Technical specifications of BMW cars

The cars are equipped with high-performance engines with excellent fuel efficiency. The B57D30 inline-6 diesel engine, for example, installed on the modern crossover X7, has an output of 400 hp and maximum torque of 760 N·m. The car can go from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.4 seconds. The top speed is limited by electronics at 250 km/h. The diesel fuel consumption in the combined cycle is less than 7.4 litres per 100 km. The BMW M760Li xDrive 2019 saloon is equipped with a V12 twin-turbo petrol engine with an output of 585 hp. It can go from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.8 seconds, consuming 12.5 litres of fuel in the combined cycle.

The manufacturer introduced Driving Assistant technology, which includes remote control parking. This is performed with the help of the branded interactive device Display Key. The system operates with the help of parking sensors, round-view camera, Parking Assistant Plus with hazardous obstacle detection. There are also parking assists which recognise road surface markings and are able to park in reverse. The owner can intervene at any time and switch the engine off remotely. For example, Driving Assistant is installed on the 6 series GT 5-door hatchbacks released in 2019 and on the 7 series G11/12 saloons debuted in 2015.

All modern BMW cars are equipped with the main active safety systems. In case of an emergency situation, the seat belts are pre-tensioned, the seats are returned to the upright position, and the windows and sunroof are closed automatically. The driver’s fatigue level is constantly assessed. If any signs of drowsiness are detected, the driver is informed of the nearest service or rest area.

The Night Vision system with a pedestrian detection function was developed to increase night-time driving safety. A special IR-camera detects objects that radiate heat and warns the driver. At the same time, dynamic non-dazzling lighting is activated. In case of danger of a collision, an acoustic signal is emitted and the brake system primes for optimum responsiveness. This system is available for the saloons of the 5 and 7 series.

Laser headlights with adaptive cornering lights are just one of the many innovative BMW parts. They don’t dazzle other road users while lighting up to 600 metres of the road surface ahead, which is twice as much as conventional headlights. These high-tech lenses are installed on 7 series G11/12 saloons.
