with variable turbine geometry. The new diesel engine achieves its maximum output of 180 kW/245 bhp at an engine speed of 4,000 rpm, while its maximum torque of 520 Nm is available from 1,750 to 3,000 rpm. The new BMW 330d accelerates in 6.1 seconds from zero to 100 km/h, its maximum speed is electronically cut off at 250 km/h. The average fuel consumption of the new BMW 330d according to the EU test cycle is 5.7 litres per 100 kilometres, its CO2 level is 152 grams per kilometre. BMW BluePerformance technology: prepared for the exhaust gas norm EU 6. The new BMW 330d is fitted as standard with a diesel particulate filter and an oxidation catalytic converter. Thanks to the innovations applied to the new 6-cylinder engine, it significantly undercuts the thresholds set for the exhaust gas norm EU 5. In the oxidation catalytic converter, hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide are converted to water and carbon dioxide. For further reduction of nitrogen oxides in exhaust emissions, a NOX-storage catalytic converter can be integrated in the exhaust gas treatment system of the new 6-cylinder diesel engine, in addition to the oxidation catalytic converter. In the optional configuration with BMW BluePerformance technology, the new BMW 330d even meets the requirements for classification according to the future exhaust gas norm EU 6. Like the new BMW 6-cylinder diesel engines, the engines of the models BMW 320d and BMW 318d also meet the requirements of the exhaust gas norm EU 5 as standard. Their 4-cylinder diesel engines have been modified in a number of details, and the further reduction of exhaust emission levels has been implemented so as to have no impact on fuel consumption and the acoustic properties of the engines. Engine selection: the greatest variety and highest level of efficiency in the segment. The ideal combination of driving fun and efficiency also characterises the other engines available for the new BMW 3 Series. Spontaneously responding, high-torque 6-cylinder and 4-cylinder diesel engines, powerful and highrevving 4-cylinder petrol engines and the 6-cylinder in-line petrol engine wellknown for its unique refinement and dynamic power delivery form a portfolio which is unequalled in the segment of the BMW 3 Series. With five petrol engines and five diesel engines, the new BMW 3 Series offers the most extensive range in its segment. When it comes to both petrol and diesel power units, customers have the choice of four 4-cylinder and three 6-cylinder engines. The output range extends from 105 kW/143 bhp in the 4-cylinder models BMW 318i and BMW 318d to a 225 kW/306 bhp

was introduced in the BMW 3 Series for the first time worldwide in 2005, provides a weight reduction of around 24 per cent as compared to conventional aluminium crankcases. In the BMW 330i, the 2,996 cubic centimetre 6-cylinder petrol engine delivers a sporty 200 kW/272 bhp at 6,700 rpm, in the BMW 325i the figures are 160 kW/218 bhp at 6,100 rpm. The maximum torque is 320 Nm between 2,750 and 3,000 rpm in the BMW 330i and 270 Nm between 2,400 and 4,200 rpm in the BMW 325i. For the sprint from zero to 100 km/h, the BMW 330i Saloon requires no more than 6.1 seconds (Touring: 6.2 seconds). The electronically limited maximum speed is 250 km/h for both body types. In the EU test cycle the average fuel consumption is 7.2 litres per 100 kilometres for the Saloon and 7.3 litres for the Touring model. The BMW 325i accelerates from zero to 100 km/h in 6.7 seconds (Touring: 6.9 seconds), the maximum speed is 250 and 248 km/h respectively. The average fuel consumption according to the EU norm is 7.1 litres (BMW 325i Saloon) and 7.2 litres (BMW 325i Touring) per 100 kilometres. Light, powerful, efficient: 4-cylinder engines with High Precision Injection. In the 4-cylinder petrol engines for the new BMW 3 Series, too, the engine developers have opted for High Precision Injection. The light alloy engine with a capacity of 1,995 cubic centimetres lines up for the start with two levels of output. Both engines have the second generation of petrol direct injection in so-called lean operation mode. In this way, both the BMW 320i and the BMW 318i benefit from this innovative technology consisting of piezo injectors centrally placed in the cylinder head which precisely dose the fuel and feed it into the combustion chambers in layers of differing concentration. The crankcase of these two engine types is made of aluminium. The main difference in design is the use of a controlled intake tube in the more powerful version. In the BMW 320i there is a 4-cylinder engine with an output of 125 kW/170 bhp at an engine speed of 6,700 rpm, with maximum torque available at 4,250 rpm. This enables an acceleration rate from zero to 100 km/h in 8.2 seconds (BMW 320i Saloon) and 8.4 seconds (BMW 320i Touring). The maximum speed is 228 km/h (Touring: 226 km/h). In the EU test cycle the BMW 320i has an average fuel consumption of 6.1 litres per 100 kilometres (Touring: 6.2 litres).

