SOMETIMES SOMETHING HAPPENS THAT MAKES US LOOK AT THINGS IN A COMPLETELY NEW LIGHT. SOMETHING THAT SETS STANDARDS WITHOUT COMPROMISING CORE PRINCIPLES.

NATURAL
PRESENCE.
Filling a room exclusively with your presence – an art only a few master to perfection. It is indeed a rare ability but one, nonetheless, that inspired the designers, developers and engineers of the new BMW Series. The result is a car makes a clear and convincing statement wherever it goes.
The inner strength of this vehicle is expressed in its design, inventiveness and power delivery. It’s demonstrated by unconditional comfort and safety. By typical BMW sportiness. By outstanding effi ciency. And it all combines to establish the uniquely commanding stature and natural leadership position of the new BMW Series Saloon.

STYLE. |
Inner values, outwardly expressed. The new BMW Series. |
|
True visionaries are impossible to categorise because true vision is |
|
always unique. Pioneers do not tread well-worn paths because new |
|
routes lead to new perspectives. And virtuosos do not set things in |
|
|
stone because free thinking means full creative expression. The results are often beyond compare and this car is the perfect example. The new BMW Series – style redefi ned.
06 07
The new BMW Series is a true head-turner – in its totality and in every detail. Anyone approaching it from the front will be immediately captivated by its elegance. The BMW double kidney grille emphasises the natural presence of the Saloon and the expressive apron underlines the exclusive character. Particularly striking are the front headlights which combine safety with exquisite design. They are also a perfect example of the beauty of cutting-edge light technology. For improved visibility, the indicators are integrated into the wing mirrors – one of many head-turning details.
10 11
Some encounters make a particularly captivating impression – as demonstrated by the new BMW Series Saloon. Even the rear profi le impresses the beholder: a dynamic design perfected with the utmost elegance. Its horizontal contouring, emphasised by the distinctive chrome strips, accentuates the visual impression of width. And the rear lights, set within a contrasting double L-shaped design, round
off an exclusive overall picture with their striking night-time presence. Even in the dark, the new BMW Series is unmistakably unique.
12 13
CHARISMA.
See what matters: Adaptive LED headlights. If the eyes are the mirror of the soul, what you see in the headlights of the new BMW Series is the very spirit of self-assurance through unprecedented design and innovative technology that illuminates the road in every situation. Their fl at, top-cut design gives the front a commanding, elegant appearance that is clearly focused on the road. The two distinctive rings within the headlights emphasise, day and night, the confi dent appearance of the new BMW Series, above all when equipped with the optional Adaptive LED headlights. One stand-out feature is how, for the daytime running lights and low-beams, illumination comes exclusively from the striking light rings.
The design of the front headlights is as impressive as the technology is fascinating. The latest LED system ensures a strikingly bright white light which illuminates the road with even greater precision. Discretely integrated into the optional Adaptive LED headlights for enhanced safety and comfort, the Adaptive cornering lights with turning lights optimally illuminate the carriageway and the road edge when cornering and turning. The anti-glare High-Beam Assistant, meanwhile, enhances safety as much for the driver as it does for oncoming traffi c.
Because the high-beam remains switched on without dazzling drivers of vehicles in front or in oncoming traffi c, visibility is signifi cantly improved. As for the light technology of BMW Night Vision, this can now be optionally supplemented with the new Dynamic Light Spot. This adds a bright spotlight to the thermal image of the infra-red camera for added focus on detected pedestrians. So fi rst impressions are confi rmed: the new BMW Series Saloon is replete with a vast range of technologies, perfectly refl ected in the charismatic appearance of the front headlights.

ENERGY.
Turning vision into advantage: the dynamics of the new
BMW SeriesWhen. great passion and outstanding innovative power meet, an energy arises that is hard to resist. As you will discover when driving the new BMW Series. The combination of comfort, dynamics and effi ciency at the highest level is without equal. Advanced engines with BMW TwinPower Turbo technology emphasise the car’s leadership position when it comes to the balance of impressive performance and
effi cient fuel consumption. The intelligent BMW xDrive all-wheel system transfers engine power optimally to every road, whether on tight bends, slippery surfaces or you’re making a hill-start and thus ensures an even greater feeling of safety in every driving situation. Technology like this not only provides typical BMW agility, but also superior driving comfort. And that gives drivers of the new BMW Series one thing above all: energy.

one of the newest and most comprehensive technology packages
to reduce fuel consumption and increase driving dynamics – from intelligent lightweight construction via BMW TwinPower Turbo technology through to ECO PRO mode. In this way, it even further enhances its role model status in its class. Not because it makes compromises, but because it takes a fi rm stance: for more effi ciency and more driving pleasure.

