BMW model revision measures for summer 2018.

Munich. BMW continues to consistently pursue the
improvement of emissions in all combustion engines in summer 2018. As
of July 2018, all petrol and plug-in hybrid models of the brand
available in Germany will be fitted as standard with a petrol engine
particulate filter and thus will already comply with the exhaust
standard Euro 6d-TEMP. BluePerformance Technology including SCR
catalytic converter with AdBlue injection has been a standard feature
of all BMW diesel models since March 2018. This means they all offer
highly efficient, multi-stage exhaust gas treatment consisting of NOx
storage catalytic converter and SCR system (Selective Catalytic
Reduction). Due to the particularly effective reduction of particulate
emissions achieved, these comply with what will then be the most
rigorous exhaust standard, namely Euro 6d-TEMP. In addition, another
39 diesel models will be going on the market with Euro 6d-TEMP rating.

Additional model variants of the BMW X3 and the BMW X4 will be
available from August 2018 onwards. As early as July 2018 there will
be an increase in the number of models in the BMW 1 Series, BMW 3
Series, BMW 4 Series and BMW 5 Series which are fitted as standard
with an 8-speed Steptronic transmission. Another newcomer to the model
range is the BMW 1 Series Edition Metropolitan.

For the BMW 530e iPerformance Sedan (combined fuel consumption: 2.1 –
1.9 l/100 km; combined power consumption: 14.113.1 l/100 km*; combined
CO2 emissions: 49 – 44 g/km), the optional equipment item BMW Wireless
Charging will be available ex works from July 2018. The option BMW
Connected eDrive Services available for the BMW i and BMW iPerformance
automobiles will also include the BMW Digital Charging Service in
future. What is more, an aerodynamics package is available for the BMW
i8 Roadster (combined fuel consumption: 2.0 l/100 km; combined power
consumption 14.5 kWh/100 km; combined CO2 emissions 46 g/km).

 

BMW X3 and BMW X4: new model variations with in-line
6-cylinder engines.

With the premiere of the BMW X3 M40d (combined fuel consumption: 6.5
– 6.4 l/100 km; combined CO2emissions 172 – 169 g/km*), the number of
engines available to choose from for the Sports Activity Vehicle in
the premium mid-range segment increases to seven. What is more, this
newcomer is now the second BMW M Performance model in the series. In
the BMW X3 M40d, an in-line 6-cylinder diesel engine generates a peak
output of 240 kW/326 hp and a maximum torque of 680 N m already
available at 1 750 rpm thanks to multi-stage turbocharging and common
rail direct injection with piezo injectors, accelerating the car from
zero to 100 km/h in 4.9 seconds.

A second in-line 6-cylinder diesel engine will be offered for the
Sports Activity Coupé as of August 2018. The power unit in the new BMW
X4 xDrive30d (combined fuel consumption: 6.0 – 5.8 l/100 km; combined
CO2 emissions 158 – 153 g/km*) generates a peak output of 195 kW/265
hp and a maximum torque of 620 Nm. It takes the car just 5.8 seconds
to accelerate from standing to 100 km/h. All new model variants of the
BMW X3 and the BMW X4 are fitted as standard with an 8-speed
Steptronic sports transmission.

 

8-speed Steptronic transmission as standard in additional
models.

Fast gearshifts, a high level of shift comfort and excellent
efficiency are the benefits of the 8-speed Steptronic transmission,
now to become a standard feature of numerous additional BMW models as
of July 2018. In the premium compact segment, the BMW 120i 3 door and
the BMW 120 i 5 door (combined fuel consumption: 6.1 – 5.9 l/100 km;
combined CO2 emissions 139 – 134 g/km) will also feature automatic
gear selection as standard in future. Meanwhile the further enhanced
shift dynamics of the 8-speed Steptronic sports transmission can be
experienced as standard in the BMW M140i 3 door and the BMW M140i 5
door (combined fuel consumption: 7.4 – 7.4 l/100 km; combined CO2
emissions 169 – 168 g/km).

