BMW Vision Efficient Dynamics Concept Car

BMW Vision Efficient Dynamics Concept Car

This week BMW their latest sports concept car, but it's more than a sports car. BMW Vision Efficient Dynamics is a combination of the potential of BMW Active Hybrid technology, and the power of BMW Efficient Dynamics. Technology on BMW Vision Efficient Dynamics concept car consists of a full-hybrid concept, and is powered by a three-cylinder turbo diesel and two electric motors.

Projected performance is anticipated to be in the region of zero to 100km/h in 4.8 seconds, with a top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph) - this is electronically limited. Fuel consumption in the EU test cycle measured at 3.76 liters/100km, with CO2 emissions 99 grams/kilometer.The combination of these technologies provides overall system output of 262 kW/356 hp, with maximum torque at 800 Newton-meters/590 lb-ft. Electric power is generated without compromising any fuel consumption efficiency, using a particularly efficient concept of Brake Energy Regeneration. The energy is stored in 98 lithium polymer cells, with a range of about 50 km using the electric mode alone.The car is an all-wheel drive consisting of an electric motor on both rear and front axles.

The body has been designed with consistent lightweight technology as well as aerodynamic technology, with these qualities ensuring optimized sporting performance, as well as excellent efficiency.On top of all this, the car features a 4 cheater capacity which makes it not only a sports car but also well equipped for all round use.The aerodynamics have been developed with input from Formula 1, and the result is a drag coefficient that has been optimized to just 0.22.Possibly, the cherry on top for some buyers will be the implementation of Gulling doors, which open upwards. Even the doors have been designed to make entering and exiting the vehicle easy, making use of weight-optimized door kinematics.And of course, moving onto the interior, the cabin has been designed using the very latest in modern technology. Last but not least, the roof and door inserts (made of polycarbonate glass) automatically become darker in light conditions, easing eye strain on both driver and occupants.Having said all this, the car looks incredibly impressive, and BMW has once again shown why they are among the leaders of innovation, style, efficiency, class and performance.
After all of these we can say it's the world most impressive car because it,s BMW.
