Cities thrive on diversity, on different cultures and lifestyles, on the courage to break new ground and an openness to unusual ideas. They exude a vibrant energy that keeps everything in motion – the kind of energy that inspired the designers and developers of the BMW Series.
Dynamic lines, compact dimensions – no matter whether as a -door or now as a sporty -door, it’s a design that reflects the power for progress of a modern metropolis. The technology behind the BMW Series raises the bar by delivering extraordinary efficiency and a unique driving experience. But it is, above all, its distinctive character that makes it a symbol of a contemporary, urban lifestyle.
The BMW Series is modern, extroverted, sporty and confident. It stands out from the crowd, even on the busiest of roads. Thanks to the broad range of individualisation options, such as the M Sport package, the Urban Line and the Sport Line, you can set your very own accents with both models. It’s a car with character that really makes a statement; a car for people that want to make their mark.

ON DESIGN AND INDIVIDUALITY.
UNIQUE DESIGN, COUNTLESS POSSIBILITIES.
Freddie Lund, .
THE EPITOME OF DIVERSITY, MODERNITY AND FREEDOM; FULL OF VARIETY AND NEW IDEAS; ALWAYS ON THE MOVE AND UP TO DATE. THIS PERFECTLY SUMS UP THE BMW SERIES – AND THE MODERN LIFESTYLE OF ITS DRIVERS.
The BMW Series stands out owing to its independent, modern appearance. Its dynamic design, compact dimensions and muscular look make it the perfect urban explorer. At the back, the powerfully designed wheel arches emphasise the classic BMW rear-wheel drive. Shapely contours then steer the observer’s eye forward to the vehicle’s unmistakable front, where sloping lines cap off the headlights to give the BMW a look of pure determination. However, it’s not solely the design that makes the BMW Series impossible to overlook but also its extraordinary interior: it features a generous amount

of space and plays host to the innovative BMW Effi cientDynamics and BMW ConnectedDrive technology packages for exceptional driving pleasure. The unique feeling of being behind the wheel of the BMW Series is supported by a series of additional design highlights. Choose from three design options, the Urban Line, the Sport Line as well as the M Sport package, which encompass an array of exterior and interior elements. Both lines provide the highest level of comfort and deliver the same dynamic ride, but in visual terms they’re absolutely distinct. What’s more, the M Sport package
delivers maximum sportiness and highlights the athletic character of the vehicle. That’s why the BMW Series is perfect for Adam and Freddie Lund. Both lead active lifestyles and are equally driven, but the two brothers have distinctly different personalities. The same can be said about their cars: it’s all about character.

DESIGN. IT’S ALL ABOUT THE DRIVER.THE DESIGN OF A SPACE SPEAKS VOLUMES ABOUT PERSONALITY. THE SELECTION OF MATERIALS, THE COLOURS AND EVERY ACCESSORY – EVERYTHING HAS A STORY TO TELL. A SPACE BECOMES A REFLECTION OF YOUR INDIVIDUALITY.
Urban Line Sport Line
Give yourself plenty of time and let the interior of the BMW Series really sink in. You can design this vehicle to perfectly refl ect your own personal taste. There are virtually endless possibilities.
Emphasise your individual style – the versions of the Urban and Sport Lines shown here may give you the right inspiration. You can add your own creative touch from a range of exclusive materials and colours that can be selected as you like within each line. The BMW Series is all about the needs of the driver. That goes for the countless combination possibilities, as for the optimal driver orientation. Anyone who takes a seat in the BMW Series immediately notices the intuitively arranged controls and the signifi cantly improved all-round visibility. The door pockets, where bottles with a volume of up to one litre can be stored, and the cup holders, optimally located in front of the gear lever, offer additional storage options.
The BMW Series also offers more fl exibility in the rear and the luggage compartment: the backrest optionally folds down in a :: split. So you and your passengers can enjoy four generously sized seats even when the rear centre armrest is folded down. The result is a diverse and exciting interior design that gives fresh expression to your own individual style every single day.
motivates you to drive better – or in this case, more effi ciently.
Freddie Lund: So, as the driver, I ultimately determine how effi cient my car is?
Yes and no. Basically, BMW leaves it up to the driver to decide how much they want to modify their driving style. However, when they activate the ECO PRO Mode, the vehicle characteristics also change. For example, there’s a feature that stops the automatic air conditioning and the seat heating from running on the highest setting. In addition, the driver can also select the ECO PRO Route in the navigation system. This setting will calculate the route with the lowest fuel consumption, taking into account your driving style, the traffi c situation and route profi le while adding only minimal time to your drive.

