The hallmark of a good operating system is that
you don’t notice it.
This has gone in.
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.
Auto Start/Stop fun ction
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.
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.
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
reducin g deformatio n.
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.
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.
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.
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.

Less emissions. More driving pleasure.
The first thing that strikes you about the BMW 1 Series Life style
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.
The appe arance of these exclusive Editi on models clearl y evokes a
sense of timeless elegance and makes a particularly sophisticated
impression. Perfectly matching colours and exterior and interior designs
reser ved for the Lifes tyle Edition cre ate a harmonious ove rall effect su re
to set your pul se racing. The BMW 116i Life style Edition in o ptional
Marrakesh Brown metallic shown here features impressive optionally
available18-inch light-alloy wheels in W-spoke styling 263. Chromeplate d exhaust tailp ipes and body col our exterior par ts also add to its
attraction. The B-pillar trim, the window recess finishers, the mirror
base and ext erior mir rors all come in high-gl oss Black. It is , after all, this
level of att ention to detail that m akes all the diff erence.
Joy is always stylish.
The Lifestyle Edition.