Driving pleasure is a core competence of every BMW. As is low fuel consumption. This apparent contradiction is resolved, among other ways, by the innovative drive concepts of the new BMW Series. To illustrate the point, here are just two examples from the impressive engine range.

CONVINCING, RESPONSIBLE,
FORWARD-LOOKING –
THE NEW BMW SERIES WITH
ECO PRO MODE.
More performance with less emissions – the aim of BMW EfficientDynamics. To this end, the innovative technology package optimises the interplay between the driver and the environment. The best example of this is ECO PRO mode , which always finds the most efficient route to driving pleasure with a multitude of possibilities. Its integration into the Driving Experience button is proof enough. As impressive as the Comfort+, Comfort, Sport and Sport+ modes, ECO PRO not only gears the whole vehicle towards maximum efficiency, it also, with ECO PRO tips, supports an efficient driving style. Fuel savings can reach up to %depending on individual driving behaviour.
ECO PRO mode offers special advantages through the intelligent fusion of the latest technologies. Preview Assistant , for instance, uses navigation data and informs the driver in good time when to lift off the accelerator due to upcoming speed restrictions. There’s also the Coasting function, which enables you to glide along the road without power and, therefore, minimum fuel consumption. This is intelligence that pays dividends – with every kilometre.

information – vasts amount of it. The skill is to fi lter out what matters and make it accessible at the right place and at the right time. Which
safety, convenience and infotainment – comes in. These are innovations that improve visibility in the dark and warn in good time of fatigue.
They ensure that driver focus always remains on the road and they practically do away with blind spots. The new BMW Series always knows in advance what to expect, with safety and convenience remaining the focus at all times thanks to clear, self-explanatory menus. Essentially, the whole world is present inside this vehicle. To be more accurate, the part you need to know about at any given moment.

EQUALS.
As rare as it is signifi cant: meeting someone who shares the same goals, who speaks the same language and on whom you can rely one hundred per cent. The new BMW Series is such a companion – and your equal at the highest level. Every detail in the cockpit has been created with the driver in mind, from the iDrive Controller to the
optional full-colour Head-Up Display from BMW ConnectedDrive*. The latter projects all driving-relevant information into your immediate fi eld of vision, so your eyes are always focused on the road. Not only is this safer, but it also signifi cantly increases driving comfort. Because this is what defi nes the perfect partner: they always make you feel good.

The interior of the new BMW Series not only convinces with its highquality, luxurious character, but also with its functionality. One central reason for this is that all cockpit controls are geared towards the needs of the driver. One, not immediately obvious, feature is particularly impressive: the optional multifunction instrument display from BMW ConnectedDrive. Only the chrome rings indicate what to expect once
the start button is pressed. You soon see, however, a completely new set of display functions that clearly demonstrate the prowess of
the new BMW Series. All important information is presented in the multifunction instrument display according to
requirements. The zoom function, with its various one of many examples and ensures even greater

INTUITION.
Always one step ahead: the Control Display with the new-
generation navigation system Professional. Quickly grasping complex information, making the right gut decisions, trusting your instincts – qualities that defi ne a leader. It follows that the new BMW Series, particularly with its BMW ConnectedDrive features, is completely in tune with, and mirrors, these qualities. It’s no coincidence that, along with the Control Display, the iDrive Controller is sited at the centre of the interior. It is also the central point of the menu interface.
The Control Display is the highly refi ned setting for all BMW ConnectedDrive operations and the optional new-generation navigation system Professional. The new menu, however, is your closest companion, providing easy to operate, intuitive guidance to this interactive world.
The contents are as clearly presented as ever, although the display is new. Three-dimensional and featuring light spots against a dark background, it now offers even greater optical depth while visuals are clear and in high-quality.

detail and its comfort is in a class of its own. As for refl ecting the personality of the driver, the new BMW Series offers a wealth of equipment, luxurious materials and sophisticated colours. But irrespective of interior choices, or whether the owner takes the
driver’s seat or travels in the rear, this car will always be an expression of individuality.

Rear seat passengers in the new BMW Series leave the outside world behind. As soon as the doors close, not a sound disturbs the atmosphere of complete rest and relaxation, while the generously roomy seating provides ideal conditions for blissful travel. The
luxurious equipment, featuring high-quality materials in the colours of your choice, further enhances the impression of very personal comfort. Clearly, the new BMW Series achieves something extraordinary: you enjoy being a passenger as much as a driver.