THE REQUIREMENTS ARE CLEAR: WE HAVE TO CONSERVE RESOURCES, LOWER EMISSIONS, ACT SUSTAINABLY. SOUNDS SENSIBLE. BUT WHERE DOES THAT LEAVE OUR DRIVING PLEASURE? QUESTIONS ABOUT BMW EFFICIENT DYNAMICS POSED BY ADAM UND FREDDIE LUND.
Adam Lund: Effi ciency and dynamics… isn’t that a contradiction?
BMW:On the contrary: BMW Effi cientDynamics combines both of these things. This technology package lowers emissions but still ensures impressive driving dynamics. This is best exemplifi ed by the new BMW TwinPower Turbo four-cylinder engines. They contribute towards the BMW Series’ outstanding performanceto fuel consumption ratio that’s among the best in its class.
Freddie Lund: What are the latest developments from BMW Effi cientDynamics?
One completely new feature is the ECO PRO Mode. This is based on the fact that the driver holds the key to greater fuel effi ciency with more economical driving. By giving the driver feedback and recommendations on their driving, it allows up to a percent reduction in fuel consumption. In this mode, what is known as the bonus mileage is displayed in the on-board computer. It tells the driver how many kilometres they have gained by using the tips given. Plus, if you opt for the
extended instrument panel, the rev counter also includes an Effi cientDynamics display. It shows how far the accelerator pedal should be depressed to achieve effi cient acceleration.
Adam Lund: It sounds a bit like a computer game.
Yes, you could compare it to scoring points in a computer game. At BMW, as you know, driving pleasure is a priority. And if something’s fun, it

LANE DEPARTURE WARNING –STAY ON TRACK, STAY SAFE.This option detects lane markings on the road. When the vehicle is threatening to run over the marking, the driver is alerted by a light vibration through the steering wheel. If the driver has activated the indicator, meaning that the lane change is intentional, no warning is given.
SPEED LIMIT INFO –THE SPEED LIMIT IS RIGHT WHERE YOU NEED IT – WITHIN VIEW.This driver assistance system, available upon request, shows the current speed limit and information on no-overtaking zones in the instrument cluster with extended functionality. A special camera registers relevant traffi c signs and the information is processed via a control unit along with data from the navigation system. Features including the rain sensor are also incorporated, so that variable speed limits that apply in wet conditions or at certain times of day are also registered. In this way, the driver is appropriately informed of the situation ahead.
BMW CONNECTED DRIVE DRIVER ASSISTANCE –A CO-DRIVER WHO THINKS AHEAD.BMW ConnectedDrive Driver Assistance includes innovative functions that enhance safety and convenience, maximising your driving pleasure.Inch-perfect parking? Park Distance Control (PDC) helps you do it. More light in the dark? The High-Beam Assist takes care of it.
DRIVING ASSIST – LEAN BACK AND LEAVE THE ROAD TO YOUR BMW.Driving Assist combines the camera-based systems lane departure warning and collision warning. From a speed of approx. km/h, the system draws the driver’s attention to an unintentional lane change by means of slight vibrations in the steering wheel. Collision warning detects cars ahead and warns of an imminent risk of collision. Pedestrians are detected too, so the driver is warned of a potential collision and if necessary the brakes are applied. In addition, the Attentiveness Assist monitors the driver’s steering response for signs of tiredness and signals any irregular driving behaviour on the Control Display.
The images shown here are equipment examples. Features are individually specifi c to every BMW. Depending on the model, the Control Display and presentation of content may differ.
PARKING ASSIST –
A WELCOME TOUCH.
This optional driver assistance system makes parallel parking easier. When travelling at speeds below km/h, the system measures any parking gaps the vehicle passes. When a large enough gap has been found, the Park Assist will do the steering, while the driver continues to operate the accelerator and brake pedals – supported by acoustic signals and instructions in the Control Display (not available with / R tyres).
DAZZLE-FREE HIGH-BEAM ASSISTANCE –
INTELLIGENT VISION.
Avoid dazzling other road users: the optional High-Beam Assist detects sources of light in the vehicle’s vicinity and switches between high and low beam as traffi c allows. When the system is active, an image sensor behind the interior mirror monitors traffi c and light conditions. The assist function then uses these sensor images to decide whether or not the high-beam lights can be switched on. The high-beam is switched off whenever it detects vehicles in front or oncoming traffi c, or when there is suffi cient ambient light.
REAR VIEW CAMERA –
ALWAYS KNOW WHAT’S BEHIND YOU WHEN YOU PARK.
The Rear View camera clearly shows the area behind the vehicle on the Control Display. It provides a better view when reversing in parking situations at speeds below km/h. In models with a tow bar, the Rear View camera features an extra zoom function (available in conjunction with Park Distance Control and a navigation system).

