stable like steel, yet around half the weight. Traditionally the engine supplies the battery with electrical energy – consuming fuel in the process. In a BMW the battery is mostly recharged using kinetic energy. Tyres with reduced rolling-resistance. LESS FRICTION. LESS FUEL CONSUMPTION. The use of the high-tech material CFRP in large-scale vehicle production – as in the BMW i and BMW i – is, to date, unique. It ensures longer range, optimum safety and characteristic BMW performance. It also guarantees a very long lifespan. While the car is in motion, the tyres are constantly changing shape, using up energy and fuel. That’s why BMW uses tyres with reduced rolling-resistance. Optimised tyre construction combined with the use of special materials in the road treads and side walls minimises deformation, or “flexing”, thereby reducing fuel consumption. www.bmw.com/lightweightconstruction www.bmw.com/tyres It doesn’t take long to achieve your first bonus kilometres once ECO PRO mode is activated. Bonus range gained is shown in the on-board computer along with a small fuel pump symbol. The potential for saving fuel in city traffic is particularly high in ECO PRO mode. Adopting a driving style that emphasises anticipation and restrained acceleration, for instance, leads to excellent economy and only minimal loss of time. With ECO PRO tips, you will also learn valuable lessons about more efficient driving on trunk roads and motorways. Seeing the bonus range in the on-board computer will inspire you to drive even more efficiently, so you can cover the greatest possible distance on a single tank. The BMW EfficientDynamics display in the rev counter, in conjunction with the optional extended instrument cluster, is also of particular help here. A blue bar indicates the range where fuel consumption remains at its optimum. There is a welcome side benefit with ECO PRO, too, because it promotes a calmer driving style. And that means you always reach your destination feeling relaxed. ECO PRO mode active. Drive and electric comfort functions are orientated towards optimum fuel efficiency. www.bmw.com/ecopromode 118i 5-door 5.8 l/100 km (134 g CO2/km) 125 kW (170 hp) ECO PRO tips. The Control Display gives hints on more efficient driving. ECO PRO mode. MORE EFFICIENCY – AT THE PUSH OF A BUTTON. The bonus range shown by the on-board computer encourages more efficient driving. All it takes is a push of the Driving Experience button to activate ECO PRO and you start saving valuable fuel, kilometre after kilometre. User-friendly ECO PRO mode actively supports efficient driving and, depending on your driving style, leads to a reduction in consumption of up to per cent. It does this by optimising accelerator pedal and transmission responses while adapting the heating or air conditioning. Additionally, you can use ECO PRO to display tips on how to adopt a more economical driving style. Finally, Efficiencytainment graphics on the Control Display represent the systems currently employed to improve efficiency, such as Brake Energy Regeneration and Auto Start/Stop. For extra motivation, the additional kilometres gained are shown on the Control Display as bonus range.