In the BMW 3 Series, eight additional models will be fitted with the
8-speed Steptronic transmission as standard from July 2018 onwards.
These are the BMW 320i Gran Turismo (combined fuel consumption: 6.3 –
6.2 l/100 km; combined CO2 emissions 143 – 141 g/km) and the BMW 320i
xDrive Sedan (combined fuel consumption: 6.5 – 6.4 l/100 km; combined
CO2 emissions 148 – 146 g/km), the BMW 320i xDrive Touring (combined
fuel consumption: 6.7 – 6.6 l/100 km; combined CO2 emissions 154 – 151
g/km) and the BMW 320i xDrive Gran Turismo (combined fuel consumption:
6.8 – 6.7 l/100 km; combined COCO2 emissions 156 – 152 g/km). The
models BMW 330i Sedan (combined fuel consumption: 6.1 – 6.0 l/100 km;
combined CO2 emissions 140 – 137 g/km) and BMW 330i Touring (combined
fuel consumption: 6.3 l/100 km; combined CO2 emissions 145 g/km) and
BMW 340i Sedan (combined fuel consumption: 7.4 l/100 km; combined CO2
emissions 168 g/km) and the BMW 340i xDrive Sedan (combined fuel
consumption: 7.7 l/100 km; combined CO2 emissions 174 g/km) will also
include an automatic transmission as a standard fitting in the future.

Six model variants of the BMW 4 Series will benefit from the new
standard engine-transmission combination, too: the BMW 420i
Convertible (combined fuel consumption: 6.4 – 6.2 l/100 km; combined
CO2 emissions 146 – 143 g/km), the BMW 420i xDrive Gran Coupé
(combined fuel consumption: 6.6 – 6.5 l/100 km; combined CO2 emissions
151 – 148 g/km), the BMW 430i Convertible (combined fuel consumption:
6.5 – 6.3 l/100 km; combined CO2 emissions 148 – 144 g/km) and the BMW

The range of models fitted as standard with the 8-speed Steptronic
transmission in future is rounded off with the BMW 520d Sedan
(combined fuel consumption: 4.6 – 4.5 l/100 km; combined CO2 emissions
121 – 117 g/km) and the BMW 520d Touring (combined fuel consumption:
4.9 – 4.7 l/100 km; combined CO2 emissions 128 – 123 g/km).

 

Well equipped for the city: BMW 1 Series Edition Metropolitan.

Urban mobility in a premium compact model takes on an extra touch of
style in the BMW 1 Series Edition Metropolitan. The Edition model,
available as a BMW 1 Series 3 door and a BMW 1 Series 5, has numerous
equipment features that are specifically designed to enhance comfort
and driving pleasure in urban traffic. These include the navigation
system Business, Park Distance Control with sensors at the front and
rear of the vehicle, rear view camera, parking assistant, road sign
detection, Speed Limit Info, Comfort Access and an instrument cluster
with extended features. The Edition model is available in conjunction
with the Urban Line model and all engine variants with the exception
of the BMW M140i.

 

New paint finishes and interior design features for the BMW 5
Series and the BMW 6er Gran Turismo.

The selection of paint finishes for the BMW 5 Series Sedan and the
BMW 5 Series Touring will be extended in summer 2018 to include the
variant Frozen Dark Silver metallic, whose silken matt surface creates
a particularly expressive look. This body finish will also be offered
for the high-performance sedan BMW M5 (combined fuel consumption: 10.5
l/100km; combined CO2 emissions: 241 g/100km, provisional values), for
which it is also possible to select the variant Frozen Marina Bay Blue
metallic – likewise a new option.

From July 2018, the optionally available electroplating applications
for selected controls will make for an exclusive sheen in the interior
of the BMW 5 Series Sedan, the BMW 5 Series Touring and the BMW 6
Series Gran Turismo. This high-quality surface refinement is applied
to the steering wheel switches, the start/stop button, the volume
control on the audio system, the air conditioning controls and the
switch panels on the driver and front passenger doors.