BMW EfficientDynamicsLess emissions. More driving pleasure.
BMW EfficientDynamics30 31
BMW EFFICIENT DYNAMICS – MAKING A LITTLE GO A LONG WAY.Different paths to the same destination: unmistakable BMW driving pleasure. Under the umbrella of the BMW Effi cientDynamics project, BMW is continuously developing innovative systems that will bring us closer to the long-term goal of emission-free mobility. The BMW initiative for more driving pleasure is based on several pillars:
Technology package. The optimisation of vehicles powered by conventional diesel and petrol engines continues apace. A comprehensive technology package with innovations such as BMW TwinPower Turbo technology, ECO PRO Mode and the Auto Start/Stop function reduces fuel consumption and CO
emissions, while at the same time increasing performance and driving pleasure. And it’s standard in every BMW.
BMW ActiveHybrid. The BMW range includes impressive hybrid models, such as the BMW ActiveHybrid , BMW ActiveHybrid and BMW ActiveHybrid . All models feature intelligent energy management for outstanding effi ciency and exceptional dynamics.
BMW eDrive. The smart and dynamic way of electric driving. The newly developed drive technology takes sheer driving pleasure into the future. There are three components at the heart of BMW eDrive technology: an electric synchronous motor, a high-performance lithium-ion battery and intelligent energy management. This drive technology enables an electric premium driving experience and paves the way into the emission-free mobility of the future.
BMW i. Inspired by the Effi cientDynamics philosophy, BMW i develops visionary new vehicle concepts based on electromobility, such as the BMW i and the BMW i. While including existing BMW Effi cientDynamics technologies, these vehicles also use innovations from the fi eld of intelligent lightweight construction, such as the use of carbon. With a focus on sustainability along the entire value chain and a range of supplementary mobility services, BMW i is redefi ning our understanding of individual mobility.
Auto Start/Stop function. The Auto Start/Stop function switches off the engine when the vehicle comes to a temporary standstill (e.g. at traffi c lights) to further reduce overall fuel consumption. A display in the rev counter indicates that the function is active. And even when the engine is switched off, the air conditioning system still maintains the desired interior temperature, for continued comfort despite prolonged waits.
BMW TwinPower Turbo technology. In the petrol engines, this package of innovations combines a TwinScroll turbocharger with Valvetronic, Double-VANOS and High Precision Injection. In the diesel engines, CommonRail direct injection is combined with a turbocharger featuring variable turbine geometry. This signifi cantly reduces the fuel consumption of the BMW TwinPower Turbo petrol and diesel engines – while noticeably increasing performance across all engine speeds.
Brake Energy Regeneration. Brake Energy Regeneration means that the generator (alternator) usually only generates electricity when the driver brakes or takes their foot off the accelerator. Previously unused kinetic energy is transformed into electrical energy and fed into the battery.
Electric power steering. Unlike conventional hydraulic steering systems, the electric power steering only uses energy during actual steering. The electric motor remains inactive when driving straight ahead.
ECO PRO Mode. As soon as you switch to the ECO PRO Mode, everything is geared towards greater effi ciency and depending on your individual driving style, this results in a reduction in fuel consumption of up to percent, as shown in an internal BMW study. Additional features such as Coasting, the Route-Ahead Assist and ECO PRO Route enable further savings of up to percent. Accelerator pedal response, transmission characteristics and gearshift points are optimised and heating/air conditioning is intelligently adapted. The Control Display indicates which BMW Effi cientDynamics features are helping reduce fuel consumption at any given point. You’ll also receive ECO PRO tips that relate to your current driving situation to help you boost effi ciency even further.
Optimum Shift Indicator. Timely gear shifts are one of the simplest and most effective ways to save fuel. This is where the Optimum Shift Indicator can help. It shows the driver what gear to use in order to drive more effi ciently.
Eight-speed Steptronic transmission with Auto Start/Stop function. The particularly smooth gear shifts of the new eight-speed Steptronic transmission produce greater engine effi ciency at every speed. The result: a reduction in fuel consumption and more comfortable gear changes. Combined with the Auto Start/Stop function and the “Coasting” setting of the ECO PRO mode, it offers best-in-class driving comfort and signifi cantly lower fuel consumption and emissions levels.