Fuel data on view in the Control Display. Optimum Shift Indicator. TAKING EFFICIENCY UP A GEAR. BMW innovations always come at the right time. Like for example the Optimum Shift Indicator. It determines the optimal moment to change gears and indicates the most appropriate gear in the driver’s direct line of vision. As is characteristic of BMW, the system works intelligently – for example recognising the powerful acceleration needed when overtaking and adjusting its recommendations to suit the higher speed. THE BMW PRINCIPLE. Researching and developing sustainable solutions. of this collaboration, from as far back as the late s, is the BMW / Coupé. Not only was it one of the most unusual cars of its day, but its low weight also meant it was one of the fastest on German motorways. With its hp six-cylinder in-line petrol engine, the open-topped BMW reached a top speed of km/h. www.bmw.com/optimumshiftindicator Electric Power Steering. STEER TOWARD EFFICIENCY. Every turn of the steering wheel requires energy. But why should energy be used when the wheel isn’t turning? That’s why BMW Electric Power Steering is only active when it’s needed. In contrast with conventional hydraulic steering systems, this BMW solution only uses energy while an actual steering manoeuvre is underway. When the steering wheel is static – for example, when driving at high speed along the motorway – the electric motor is inactive. www.bmw.com/powersteering When the steering wheel is static no energy is expended. The electric engine is only activated when the steering wheel is turned. The BMW Group is regarded as the global front-runner among car makers when it comes to dynamics, efficiency and sustainability. This leading position is the result of decades of research and thousands of inventions. And nowhere are these developments more apparent than in the BMW Museum. One example is the BMW racing saloon and you can see a spectacular replica of its intricate space frame mounted like a work of art in the House of Technology. The original structure of was a load-bearing framework of magnesium alloy and weighed just kilogrammes. So even then, BMW saw lightweight construction as a key factor in creating efficiency and sportiness. Head for the Technology section on the lower floor of the building and you will find a recreation of a wind tunnel and learn how the close interaction between aerodynamics engineers and designers has influenced automotive design. An outstanding example Directly opposite the BMW Museum, visitors enter BMW Welt. The vehicles on display here demonstrate the achievements of BMW engineers in the areas of sustainability, efficiency and driving pleasure. These are, of course, central principles of BMW EfficientDynamics and there are many exhibits and animations in BMW Welt devoted to the multi-award-winning strategy. Many inventions and innovations are developed behind the scenes. But thanks to the BMW Museum and BMW Welt, this engineering ingenuity is brought squarely into the spotlight. www.bmw-museum.com www.bmw-welt.com BMW ActiveE. “ENERGY IS OUR MOST VALUABLE ASSET.” Patrick Müller is responsible for the BMW eDrive technology in the BMW ActiveE and the BMW i models. In this interview, he explains the special characteristics and features of the electric motors, high-performance batteries and electronics. He also offers insight on how BMW EfficientDynamics technology has been incorporated into the new BMW i models. Engines and drivetrains are of prime importance for BMW. Is this also the case for electric vehicles? This is one of the main reasons why we are developing these units mainly in-house. For many people, BMW stands for highperformance, highly efficient engines. How do the BMW electric motors fit this picture? The requirements for the BMW i3 and BMW i8 are just as demanding as for all the other BMW models. Which is why we are building small, light and powerful engines that also deliver maximum efficiency. How do they compare with traditional engines? The technology is very different. However, the driving experience remains typically BMW. We are building the most dynamic and agile electric cars – with one or two little differences from those with conventional drivetrains. In an electric car, the seamless availability of power right from a standing start is definitely something special. A first impression of this is provided by our BMW ActiveE. It already embodies all the elements of our future power system, such as motor, batteries and performance electronics. 18 19 What do drivers think about the driving range of the BMW ActiveE? Feedback throughout the study has been positive. Most people manage very well with the 160-kilometre range. I actually commute 70 kilometres a day in my BMW ActiveE and it’s great. Clearly, the efficient use of electric energy is of paramount importance. For this reason, we are planning a special ECO PRO mode for the BMW i3. Initial experiences with the BMW ActiveE have seen reach extend by about 25 per cent. Do the developments from BMW EfficientDynamics assist in this? Naturally, we do benefit from the well-known BMW measures such as low rolling resistance tyres and energy management for all the auxiliary equipment. But we’re doing a great deal more and, for us, every watt counts. In many situations, for example, our vehicles completely recuperate brake energy. Essentially, we are pushing the limits across the board to maximise the benefits of EfficientDynamics. What are the most pioneering aspects of BMW i? With regard to lightweight construction and electric drive systems, we are at the forefront – both within BMW and for the whole of the car industry. Our bodywork consists mainly of carbon and, at the moment, you can’t build a lighter car. In tandem with the high-efficiency drive