 

BMW 7 Series: BMW Individual composition that can be combined
with other exterior finishes.

The BMW Individual composition provides a highly exclusive ambience
in the interior of the BMW 7 Series Sedan by means of exquisite
materials and a subtly harmonised colour scheme. The option comprising
BMW Individual full Merino fine-grain leather trim, BMW Individual
interior trim finishers, a BMW Individual leather steering wheel and a
BMW Individual roof liner can be combined with additional body
finishes from July 2018 onwards. In future the selection will also
include the variants Alpine White non-metallic, Sapphire Black
metallic, Kashmir Silver metallic, Glacier Silver metallic, Imperial
Blue Brilliant Effect metallic, Sophisto Grey Brilliant Effect
metallic, Mineral White metallic, Jatoba metallic, Magellan Grey
metallic, Arctic Grey Brilliant Effect metallic and Atlas Cedar metallic.

 

Aerodynamics package for the BMW i8 Roadster.

The plug-in hybrid drive of the BMW i8 Roadster (combined fuel
consumption 2,0 l/100 km; combined electricity consumption 14,5
kWh/100 km; combined CO2 emissions 46 g/km) guarantees a particularly
progressive combination of sporty dynamic performance and efficiency
for open-top driving. The car’s supreme driving properties can be
further optimised by means of the new aerodynamics package. This is
made up of a dual-section front splitter and a spoiler lip for the
rear of the two-seater model.

 

Charging is simpler than fuelling: launch of BMW Wireless
Charging.

The innovative option BMW Wireless Charging offers maximum comfort
when charging the high-voltage battery of a plug-in hybrid model. BMW
is the world’s first automobile manufacturer to offer a system of
inductive charging where a cable is no longer required to feed
electric current into the vehicle’s battery. From 2018, BMW Wireless
Charging will be among the optional equipment items available for the
BMW 530e iPerformance ex works: it comprises a “car pad” for
the vehicle and an inductive charging station known as a “ground
pad”, which can be installed on the floor of a garage, for example.

The contactless transfer of energy is carried out via an
electromagnetic field between the two components and can be initiated
as soon as the vehicle has reached park position over the ground pad.
This makes charging a high-voltage battery even easier than filling a
fuel tank.

 

New for BMW i and BMW i Performance automobiles: BMW Connected
eDrive Services with BMW Digital Charging Service.

In future, the option BMW Connected eDrive Services will cover all
digital services that help optimise comfort, everyday practicality and
efficiency in vehicles that are electrically powered. This new
optional equipment feature will be available from July 2018 for the
BMW i3 (combined fuel consumption: 0.0 l/100 km; combined power
consumption 13.6 – 13.1 kWh/100 km; combined CO2 emissions 0 g/km) and
the BMW i3s (combined fuel consumption: 0.0 l/100 km; combined power
consumption: l/100 km; combined power consumption 14.3 kWh/100 km;
combined CO2 emissions 0 g/km), the BMW i8 Coupé (combined fuel
consumption: 1.8 l/100 km; combined power consumption 14.0 kWh/100 km;
combined CO2 emissions 42 g/km) and the BMW i8 Roadster as well as for
the BMW 225xe iPerformance (combined fuel consumption: 2.5 – 2.3 l/100
km; combined power consumption 13.7 – 13.4 kWh/100 km; combined CO2
emissions 57 – 52 g/km) and the BMW 530e iPerformance. It includes
Remote Services, which allows the doors to be remotely locked and
unlocked, and also eDrive Services complete with charging station
search, as well as enabling the range and charge status to be
displayed on a smartphone.

What is more, the BMW Digital Charging Service can be used in the
first three years after the car has been newly registered. This
enables intelligent charging with optimised cost efficiency and
preferential use of self-generated solar power.
