BMW X5 xDrive35d Performance Engine

 BMW X5 xDrive35d BluePerformance and the BMW 335d BluePerformance mark the entering of a new era in the company's mission to deliver ultimate driving machines that combine superior performance with exemplary fuel economy, as the BMW Group debuted two vehicle models equipped with the BMW Advanced Diesel with BluePerformance at the 2008 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit.

Successfully meeting the strict exhaust emissions requirements of the North American automobile market, BMW Advanced Diesel - slated to hit US roadways in November 2008 - will be available in all 50 states. The wide availability of these vehicles marks a significant milestone in the BMW EfficientDynamics strategy, which seeks to offer customers in automobile markets around the world maximum driving pleasure with minimum fuel consumption and emissions.

BMW Advanced Diesel technology is being introduced into the US market in the form of the 3.0-liter inline-six featuring Variable Twin Turbo Technology - an engine widely acknowledged as the unchallenged benchmark for sporting performance, motoring refinement and superior efficiency in other markets around the world. At the 2008 NAIAS, BMW is presenting this 265-hp high-performance diesel engine in both the BMW X5 xDrive35d and the BMW 335d. To ensure full compliance with the demanding emission standards in California and other US states, BMW uses SCR technology to reduce nitric oxides (NOX), enabling nationwide introduction of BMW Advanced Diesel with BluePerformance as a 50-state model (BIN5).

 BMW 135i Convertible (2010) Engine

Thanks to the double clutch design, the gearbox is able to shift seamlessly without the slightest interruption of power and has the added benefit of allowing the driver to enjoy the performance of a manual gearshift with the comfort of an automatic. The Sport Automatic feature on the new seven speed transmission improves both the vehicle’s acceleration and efficiency while at the same time providing the driver with the ease and comfort of a BMW automatic gearbox. The 135 develops a total of 306 HP 295 lb-ft of torque allowing the baby Bimmer to sprint from 0 to 60 MPH in only 5 seconds and promises to return an average of 22 MPG on both city streets and the highway. The 3.0 liter inline six cylinder engine benefits from BMW TwinPower Turbo Technology, High Precision Injection and fully variable VALVETRONIC valve management to ensure that the entire rotating orchestra is not only in tune, but performing at their absolute best.

 The 135 is powered by the same twin turbocharged straight six as the larger 335 and starting in March of 2010, the BMW 1-Series will be sold with a seven speed double clutch gearbox from BMW with an all new Sport Automatic feature for more spirited driving.  The top of the line version of the compact BMW 1-Series is the 135i, and both the coupe and convertible examples have received a few updates for the 2010 model year.

 The 5-Series requires premium fuel and is fuel efficient for a large car built for driving excitement. But if you buy a car for the sheer joy of driving it, this may be the best suitable car one could find. Well-equipped, a 5-Series can also cost thousands more than some very competent rivals. Its a perfect combo of immense technology designed with class and comfort.

 As coming from the royal family, the interiors are best of its class with a appropriate price tag. The BMW 5-Series is the most athletic driver’s car, providing luxury and comfort to 5 adults and capably built for a solitary drive down a red carpet road. Later in the year, a Grand Touring version similar to the BMW X6 will appear. A performance-oriented M5 trim is also available.

Additional cooling slits in the bonnet ensure the high-performance The extended front and rear apron as well as the rear spoiler optimize the aerodynamics of the M3 GTR. For weight reduction purposes the roof, the rear spoiler as well as the front and rear aprons are made of carbon fiber reinforced plastic – just like in the race version. Apart from the extremely light V8 engine this includes dry sump lubrication, a 6-speed gearbox, a two-disc sports clutch and the variable M differential lock. The M3 GTR road version is kept technically as close as possible to the racing version.

 Due to the necessary adaptations regarding emissions and noise levels the road version still generates more than 258 kW (350 hp). The 4.0 litre V8 engine with a cylinder bank angle of 90 degrees resembles the race version featuring in excess of 450 hp. 1350 kilograms has been achieved. An empty weight of approx. By using carbon fiber body parts and by completely foregoing any comfort equipment, the two-seater M3 GTR is a car for true purists.

 Road licensing is possible. The flexible production facilities of BMW Individual permit the production of a small series. This car, which is racing from victory to victory in the American Le Mans Series (ALMS), is built by BMW M from January 2002.  In February 2001 BMW presented a pure-bred sportscar for road use – the BMW M3 GTR powered by a V8 engine.