In short, it’s a vehicle that perfectly combines pure dynamism with excellent everyday practicality.
BMW M135i34 35
Stunning, no matter how you look at it. A range of unique and exclusive details make the BMW Mi visually striking. The exterior design boasts features such as the M-style air intakes in the front apron, exterior mirror caps in metallic Ferric Grey paint fi nish, the “M” logo on the side, as well as the BMW Individual High-Gloss Shadow Line. These sporty elements are perfectly complemented by " M light alloy wheels in a Ferric Grey
Double-spoke M design with High Performance mixed tyres. The interior is distinguished by door sill fi nishers with the 'Mi' logo, sport seats featuring Hexagon cloth/Alcantara upholstery, the Aluminium Hexagon interior trim with matt Estoril Blue accent lines, and the BMW Individual headliner in Anthracite.
BMW Mi. This M Performance TwinPower Turbo six-cylinder in-line petrol engine combines a TwinScroll turbocharger with Valvetronic, Double-VANOS and High Precision Injection. It’s a powerful engine distinguished by high torque (even at low engine speeds), sensational responsiveness and a broad rpm range. All of which translates into a highly dynamic and responsive engine: powerful torque of Nm,
a maximum output of kW and acceleration from to km/h in just . seconds. This outstanding engine performance together with a low fuel consumption of . litres per km and CO
emissions of g/km –
in conjunction with the eight-speed Steptronic sport transmission – are proof, once again, of BMW’s power of innovation in uniting dynamic performance with effi ciency.
For further information about fuel consumption and CO emissions, please see pages / or

TRACTION, STABILITY, DYNAMICS: BMW xDRIVE.
This intelligent four-wheel drive system perfectly adapts the ride to diffi cult road conditions by always ensuring maximum traction. Using data such as the steering angle or wheel rotation speeds, xDrive reacts immediately upon detecting a tendency to over- or understeer, and employs a controlled clutch to fl exibly distribute drive power between the axles of your BMW in only fractions of a second, ensuring optimum road adhesion. As a result, xDrive combines the benefi ts of all-wheel-drive – traction, directional stability and driving safety – with typical BMW Series agility.
THE IDEAL FOUNDATION FOR SUPERIOR DRIVING DYNAMICS. AN OUTSTANDING SUSPENSION.Pure driving dynamics – it’s a quality embodied by every single BMW without exception. And the technical basis for this thrilling driving experience lies in the suspension. It ensures optimal contact with the road surface and ideal road holding in every situation – BMW engineers are continually re-inventing and refi ning those classic BMW driving dynamics to ensure that every BMW chassis puts the driver in direct contact with the vehicle and the passion for dynamic driving – while also providing the highest levels of safety and comfort. In the BMW Series, this is achieved by a weight distribution of almost : between the front and rear axles, as well as neutral steering behaviour, a high level of directional stability and fantastic traction. Read on and fi nd out more.
Rear-wheel drive. The BMW Series is the only model in its class to feature rear-wheel drive. This type of drive provides the kind of extraordinary agility and manoeuvrability that BMW is renowned for. Italso enables the vehicle weight to be ideally distributed across the entire running gear, which optimises traction and thereby the transmission of power to the road.
Lightweight suspension. The suspension of the BMW Series is designed to perfectly complement the engine and transmission. You can feel it in the precision of the steering, the agile handling, superb acoustic characteristics, lack of body roll and direct feedback from the road. The front suspension consists of a lightweight double-joint trailing-arm axle, which combines maximum strength with minimum weight. Together with the multi-arm rear axle and the rear-wheel drive, sporty handling is guaranteed.
Adaptive suspension. The electronically controlled dampers are adapted to your driving style and the conditions of the road. You can modify the damper characteristics via the Driving Experience Control switch. A noticeably fi rmer damper setting is activated when the Sport or Sport+ mode is selected via the Driving Experience Control switch. The optional adaptive suspension includes a chassis that has been lowered by millimetres, which does nothing to reduce the comfort of the BMW Series.
Steering. Unwanted torque steer on the front axle is completely foreignto the BMW Series, thanks to the strict separation of steering and drive train. The steering power is evenly distributed and the steering angle is small. As a result, the driver can “feel” road conditions and receives more direct feedback when cornering. On top of it all, the electric power steering supports the reduction of fuel consumption.
Variable sport steering. This optional mechanical system constantly adjusts the steering ratio to suit the driving situation. With the help of Servotronic, it reduces the steering movement required to turn the wheels to make light work of parking and manoeuvring. Furthermore, it increases agility, noticeable in particular when driving dynamically around tight bends and curves (standard with Mi).
Driving Experience Control, incl. ECO PRO Mode. This allows drive and suspension components (such as steering) to be individually adapted via the Comfort, Sport and Sport+ modes. Activating the ECO PRO Mode helps optimise fuel consumption and displays the bonus mileage in the instrument panel.
Chassis. The BMW Series features a particularly rigid passenger cell. This not only leads to increased steering precision and agility, but also improves passenger safety. The body only yields in precisely defi ned areas at the front and rear. Should an accident occur, these deformation areas are capable of absorbing a large amount of the impact, thereby minimising the severity of the collision as it happens.

