BMWism.com chronicles BMW designers through the eras |
|
Feb 05, 2012 - 9:08 PM - by BMW Forums
|
Filed under: Classics, Etc., BMW, Design/Style
Chris Bangle may be the name most recently associated with BMW design, but he's just one of many men and women who have sketched and sculpted automobiles for Bayerische Motoren Werke. BMW enthusiast website BMWism.com has gone all the way back to the beginning of the brand, when a BMW was a knockoff of an Austin 7. The names we all know show up in the chronology; giants of post-World War II automotive design world like Michelotti, Bertone, Gandini, Bracq, and of course, Hofmeister.
In addition to the Italian hired guns who sketched for BMW at one time or another, a few surprising names dot BMW's history. Josef Ganz, the largely... [Read More]

BMW to produce, sell long-wheelbase 335Li in China |
|
Feb 04, 2012 - 9:39 PM - by BMW Forums
|
Filed under: Sedan, China, BMW, Luxury
In China, it's common for managers in various levels of the corporate hierarchy to have personal drivers, hence the proliferation of long-wheelbase sedan variants that we don't see in North America. Audi sells the A4L and A6L there, and now BMW is following up the 535Li it currently offers in China with a elongated version of the new 3 Series sedan.
Likely dubbed the 335Li, the long-wheelbase 3 will be produced in China alongside the regular 3 Series. We're interested in... [Read More]

BMW Finally Builds A Serious Full Hybrid
After having us over to drive its raging new M5 last September, BMW is now aiming to show just how efficient their F10 5 Series can be with the occasionally silent and rage-free ActiveHybrid 5. Whereas the ActiveHybrid X6 and ActiveHybrid 750i arrived somewhat lacking in state-of-the-art hybrid credentials, the ActiveHybrid 5 carries a true and undeniable full parallel hybrid powertrain starting with all the goodness you find in a 535i.
This ActiveHybrid 5 is essentially a 535i sedan that pollutes... [Read More]

BMW sharpens its Edge with first M3 DTM livery |
|
Feb 02, 2012 - 12:40 AM - by BMW Forums
|
Filed under: Motorsports, Coupe, BMW, Racing
With six cars joining the grid this year in the DTM series, BMW is sure to present wildly different liveries - largely determined by the sponsors brought on board - for each one. And this is the first.
Based on a sponsorship deal with BP, this particular M3 DTM is decked out in the bright green color of Castrol Edge motor oil and the light blue of German gas station network Aral. This car's unveiling is the first time we're seeing the new touring car in anything but flat black or BMW's trademark striped white color scheme.
To pull of its entry into the competitive German racing series and take on its rivals at Mercedes-Benz and ... [Read More]

BMW i3 caught winter testing again |
|
Feb 01, 2012 - 8:54 PM - by BMW Forums
|
Filed under: Spy Photos, Hybrid, Europe, Hatchback, BMW, Electric
Spy photographers have picked up yet another batch of photos of the BMW i3. This time, the pint-sized Bimmer was spotted during some winter testing in Norway. When we last saw the awkward-looking hatchback, it was whirring about under the power of 600cc two-cylinder range-extending engine back in November. This looks to be the same i3 REx, complete with its "Hybrid Test Vehicle" stickers slathered on both doors. That means the model you see here likely boasts a range of significantly longer than the 100 miles quoted for the pure EV. How much longer? That's a question BMW isn't likely to answer until the...

New BMW 328i actually more fuel efficient than old 335d diesel |
|
Feb 01, 2012 - 6:28 PM - by BMW Forums
|
Filed under: Sedan, Performance, Technology, BMW, Diesel, Luxury
Saying automotive journalists like diesel sedans is like arguing the color pink is going to do well with the 5-year-old-girl demographic this quarter. You're not going to find too many dissenting voices. So, it should be no surprise that we love ourselves some BMW 335d. With plenty of power and impressive fuel economy, the outgoing diesel is a mechanical wonder child. And yet, thanks to the new F30-generation BMW 328i, with its 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine produces 240 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque, there's some competition for the title of most fuel efficient 3 Series.
Admittedly, the... [Read More]

BMW Z8 freshened courtesy of Senner Tuning |
|
Feb 01, 2012 - 12:12 AM - by BMW Forums
|
Filed under: Aftermarket, Classics, Convertible, Performance, Etc., Europe, BMW, Design/Style, Luxury
The 2001-2003 Z8 is one of the more graceful designs to slip from the BMW design studios in recent memory. With the droptop's classic roadster lines and plenty of performance on tap, the Z8 may not have sold like gangbusters when it was in production, but its slow-burn appeal has ensured that it has plenty of fans and impressive resale value. Despite a very limited production run of just 5,703... [Read More]
