BMW Engines Earn Two Places On Ward's Annual 10 Best Engines List

2009-07-10T14:18:00.000-07:00

BMW of North America accepted two 10 Best Engines awards from Ward's Automotive Group. As the only double winner this year, two BMW twin-turbo inline-6 engines - one diesel and one gasoline - were elected to the 10 Best Engines list for the 2009 model year by the Ward's panel of expert judges.

Each of these very different engines brings to market new technologies that combine to create the highest-performing six-cylinder engines BMW has ever produced while delivering fuel efficiency that was previously unattainable. BMW's gasoline 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged DOHC Inline-6 received a Ward's 10 Best Engines honor for the third time since its introduction in the summer of 2006. The acclaimed engine now powers 11 BMW models in the US – from the 135i to the X6 xDrive35i Sports Activity Coupe. This 300-horsepower engine features twin low-mass turbochargers, High Precision Direct Injection and electrified accessory drives for an unbeatable blend of power, efficiency, and responsiveness. As an example, this engine propels the BMW 335i coupe from rest to 60 mph in just 5.3 seconds (manual transmission) yet delivers an EPA-estimated highway mileage of 26 mpg.

The second Ward's 10 Best Engines honor for BMW was awarded to the new 50-state BMW Advanced Diesel with BluePerformance technology. Featuring all-aluminum construction, this light-weight 3.0-liter Sequential Turbo DOHC Advanced Diesel inline-6 offers V-8 performance on four-cylinder consumption: 265 horsepower and 425 lb-ft of torque, with EPA efficiency figures of 23 (city) and 36 (highway) in the 2009 BMW 335d Sedan, which is capable of 0 - 60mph in just 6.0 seconds. In addition to the 335d model mentioned, this new engine will also be available in the X5 xDrive35d Sports Activity Vehicle, which is capable of 0 - 60mph in 6.9 seconds and 26mpg on the highway.

The '09 BMW 328i - Truly ahead of its Competition

2009-06-11T11:26:00.000-07:00

CAR and DRIVER pitted four premium sports sedans against each other. Of course, there was only one BMW - the 328i Sedan. And after being judged across more than twenty criteria, it came out ahead of the Infiniti G37 Sport, Audi A4 2.0T, and the Acura TL SH-AWD. Not only is it the best performing sedan, but it¹s also the lowest cost vehicle (as tested) and offers the best mileage.

In addition to coming with its top-rated performance, it includes the peace of mind of BMW's no-cost maintenance program. For the first 4 years/50,000 miles, you pay nothing to maintain your BMW.

Preview of the BMW ActiveHybrid... part 2 of 2.

2009-05-27T09:50:00.000-07:00

This week we'll continue our feature on the BMW ActiveHybrid system by taking a look at the Concept 7 Series Hybrid... this is part 2 of 2 in our short mini-series... enjoy!

Introducing this Concept Car based on the new BMW 7 Series, BMW is clearly demonstrating the potential offered by the most advanced hybrid technology available today. The BMW Concept 7 Series ActiveHybrid comes with hybrid components tailored precisely to the character of this unique saloon, offering driving comfort, everyday motoring qualities and driving safety of the supreme standard only the BMW 7 Series is able to provide.

In addition, the BMW ActiveHybrid technology featured in the Concept Car reduces both fuel consumption and emissions by 15 percent versus the same car with a combustion engine and offers a standard of driving dynamics clearly exceeding all series models with hybrid technology presented so far.

The BMW Concept 7 Series ActiveHybrid combines an eight-cylinder gasoline engine and an electric motor developing 15 kW/20 hp and maximum torque of 210 Newton-metres/155 lb-ft as a mild hybrid concept. Electric power is generated by a particularly powerful variant of Brake Energy Regeneration already featured in the BMW Group's regular production cars. The energy generated in this way is then stored in alithium-ion battery fitted in accordance with the package of the car beneath the luggage compartment.

Maximum efficiency in the luxury class, supreme dynamics in the hybridsegment - precisely these are the unique standards offered and combinedwith one another by the BMW Concept 7 Series ActiveHybrid.

2009-05-18T10:53:00.000-07:00

A core part of the BMW ActiveHybrid technology system is that it allows for greater driving dynamics than a conventional hybrid car and at the same time meaningfully reduces fuel consumption. The technology will debut in the upcoming X6 ActiveHybrid and the Concept 7 Series ActiveHybrid, with other vehicles to follow. This week we'll feature the Concept X6, and for part 2 of this series, we'll bring you details on the Concept 7 Series Hybrid in our next post.

