On January 28, 2012 in Hybrids, Passenger Cars

BMW takes the development of intelligent hybrid drive systems to the next level with the introduction of the BMW ActiveHybrid 5 – another series-produced model in which a combustion engine and electric motor join forces to enhance both efficiency and the brand’s hallmark driving pleasure. The BMW ActiveHybrid 5 brings together a BMW TwinPower Turbo in-line 6-cylinder engine, an electric drive system and an 8-speed automatic gearbox for the first time.

The latest generation of BMW ActiveHybrid technology also adds precisely controlled – and therefore extremely effective – intelligent energy management. All of which gives the BMW ActiveHybrid 5 an exceptional balance of performance and fuel efficiency for the benchmark performance sedan in the premium executive car class. Continue Reading →

Manual Gearbox for 2013 BMW M5 Confirmed

On January 15, 2012 in Passenger Cars

At the North American International Auto Show, BMW confirmed that it will offer a 6-speed manualtransmission on the North American version of the upcoming 2013 BMW M5. The 6-speed manual will be available from the start of production this summer and will be offered as a no-cost alternative to the standard 7-speed M-Double Clutch Transmission (DCT). The manual gearbox was a popular choice for U.S. customers of the previous generation M5 and continues to be a unique offer in the segment.

Though the 6-speed gearbox has one less gear than the M-DCT transmission, the ratios have been optimized for acceleration, flexibility and fuel economy. Final drive ratio and special M Active differential are maintained.  The new transmission is mated to a short throw shift linkage topped with a black leather backlit shift knob. Continue Reading →

2012 BMW 3 Series Revealed

On October 18, 2011 in Passenger Cars

The sixth generation of the BMW 3 Series Sedan sets new benchmarks in terms of sporting prowess, elegance and comfort. The pioneering history of the 3 Series serves as inspiration for the new sports sedan, whose powerful styling represents a fresh interpretation and conscientious development of traditional BMW design cues. The new BMW face, with flat headlights reaching along as far as the BMW kidney grille, emphasises the elegantly dynamic design of the new BMW 3 Series. The 2012 3 Series has grown in size compared to its predecessor, with its wide track (front + 37 mm, rear + 47 mm) particularly prominent, and the car’s increased length (+ 93 mm) and augmented wheelbase (+ 50 mm) also accentuate its sporting silhouette.

BMW i3 and i8 are Set to Take Over the Urban Streets

On September 21, 2011 in Concept Cars

When thinking about the most cutting-edge trends in the automotive industry, BMW is usually the first thing to pop into the minds of consumers. Instead of focusing on long highway commutes for its latest set of vehicles, BMW wants to focus more on the shifting demands of young professionals who are increasingly moving to large urban centers for their latest series of cars. Instead of focusing on retirees from Arizona who might be able to afford the cars with their savings, BMW is hoping to grab people early in their careers who would purchase with Phoenix auto title loans so they would stick with the BMW brand throughout their lives.