system, every kilogram we reduce saves energy and increases range. DEVELOPED TO ELECTRIFY. The completely electric-driven BMW ActiveE is the first emissions-free vehicle from BMW and is built in a short production run as part of a pilot project. The experience gained will contribute to the development of the BMW i. The ActiveE is based on the new BMW Series Coupé and equipped with an electric motor with maximum power of kW ( hp) and Nm of torque. It also, of course, offers all the driving pleasure typical of BMW. Environmental protection is important to future customers, which is why the BMW i3 creates no emissions while it’s being driven. But how do you address sustainability in the development programme? For BMW i models, the global warming potential is at least one third below that of comparable internal combustion-engined vehicles. This is due to sustainable production and the use of recycled and renewable raw materials. The expenditure of energy for producing aluminium, for instance, is very high. This is why we almost exclusively use recycled aluminium, even in the structures for the housing of the electric motor and the batteries. There aren’t many people who have driven as many electric-car kilometres as you. What has been the most significant insight? The absolute quiet in the car is very relaxing. At the same time, however, it offers a genuinely dynamic driving experience. www.bmw-i.com www.bwm.com/ActiveE BMW eDrive technology, comprising an electric motor, a lithium-ion high-performance battery and intelligent motor control, ensures impressive acceleration from a standing start. This makes ActiveE the BMW ActiveE both extremely agile and fascinating to drive. The vehicle’s lithium-ion high-voltage batteries are intelligently distributed around the entire vehicle, so there is no loss of space. Indeed, the luggage compartment offers a generous capacity of litres, while the car keeps its full four-seat configuration. What’s more, the BMW ActiveE only needs charging up after about kilometres of travel thanks to average power consumption of . kWh/km. www.bmw.com/ActiveE www.bmw-i.com 0 l/100 km (0 g CO2/km)1 125 kW (170 hp) CO emissions generated through the production and supply of fuel or other energy sources were not accounted for in determining CO emissions. BMW i concept. THE MEGACITY VEHICLE. The BMW i concept is the car for city traffic, designed from top to bottom with sustainability and emissions-free mobility in mind. Driven entirely by electric power, it embodies the smart way of getting around town and commuting. With its kW ( hp) performance and high torque of Nm available from standstill, the electric motor (BMW eDrive technology) on the rear axle ensures agile driving pleasure, which is also enhanced by the car’s small turning circle. The BMW i accelerates from to km/h in under four seconds and takes less than eight to reach km/h. The range on one battery charge is – km. Clever design offers plenty of room in a small space. The LifeDrive structure, perfectly designed for city mobility, also allows for the integration of new functions. So whatever the requirements of life in the megacity, the BMW i concept will provide the intelligent, sustainable solution – combined with the highest aesthetic appeal.

BMW i stands for visionary vehicles and mobile services, inspirational design and a new approach to premium motoring – all strongly defined by sustainability. With BMW i, the BMW Group has adopted a holistic approach, with tailor-made vehicle design, clear focus on sustainability through the entire value chain and a series of supplementary mobility services. In short, it is redefining the understanding of individual, electric-powered mobility. Following a central theme – less emissions and more driving pleasure – BMW i is developing progressive new vehicle concepts and technologies for the mobility of tomorrow, while also embracing a large number of existing BMW EfficientDynamics technologies. The BMW i concept is tomorrow’s ultimate city car and the BMW i concept represents the sports car of the future. The BMW i will be available in production form in , shortly followed by the BMW i. Range in purely electric operation: km. Range in purely electric operation: – km. CO emissions generated through the production and supply of fuel or other energy sources were not accounted for in determining CO emissions. 20 21 THE SPORTS CAR OF THE FUTURE. No contradiction: an emotionally charged sports car with the consumption values of a small car. This is the BMW i concept. One of its secrets is its intelligent construction in carbon fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP) – as strong as steel, but about per cent lighter. The Life module in BMW i vehicles is made solely from CFRP, guaranteeing generous range, optimum safety, typical BMW driving performance and a very long service life. The BMW i evolved from the BMW Vision EfficientDynamics. And with its BMW eDrive PlugIn hybrid concept, it is essentially two cars in one. Thanks to its electric motor (front drive) it can reach over km/h on electric power. But in combination with the high performance BMW TwinPower turbo engine (rear-wheel drive), with its output of kW, the BMW becomes a thoroughbred sports car. Overall system output is kW ( hp), which delivers acceleration from zero to km/h in under fi ve seconds and consumption in the EU cycle of less than three litres per km – figures that have never been attained by a combustionengine vehicle of this performance stature. Thanks to its large lithium-ion battery that can be charged from a mains socket, the BMW i concept can achieve a range of up to km in purely electric operation. In addition, the +-seater has sufficient space for four adults, so it is also very practical in daily life.