BMW will present a hybrid concept like no other in the world - the BMW Concept X6 ActiveHybrid. The vehicle is the world's first Sports Activity Coupe to feature a unique design of hybrid drive combining the Ultimate Driving Machine with significant enhancement of all-round efficiency.Through its drive concept alone, the BMW Concept X6 ActiveHybrid allows far greater driving dynamics than a conventional hybrid car and at the same time reduces fuel consumption by up to 20 percent versus a comparable car running on a combustion engine alone.

The innovative drivetrain and the unique concept of the Sports Activity Coupe form an ideal match that is unparalleled anywhere in the world. BMW ActiveHybrid technology has indeed been developed especially for a particularly dynamic vehicle in this segment and for extensive use far beyond city traffic. In terms of its size, character and driving dynamics, the BMW X6 Sports Activity Coupe is simply ideal for bringing out the full potential of BMW ActiveHybrid technology, combining an elegant and dynamically flowing roofline with the features so typical of a BMW X model. Its design clearly epitomizes the full DNA of BMW X, while interpreting the character of these vehicles in a uniquely sporting manner.

The Next Chapter in the BMW M-Series is Unveiled

2009-04-14T09:18:00.000-07:00

Since the original conception of the M-Series, finding new ways to expand the boundaries of the existing BMW models has been the singal main purpose of the BMW M designers and engineers. Now the BMW X5 M and the BMW X6 M are the first all-wheel-drive models in the M-series family to offer remarkable performance, dynamic driving experience, athletic design, and premium quality. Both models are powered by a newly-developed 4.4-liter V8 M engine delivering 555 hp at 6,000 rpm and 500 lb-ft of torque from 1500 to 5,650 rpm. This new M engine is the world's first with a pulse-tuned exhaust manifold encompassing both rows of cylinders combined with high-performance twin-scroll twin turbo technology.

For the X5 M and X6 M, engineers pushed the capabilities of BMW's intelligent xDrive all-wheel-drive system and the Dynamic Performance Control system to manage the power and performance potential of these two new vehicles. The special M suspension includes Adaptive Drive and the newly-developed Servotronic power steering. These features combine to push the limits of what was previously possible with a sports-oriented vehicle, and guarantee driving behavior characteristics of a BMW M product: incredible stability, precisely controlled steering qualities, and optimal powerful performance.

A Sneak Preview of the 2010 BMW Z4 Roadster

2009-03-31T10:16:00.000-07:00

The Summer just can't get here quick enough! With the release of the 2010 BMW Z4 Roadtster expected to be in May or the early part of summer, we're waiting for the chance to drop the top down and cruise by the coast on a hot, sunny day...

The Z4 has been thoroughly redesigned, and includes a power retractable two-piece aluminum roof — a first for the Z4. A fixed-roof coupe will no longer be produced. The new Z4 will be offered in sDrive30i and sDrive35i guise, mirroring the powertrains used in the automaker’s 3-Series range. The new BMW Z4 is offered with the choice of two inline-6 engines displacing 3.0 liters. The engine in the sDrive30i develops maximum output of 255 horsepower from 3.0 liters capacity at an engine speed of 6,600 rpm. The more powerful twin-turbo sDrive35i has a maximum output of 300 horsepower, arriving at 5,800 rpm. The sprint to 60 mph takes just 5.0 seconds. Both models are available with a manual six-speed gearbox. The Z4 sDrive35i is also available with a dual-clutch automated transmission featuring seven gears. A six-speed sport automatic is available on the Z4 sDrive30i. Both the automatic and the dual-clutch transmissions feature steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters.

With the exterior sporting a more sleek and elegant look, the car also takes some inspiration from the BMW Z8’s elongated profile. The new 7-Series’ front face is also evident, as are 6-Series-inspired taillights. The new interior is more visually pleasing, and includes a host of comfort and usability improvements. BMW’s latest automatic gearshift is present, and iDrive is available for the first time in a Z4. The system is built around an 8.8-inch LCD screen which folds into the dash when not used, and features a 1280 x 480 pixel resolution and 80GB hard drive, with up to 15GB of music storage. A 650-watt 14-speaker sound system rounds out the list of high-tech features. The car comes with Kansas leather in a choice of three colors, plus optional Ivory White Nappa leather trim as part of the Exclusive Ivory White Leather Package, and a choice of 9 exterior color tones.

The 5 Series sedan comes in several trims: 525i, 525xi, 530i, 530xi and 550i. The wagon is available in 530xi trim only.
