BMW i VISION DYNAMICS.

Visionary solutions and future-ready concepts become reality: The BMW i Vision Dynamics portrays the image of electric mobility in a dynamic, practical model. With a possible range of 600 km (373 miles), over 200 km/h (120 mph) top speed and an acceleration of 0-100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.0 seconds the BMW i Visions Dynamics takes the e-mobility experience to a new level. A progressive, four-door Gran Coupé positioned between the i3 and i8. The tension between large surfaces and finely worked details points to the innovative technology at the heart of the car in an understated way.

The dynamics of the future.

Fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.

  • The figures for fuel consumption and CO2 emissions depend on the wheel and tyre sizes selected.

    Further information on the official fuel consumption and on the official specific CO2 emissions of new automobiles can be found in the guidelines on fuel consumption and CO2 emissions of new automobiles which are available free of charge at all retail outlets and from DAT Deutsche Automobil Treuhand GmbH, Hellmuth-Hirth-Str. 1, 73760 Ostfildern, Germany.

    The engine meets the EU5 emissions standard. Fuel consumption is determined in accordance with the ECE driving cycle (93/116/EC), made up of approximately one-third urban traffic and two-thirds extra-urban driving (based on the distance covered). CO2 emissions are measured in addition to fuel consumption as such. Fuel consumption levels are calculated on the basis of vehicles with standard equipment. Special equipment (e.g. wider tyres) can have a significant impact on fuel consumption and driving performance levels.

    These specifications apply to vehicles on the German market. The models illustrated may, in part, include optional equipment and accessories not fitted as standard. According to the specific requirements of other markets, alterations may occur regarding models, standard and optional equipment, as described in the text and illustrations. For precise information, please contact your BMW partner. Subject to change in design and equipment. Subject to error. Equipment specific to national markets is not represented here.

    Unladen weight (EU) in kg: the figure quoted includes a 90 per cent tank filling, 68 kg for the driver and 7 kg for luggage. Unladen weight applies to vehicles with standard equipment. Optional equipment may increase this figure.

    Rated output: BMW recommends the use of super unleaded 95 RON fuel. Unleaded RON 91 fuel or higher with a maximum ethanol limit of 10 per cent (E10) is also permitted. The performance and fuel consumption rates listed are based on the use of RON 98 fuel.

    Top speed: electronically limited.

    Power consumption and CO2 emissions for the BMW i3 (94 Ah) with Range Extender:
    CO2 emissions in g/km (combined): 12* / 13**
    Power consumption in kWh/100 km (combined): 11.3* / 11.9**
    Fuel consumption in l/100 km (combined): 0.6

    Power consumption and CO2 emissions for the BMW i8 with Plug-In Hybrid BMW eDrive:
    CO2 emissions in g/km (combined): 49
    Power consumption in kWh/100 km (combined): 11.9
    Fuel consumption in l/100 km (combined): 2.1

    * Wheels cluster 1: 19‘‘ wheels

    ** Wheels cluster 2: 20“ wheels; winter tyres

    The figures for fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and power consumption depend on the wheel and tyre sizes selected.

    The driving range depends on a variety of factors, especially: personal driving behaviour, selected route, weather conditions, usage of heating/cooling and preconditioning.

    Further information about the official fuel consumption and the official specific CO2 emissions for new passenger automobiles can be found in the 'New Passenger Vehicle Fuel Consumption and CO2 Emission Guidelines', which are available free of charge at all sales outlets and from DAT Deutsche Automobil Treuhand GmbH, Hellmuth-Hirth-Str. 1, 73760 Ostfildern, Germany.