The engine of the new BMW 325d provides its maximum torque of 400 Nm early on at an engine speed of just 1,300 rpm and maintains this over a broad range, up to 3,250 rpm. Thanks to this excellent pulling power, sporty performance figures are guaranteed even in the entry-level version of the 6-cylinder. The Saloon accelerates from zero to 100 km/h in 7.4 seconds, the Touring in 7.6 seconds. The maximum speeds of the new BMW 325d models are 235 km/h and 233 km/h respectively. Its average fuel consumption according to the EU norm of 5.7 litres (Touring: 5.9 litres) per 100 kilometres shows the efficiency of this engine. Light, compact, high-torque and efficient: 4-cylinder diesel in the BMW 3 Series. The power units of the BMW 320d and the BMW 318d are lighter, more efficient and more powerful than comparable 4-cylinder diesel engines in the competitive environment. In addition to the capacity of 2.0 litres, the aluminium crankcase, turbocharging with variable turbine geometry and common rail direct injection of the third generation are among the features shared by the two 4-cylinder diesel engines. One difference between the two lies in the fuel supply. In the BMW 318d, magnet valves with a maximum injection pressure of 1,600 bar perform this function, while in the more powerful engine of the BMW 320d the diesel fuel is fed in by four piezo injectors at a pressure of up to 1,800 bar. With an output of 130 kW/177 bhp at an engine speed of 4,000 rpm and a maximum torque of 350 Nm between 1,750 and 3,000 rpm the engine of the new BMW 320d is not only among the most efficient but also the sportiest representatives of the class of 4-cylinder diesel engines. The Saloon accelerates in just 7.9 seconds, the Touring in 8.1 seconds from standing to 100 km/h, the top speeds are 230 and 228 km/h respectively. Especially in combination with these performance figures, the average fuel consumption according to the EU test cycle of just 4.8 litres per 100 kilometres (BMW 320d Touring: 4.9 litres) is an outstanding figure. The CO2 emission level of the BMW 320d amounts to 128 grams per kilometre (Touring: 130 g/km). Maximum efficiency in the segment of the BMW 3 Series is embodied by the new BMW 318d. Its 4-cylinder diesel engine delivers 105 kW/143 bhp at an engine speed of 4,000 rpm and generates a maximum torque of 300 Nm between 1,750 and 2,500 rpm. This allows the new BMW 318d to pass the 100 km/h mark after just 9.3 seconds (Touring: 9.6 seconds). The maximum speed of both the Saloon and the Touring model is 210 km/h. The BMW 318d is the most economical representative of its class with an average fuel

Simple navigation through the menu levels. By pushing the Controller to the left and right it is simple to navigate through the various menu levels. The customer is provided with maximum orientation due to the clear graphic arrangement in the form of stacked panels and the display of Controller movements currently permitted. In this way the operating options provided by the Controller and the graphic display supplement each other perfectly. All menus are structured according to a uniform scheme which significantly shortens the familiarisation period. At the same time, the functions are arranged in such a way that in the course of long-term use the most important functions are reached most quickly. Another new feature of the Controller is the four direct selection buttons for the most frequently used menu items. These buttons can be used for to switch spontaneously between CD, radio, telephone and navigation functions. The direct selection buttons are supplemented by three control buttons which serve to initiate start menus, return to the last active menu and show additional options in the current context. Well-established but now with an even higher degree of individualisation: the functional bookmarks. With its versatility, BMW iDrive supports the personal operating preferences of the driver, thereby offering yet another bonus in terms of comfort and individuality. The functional bookmarks located in the area of the audio system in the central console also serve this function. In addition to radio stations, telephone numbers and navigation destinations, these eight buttons can now also be used for speed selection of other iDrive menu items, too. This means that with a simple press of a button, the driver is able not just to select his favourite radio station or home address but also have the navigation map displayed to his favourite scale, obtain an overview of traffic bulletins or regulate the loudspeaker balance of the audio system. Large-format display with variable layout, preview maps and full-screen display. The new iDrive in the BMW 3 Series offers an 8.8 inch Control Display. With this high resolution it provides significantly enhanced display of graphic details. The structure of the operating menu also makes it easier to find the desired function. The flat menu trees and the user system derived from computer technology simplify rapid access to the desired functions.

