BMW X5 2014

Introduction: BMW X5 2014

The line angle is committed to the success of customized: Flatter windshield, smoother surfaces, less air resistance (cw-value 0.31) - The new BMW X5 looks slimmer, and has become clearly more modern. You can see it and feel it, but looking a bit lost after the strong fresh sources.

The courage, the BMW has proved twelve years ago, when they had made their way to the X5 radically to conquer a terrain that other manufacturers had only tentatively listed in their maps, has remained in the model renewal on the track. Revised range of engines, improved aerodynamics, reduced consumption, so in total, the moving up of the gathered technical expertise in a new generation of models. This is all interesting and well and exactly what the BMW success is forming (in the conservative department, which Electric offensive will probably be a separately verhandelndes chapter). But while Land Rover, once briefly a BMW brand, provides the Range Rover new benchmarks in design and lightweight, and recently it was announced that Volkswagen will build the next Touareg aluminum, administered BMW its successful approach, grown to the X5 (more than 1 million vehicles since model creation), with caution and in nuances.

A touch easier, the X5 has already become.
But when 30d he still weighs over two tons (exactly 2070 kg, which is five pounds less than the previous-30d). The growth of three centimeters in length makes for passengers not a big difference, the trunk, however, has won. The upper part of the split tailgate opens and closes also now standard on electric, also via key remote control, and in very tidy cockpit stands out the free-standing big screen the most.

Most surprising how consistently BMW X5 for the 'on-road' interpretation. Sport takes place on the road, easy to select by driving experience switch. All-wheel drive is standard, but it now also has the option to give it up. The 25d, available in the second momentum from December, as sDrive can be so ordered with pure rear-wheel drive xDrive as it exists, of course also.

And then, of course, equal emphasis on the asphalt HIGHNESS (would not usually BMW):
From start to market (mid-November) in addition to the 258 hp six-cylinder xDrive30d also directly to the M-50d diesel and a V8 petrol engine with three turbochargers and 450 hp (50i) are thrown into the race. For this purpose, the whole range of options to raise the driving dynamics further: four packets about adaptive suspension (Comfort, Dynamic, Professional, and M) and for the all-wheel a Performance Control and - new - a status indicator.

As to the assistance systems, the X5 the sevens is now after about a thing.
The list of extras includes everything from the color head-up display to the night vision function which captures heat detector also by people and animals in motion. Special attention deserve the X5 for the new 360-degree camera system and an active parking assistance, not only directing, but also gas and brake takes over (from December).

So comes the BMW M4 Convertible

On the Internet, a first image from the undisguised BMW M4 Convertible has surfaced. The open M4 comes with an ultra-powerful turbo in-line six.
On the new BMW M4 convertible sports car fans will have to wait a bit, it is only in the fall of 2014. But watching it already: On the Internet, a first ungetarntes image from the open M4 has emerged. Then we clearly see the changing of the rear apron M-model in comparison to the series.

Once BMW had adopted the concept of the high-revving, eight-cylinder, murmured some fans on internet forums. They really need to worry not, because the new M4-convertible tubes should properly according to BMW. In addition, are in the lower speed range by charging up to 25 percent more power to. Downsizing the consumption is expected to fall.