UNPARALLELED SAFETY WITH THE LATEST BMW TECHNOLOGIES.The BMW Series surrounds you with cutting-edge technologies for every eventuality. Superb handling and innovative equipment come standard. Drivers benefi t from the very latest technologies that provide optimal support at all times. You’ll feel safe and protected, no matter where your journey takes you.
Chassis and safety38 39
BMW Mi also available with High-Grip " High Performance non-Runfl at tyres as an option.
Adaptive Headlights with variable light distribution, incl. cornering lights and the High-Beam Assist, illuminate bends at greater distances by optimally adjusting the swivelling headlights as soon as the driver turns the steering wheel. The variable light distribution adjusts the headlights according to the current speed. The lights are lowered for greater visibility when driving in the city and at high speeds they’re raised to further extend the driver’s field of vision. To improve short-range visibility, the cornering lights integrated into the fog lights are automatically activated, even when the vehicle is at a standstill, as soon as the indicator is switched on or the steering wheel is turned.
Dynamic Stability Control (DSC), incl. Cornering Brake Control (CBC), hill-start and braking assist, brake drying function and braking readiness. DSC recognises the risk of skidding before it occurs and stabilises the car in milliseconds. The traction mode sub-function (DTC) allows increased wheel slip to optimise acceleration in certain driving conditions and to enable more dynamic driving.
Disc brakes, all-round (front, inner-vented) are specially designed to ensure maximum driving safety and easy operation. The braking system is characterised by its long service life and the provision of consistently short braking distances.
Airbags are just one of the safety elements in your BMW that make up a perfectly coordinated system. Six airbags are installed for precise protection: driver and front passenger airbags, the head airbags (curtain) for front and rear as well as side airbags stowed in the front seatbacks.
Standard equipment Optional equipment
The front and rear bumpers feature easily-replaceable deformation elements that absorb impacts at speeds up to km/h.
Passenger cell. The system of members and node connections in the functionally constructed body structure combined with the strategic deployment of high-strength materials delivers maximum passive safety in front, side and rear crashes. Defined deformation zones mean that the body structure can absorb impact energy, increasing passenger protection.
BMW restraint system for the driver and front passenger, comprises three-point seat belts combined with integral tensioners and force limiters. So in the event of a collision, passengers are held safely in their seats. The seat belt buckles in the rear are marked to avoid them being incorrectly fastened.
Runflat tyres. Reinforced side walls prevent the tyres from completely collapsing or loosening from the rim if the air pressure drops, helping you make it safely to the next repair shop. The tyre pressure monitor lets the driver the driver know when the air pressure in one of the tyres drops % or more below the recommended bar. After a tyre has been changed, the system must be initialised with the correct air pressure in all the tyres.
