The hallmark of a good operating system is that you don’t notice it.

This has gone in.

The pleasure you get from driving a BMW is the result of fi ne engineering – always setting the benchmark because it is based on much more than engine power. This is the tradition behind BMW Effi cientDynamics. It includes the visionary Hydrogen engine, already used in a number of completely emission-free BMW 7 Series saloons. Also going into production soon is the BMW ActiveHybrid – an intelligent, demand-oriented combination of internal combustion engine and electric motor. And every BMW already includes a multi-award-winning BMW Effi cientDynamics technology package as standard that boosts dynamics even further whilst simultaneously reducing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.

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. The injectors’ central positioning means only part of the combustion chamber needs to be filled with an ignitable petrol-air mixture. The engine can then run “leanly” and highly efficiently, precisely in the heavily used moderate load range.

Electric Power Steering

In comparison with conventional, hydraulic steering systems, the electrical steering only uses energy during actual steering. When the steering wheel position is constant – for example at high speed along the motorway – the electric motor is inactive.

Auto Start/Stop function

BMW four-cylinder engines with 6-speed manual transmission automatically shut down when the vehicle is stationary, for example at a red light or in a jam, when the driver activates the clutch and switches to neutral. The engine restarts as soon as the clutch is activated again. This innovation signifi cantly reduces fuel consumption especially in city traffi c.

Tyres with reduced rolling-resistance

While driving, tyres are constantly changing shape. This uses up energy and thus fuel. Tyres with reduced rolling-resistance have an improved design and use special materials for their road treads and side walls, thus reducing deformation.

Optimum Shift Indicator

Timely gear shifts are one of the most effective and easiest ways to save fuel. This is where the Optimum Shift Indicator in conjunction with 6-speed manual transmission comes in. It shows the driver what gear to use in order to save fuel.

Brake Energy Regeneration

To supply a battery with electrical energy, the generator (alternator) is permanently driven using engine power, which demands additional fuel consumption. Brake Energy Regeneration means the generator usually only generates electricity when the driver takes the foot off the accelerator or the brake – previously unused kinetic energy is transformed in coasting mode into electrical energy before being fed into the battery.

In this way, electricity is generated while coasting, 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 provide you with information on all equipment details.

This is what comes out.

BMW already offers 24 models with CO2 emissions of 140 g/km and signifi cantly less. But that’s just for starters. We’re carrying on our research with Effi cientDynamics – in the quest to bring you more driving pleasure and less emissions.

Joy is always stylish.

The Lifestyle Edition.

The appearance of these exclusive Edition models clearly evokes a sense of timeless elegance and makes a particularly sophisticated impression. Perfectly matching colours and exterior and interior designs reserved for the Lifestyle Edition create a harmonious overall effect sure to set your pulse racing. The BMW 116i Lifestyle Edition in optional Marrakesh Brown metallic shown here features impressive optionally available18-inch light-alloy wheels in W-spoke styling 263. Chromeplated exhaust tailpipes and body colour exterior parts also add to its attraction. The B-pillar trim, the window recess finishers, the mirror base and exterior mirrors all come in high-gloss Black. It is, after all, this level of attention to detail that makes all the difference.

The first thing that strikes you about the BMW 1 Series Lifestyle Edition’s interior is its refined, well thought-out overall design. Every detail appears to be cast in the same mould. The optional Pearlpoint upholstery with cloth/leather sports seats (pictured left) or the standard Network cloth upholstery (pictured above) – both with a Magma Brown/Black colour combination – as well as the interior trim in Marrakesh Brown metallic create a warm and stylish atmosphere. The BMW Individual roofliner in elegantly understated Anthracite adds the finishing touches to the perfectly unified interior design. Even as you get into the car, the front door sill finishers with chrome-plated “BMW Edition” lettering deliver a clear message: you value individuality and style.