Hybrid technology is one way of achieving lower fuel consumption and reducing emissions. But only in a BMW does this technology also mean more driving pleasure. The word hybrid describes the combination of two drive methods which are, generally, a combustion engine and an electric motor. BMW ActiveHybrid technology is precisely and appropriately tuned to each model. The first was the the Series, available as a BMW ActiveHybrid since . With this mild hybrid, BMW has achieved great day-to-day usability combined with an increase in efficiency of up to per cent. Two new saloons, the BMW ActiveHybrid and BMW ActiveHybrid , represent the next generation of BMW hybrids. These are known as full hybrids and can cover up to four kilometres under purely electric power and, hence, totally free of emissions. more dynamism and demand for fuel reduced by a double-digit percentage. The electric motor draws its power from a high-performance lithium-ion battery with an impressively long service life. It even comes with a special certificate guaranteeing its performance for the first , km over a maximum of five years. Additionally, intelligent energy management ensures that excess energy is either recuperated and stored or used directly to power the vehicle as required. It also optimises the use of kinetic energy according to navigation and location data and the route profile, thus ensuring the most efficient interplay of combustion engine and electric motor. For example, when the system detects a hill and a descent in the route profile, the engine is given maximum assistance by the electric motor on the way up, while the surplus energy generated on the drive down is fed back into the highperformance battery. www.bmw.com/ActiveHybrid The unique combination of a BMW TwinPower Turbo six-cylinder in-line petrol engine and the electric motor in the BMW ActiveHybrid and BMW ActiveHybrid also provides perceptibly 22 23 Expected availability from /, values, to be confirmed, are determined on the basis of the ECE test cycle: < g CO/km and < . l/ km.

Brake Energy Regeneration: kinetic energy created during braking is converted into electric power and stored in the high-performance battery. Boost function: if required, the electric motor can be supplemented with extra energy from the battery for a short-term performance increase. Electric power: the kW motor enables purely electric driving. Energy consumption history: electric energy use is represented by a bar graph. WATER IS THE ELIXIR OF LIFE. AND INSPIRATION FOR BMW. The drive in your BMW has all the agility and poise you expect – but the only thing coming out of the exhaust pipe is water. In , after decades of intensive research, a new element entered the dynamics of the busy street – the BMW Hydrogen . At the heart of this, the world’s first hydrogen-powered luxury saloon for everyday use, is a combustion engine that, at the touch of a button, runs on either hydrogen or petrol. The storage of the hydrogen illustrates the ingenuity of BMW engineering particularly well. It is designed for high safety, can withstand extreme conditions and stores the fuel at minus degrees Celcius. www.bmw.com/hydrogen BMW ActiveHybrid. BEST PERFORMANCE IS TEAM PERFORMANCE. In the BMW ActiveHybrid and BMW ActiveHybrid , all hybrid components complement each other perfectly for united performance and increased efficiency. The full hybrid models can even coast silently at up to km/h with the combustion engine turned off. They can be also driven on purely electric power which, again, means no fuel is used. The boost function, meanwhile, provides the engine with extra power from the electric motor as required. And that means an instant transformation from smooth sustainability to powerful and spontaneous acceleration. Expected to be available from /.
