BMW DYNAMIC EFFICIENT

 
The latest BMW Concept Car for the Efficient Dynamics Philosophy.

This unique car combines the performance of a BMW M vehicle with a standard of fuel efficiency and emission management that exceeds even the current levels achieved by the latest small cars.
The power train provides a top speed limited electronically to 155 mph, with acceleration to 100 km/h in 4.8 seconds.
Average fuel consumption in the EU test cycle is 3.76 liters/100 kilometers,
The CO2 emission rating is 99 grams per kilometer. The car’s emission rating is just 50 grams per kilometer. 

The power and performance are made possible by combining a fuel-efficient 3-cylinder turbo diesel with one electric motor on each axle. The intelligent combination of these units, together with precisely controlled energy management, simultaneously enhances the dynamic performance and the efficiency of the car. Overall system output is 356 horsepower, and peak torque is 590 lb-ft.
The special arrangement of the two motors and diesel engine allows all-wheel drive when driving in all-electric mode. The result is minimum power loss and a harmonious transmission of the power available under all conditions. 
The specific output of 109 hp per liter sets a new benchmark in diesel technology.

Allows the driver to shift gears without the slightest interruption of power.
BMW Vision Efficient Dynamics is able to run completely under electric power, with the power of the turbo diesel engine alone,
The two electric motors may be used both for accelerating and for regenerating energy when applying the brakes and while coasting.
Serial arrangement of the lithium-polymer cells serves to generate nominal voltage of 364 volts, the gross storage capacity of the battery is 10.8 kW/h. 
The system requires a maximum of 2 ½ hours to fully charge the lithium-polymer cells. And wherever a power source with higher voltage and amperage (380 V, 32 Amps) is available, the charge time is an even shorter 44 minutes. 

Fuel tank at the rear end of the central chassis tunnel, offering a capacity of 6.6 gallons. to cover a distance of approximately 400 miles Benefitting from an extra range of up to 31 miles in the all-electric mode, making a total of 431 miles
 Acceleration from a standstill to 100 km/h, for example, comes in just 4.8 seconds 
The tires measure 195/55, while large 21-inch wheels provide a contact surface on the road otherwise offered only by a much wider tire.
Luggage capacity of 5.3 cu ft,
