THIS HAS GONE IN.
The pleasure you get from driving a BMW is the result of meticulous engineering – always setting the benchmark because it goes far beyond outright engine performance. This is the tradition
behind BMW Effi cientDynamics. It includes the visionary Hydrogen engine, already used in completely emission-free BMW Hydrogen 7 vehicles and BMW ActiveHybrid technology, an intelligent,
demand-oriented combination of internal combustion engine and electric motor. And every BMW already includes the multi-award-winning BMW Effi cientDynamics technology package as
standard, boosting dynamics even further while simultaneously reducing fuel consumption and CO
High Precision Injection
In this cutting-edge generation of petrol direct injection, the
Piezo injectors are positioned very close to the spark plugs.
They inject the fuel at high pressure and with extreme precision
to ensure particularly effi cient combustion.

Lightweight engineering
Where it makes sense to use light materials, our engineers use
aluminium – in, for example, the front part of the car, the doors, the
bootlid and the chassis. Additionally, the roof is all-aluminium and,
thanks to an aluminium crankcase, the six-cylinder diesel engine
is among the lightest in its class. The weight savings reduce
fuel consumption and at the same time optimise the axle load
distribution for improved dynamics.
Brake Energy Regeneration
To supply a battery with electrical energy, the generator alternator)
is customarily driven using engine power, which demands
permanent fuel consumption. Brake Energy Regeneration
means the generator usually only produces electricity when
the driver either takes a foot off the accelerator or brakes –
previously unused kinetic energy is transformed in coasting
mode into electrical energy before being fed into the battery.
In this way, electricity is generated without consuming fuel.
Some BMW EfficientDynamics features are dependent on the car's
equipment and are not available for all model variants. Your BMW partner
will be happy to inform you of all equipment details.
AND THIS IS WHAT COMES OUT.
Thanks to innovative features of BMW
Effi cientDynamics, BMW has been able to
signifi cantly reduce CO emissions in many
models But that's just for starters We're carrying
on our research with BMW Effi cientDynamics in
the quest to bring you more driving pleasure
and lower emissions