BMW Z4 Review

January 10, 2011

On the contrary - averaging fuel consumption of 9.0 litres/100 kilometres (equal to 26.1 mpg US) and CO2 emissions of 210 grams per kilometre in the EU test cycle, the new top model But this does not mean an increase in fuel consumption and emissions. The BMW Z4 sDrive35is offers its outstanding power and performance consistently at all times. High Precision Injection: the efficient way to supreme performance. Following the policy of the BMW Group, finally, top speed of the BMW Z4 sDrive35is is limited electronically to 250 km/h or 155 mph.

 When accelerating in the BMW Z4 sDrive35is, the driver feels the additional torque and muscle particularly at medium and high engine speeds. The extra output of the optimized six-cylinder is maintained consistently throughout all load ranges, above all under very dynamic driving conditions. Through its particular characteristics, the power unit offers a particularly intense experience of this supreme performance. The peak thus offered of 500 Newton-metres/369 lb-ft gives the car particularly fast, dynamic and powerful acceleration, the BMW Z4 sDrive35is completing the sprint from a standstill to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 4.8 seconds.

 Modified engine management on the BMW Z4 sDrive35is also allows the use of an Overboost function briefly increasing engine torque under full load by another 50 Newton-metres or 37 lb-ft. Overboost function for particularly dynamic acceleration. Maximum output of 250 kW/340 hp, in turn, is delivered at 5,800 rpm. Peak torque now increased to 450 Newton-metres or 332 lb-ft comes from a low 1,400 rpm and is maintained consistently all the way to 4,500 rpm. The turbocharger system developed for the power unit of the new BMW Z4 sDrive35is maintains a high boost pressure throughout the entire load range.

 As a result, power and performance are built up with a level of spontaneity quite unusual on a turbocharged engine. Instead, the BMW Twin Turbo power unit uses two small turbochargers which, through their low inertia, cut in from the start at relatively low engine speeds, each supplying three cylinders with compressed air. The combination of BMW Twin Turbo Technology and High Precision Injection offers a level of performance a naturally-aspirated power unit would only be able to provide with a larger number of cylinders and extra displacement, meaning far higher weight and significantly greater fuel consumption. Now the outstanding potential of this power unit is being put to even greater use in the new version of the BMW Roadster, features such as optimised air supply and increased boost pressure ensuring an even better flow of power with the same high standard of efficiency. The twin-turbo straight-six power unit already giving the BMW Z4 sDrive35i truly impressive dynamics and all-round performance is characterised in particular by its spontaneous and direct response to the gas pedal, fascinating free-revving performance, and unusually economical use of fuel for a car in this class.

 More air, more boost, more torque, more driving pleasure. And parallel to the market launch of this high-performance roadster in spring 2010, the M Sports Package is being introduced for all further versions of the BMW Z4. BMW Z4 (2011) BMW Z4 (2011) The BMW Z4 sDrive35is is making its world debut at the 2010 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit. At 9.0 litres/100 kilometres (equal to 26.1 mpg US) and 210 grams in the EU test cycle, fuel consumption and CO2 emissions are the same as on the BMW Z4 sDrive35i with Sport Automatic. In conjunction with seven-speed Sport Automatic featuring double clutch operation, this new top-of-the-range Roadster accelerates from a standstill to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 4.8 seconds.

 The outstanding power and performance of the BMW Z4 sDrive35is is expressed in particular by the significant increase in pulling power and muscle to be clearly experienced in all situations. Peak torque is 450 Newton-metres/332 lb-ft, increasing briefly with the Overboost function to 500 Newton-metres/369 lb-ft. Appropriate optimisation in engine technology increases maximum output of the 3.0-litre power unit to 250 kW/340 hp. And now this charismatic roadster is entering a new dimension in driving dynamics, the new BMW Z4 sDrive35is offering an even higher standard of performance ensured both by the modified straight-six power unit with BMW Twin Turbo Technology and High Precision Injection, on the one hand, and by BMW's seven-speed Sport Automatic with double clutch operation and the M Sports Package including the adaptive M Suspension likewise featured as standard, on the other.

  Combining classic proportions with modern sportiness, the new BMW Z4 has reached the top of its market segment almost overnight.