BMW Media Information 7/2008 Page 35
Maps and symbols can also be display three-dimensionally. The use of the navigation system Professional is also simpler and more attractive now thanks to the optimised technical functions of BMW iDrive. The full-screen map display function offers an incomparably detailed overview of the region currently being visited. As an addition to the perspective display already provided, it is now also possible to have an altitude map displayed. Selected places of interest along the route are highlighted in the form of photographically realistic graphics. The special map view under the menu item Highlight traffic situation provides an up-to-date convenience not just in urban traffic. In this view, current tailback information is marked in red on the display. On the motorway, this system ensures the driver always has a helpful overview when it comes to route changes due to traffic jams. Operation by voice and Controller can be conveniently combined. Another innovation of the iDrive system is that of multi-mode operation by voice and Controller. The customer can switch easily between each mode while performing a single task, and if necessary the voice control function can remain active during Controller entry, to be used at the same time. It is activated by pressing the relevant button on the multifunction steering wheel. Hard drive for audio files and navigation system. The features of the navigation system Professional also includes a hard drive integrated in the vehicle. This data medium has a capacity of 80 GB and enables exceptionally rapid access to digital navigation maps thereby setting a new benchmark. The hard drive can also be used for an extensive collection of music files. The system enables music files to be transferred to the hard drive from a CD, MP3 player or USB stick. The iDrive system can be used to access a personal music collection, a CD, another external player or the radio. The memory capacity available for music files is equivalent to about 100 audio CDs. In the vehicle database the individual music files are stored along with title and details of the artist.

BMW ConnectedDrive: A network for increased safety and comfort.
Intelligent networking of driver, vehicle and environment. Extended range of practical services in the new BMW 3 Series Saloon and in the new BMW 3 Series Touring. World premiere: use BMW ConnectedDrive to surf freely on the internet.

BMW was the first manufacturer in Europe to introduce a navigation system in 1994, making data outside the vehicle accessible to the driver. This was one of the foundation stones for the development of BMW ConnectedDrive. While in the past the interaction between the three areas of driver, vehicle and environment depended entirely on the adaptability of the individual, BMW ConnectedDrive shifts the burden clearly away from the driver by opening up innovative technical possibilities in the field of telematics. BMW ConnectedDrive links the car to the outside world and the situation on the road so as to provide the driver with as much as information as required and desired, as individually and as ergonomically as possible. A fundamental principle of the BMW ConnectedDrive concept is Warn rather than intervene: the driver always retains the responsibility for his vehicle. BMW ConnectedDrive connects the strengths of the driver with those of the technology. In concrete terms, this means that BMW ConnectedDrive offers the driver as much information and assistance as desired, according to the individual situation. What BMW ConnectedDrive has to offer: BMW Assist, BMW Online, BMW TeleServices and BMW Tracking. BMW ConnectedDrive is a dynamic concept in every way. The constant further development of services offers an increasingly high level of convenience in terms of mobility and information. Depending on the country concerned, BMW ConnectedDrive currently consists of the products BMW Assist, BMW Online, BMW TeleServices and BMW Tracking. BMW Assist: get to your destination faster, more reliably and more conveniently. (Description refers to the offer available in Germany. The portfolio of services may differ in other countries in which BMW Assist is available). The services available to the driver are emergency call with automatic position finding, extended traffic information, a comprehensive information service and the
BMW Media Information 7/2008 Page 37
interactive communication channel My Info incl. Send to Car functions services which support the driver during travel, at his current location or at his destination. The BMW ConnectedDrive remote function enable the doors to be locked and unlocked worldwide by telephone as well as vehicle positioning finding to the nearest metre. If the worst comes to the worst: emergency call with automatic position finding. The Enhanced Emergency Call offered by BMW ConnectedDrive provides the facility for rescue teams to receive detailed information on the type of collision and potential risk of injury even before they arrive at the site of the accident, enabling them to preparing the appropriate medical care for those involved in the accident well in advance. As of March 2008, data transmitted to the BMW Call Centre includes not only the exact position of the vehicle and the mobile phone number, vehicle type and vehicle colour but also the data collected by the vehicle sensors. The activation or non-activation of restraint systems fitted in the vehicle is registered as well as the occupation and belt status of the front seats. In addition, head-on, rear-on, side-on and even multiple collisions can be identified and differentiated. A vehicle roll-over can also be recorded and reported. In addition to automatic activation, the driver or front passenger can also activate the emergency call manually, with an immediate connection provided to the BMW Call Centre. The BMW emergency call has been able initiate rapid assistance in over 25,000 cases to date. Avoid tailbacks: quite simply with Traffic Info plus. Another service provided by BMW Assist is Traffic Info plus (V-Info+). V-Info+ gives the driver more up-to-date, more detailed and more comprehensive information on the current situation on long-distance roads than that provided by conventional radio traffic bulletins. The service forwards the relevant traffic bulletins and information such as automatically calculated tailback lengths and delay times to the navigation system, which in turn offers recommended detours. Just in case: the telephone information service. The telephone information service includes more than 35 million entries from the yellow pages and telephone directory. The BMW Assist information service also includes additional information such as restaurant ratings, emergency pharmacies, cinema listings, current flight information and the possibility of making hotel reservations. When the driver selects the menu item Information service, he is put through to the BMW Call Centre. At the same time, the vehicle automatically determines its own current position. In this way, the Call Centre staff member can identify information relevant to the position

Firstly, the stolen BMW can be quickly located, secondly Italian insurance companies offer a high premium reduction if a BMW Tracking Module is installed. A similar function entitled Stolen Vehicle Recovery is integrated as a separate service in BMW Assist in the USA and Canada. World premiere for unlimited use of the internet inside the vehicle. With ConnectedDrive, BMW is the first automobile manufacturer in the world to allow unlimited use of the internet in a stationary vehicle. Internet access in the new BMW 3 Series is available as an optional extra at attractive flat rate terms. The transfer of data is based on EDGE technology (Enhanced Data Rates for GSM Evolution), which unlike UMTS provides full geographical coverage and is three or four times faster than the mobile phone standard GPRS. The further developed iDrive provides the basis for internet use inside the vehicle. Here, the Controller is similar in function to a conventional computer mouse. Web pages can be displayed in high resolution. An additional function allows sections of the screen to be enlarged so as to highlight details. For safety reasons, web pages can only be displayed when the vehicle is stationary. For further details on the products of BMW Connected Drive see: www.bmw.com/connecteddrive.

The intelligent all-wheel drive system BMW xDrive: Variable, dynamic, supreme now also in the BMW 320d xDrive.
BMW as the worlds most successful provider of all-wheel drive vehicles in the premium segment. Intelligent all-wheel drive system BMW xDrive even more precise due to controlled brake intervention with torque compensation. BMW xDrive now available for five engine types new: BMW 320d xDrive.
BMW has established itself worldwide as the market leader for all-wheel drive vehicles in the premium segment. No other all-wheel drive system enhances driving dynamics, traction and stability like BMW xDrive. The outstanding quality of the electronically controlled and variable power distribution between front and rear wheels is impressively brought to bear in the vehicles fitted with BMW xDrive both on difficult terrain and on surfaced roads. The first BMW all-wheel model went on the market in 1985: a BMW 325iX. Since then BMW xDrive has continuously increased in importance in the model range of the BMW 3 Series. The all-wheel drive system is available for the Saloon and Touring models as well as the BMW 3 Series Coup. For the first time, the new BMW 3 Series now also offers the option of a 4-cylinder model fitted with the intelligent all-wheel drive system. The new BMW 320d xDrive combines outstanding efficiency with superior driving dynamics and traction qualities. For the Saloon, Touring and Coup models of the BMW 3 Series there are three petrol engines and two diesel engines available in combination with BMW xDrive. The models in question now bear the designations BMW 335i xDrive, BMW 330i xDrive, BMW 325i xDrive, BMW 330d xDrive and BMW 320d xDrive. BMW xDrive: variable, precise power distribution and fast response in every situation on the road. The electronically controlled, permanent all-wheel drive system BMW xDrive offers an incomparable degree of comfort, traction and agility over all road surfaces with its situation-based distribution of drive torque between the front and rear axles. BMW xDrive acquires its status as an intelligent all-wheel drive system from the fact that it always directs drive power to the axle whose wheels have the best contact with the road surface, by means of a transfer

about a significant increase in output: the range now went from 100 bhp in the BMW 316i to 193 bhp in the BMW 328i Coup. As a fifth body version alongside the Saloon, Coup, Touring and Convertible the BMW 3 Series compact was now introduced which for the first time offered an 87 bhp engine running on CNG gas in addition to petrol and diesel versions. The fourth generation: a firework display of innovations. In May 1998 the fourth BMW 3 Series was launched initially as a 4-door Saloon once again, with increased comfort, safety and performance. And it did so with a bang: the BMW 320d was the first BMW with a direct injection engine, overshadowing everything else in its category with an output of 100 kW/136 bhp, a top speed of 207 km/h and a fuel consumption of 5.7 litres. The other engine versions were equally groundbreaking: the basic model was the BMW 318i with 118 bhp, followed by the BMW 320i with 150 bhp and six cylinders, the BMW 323i with 170 bhp and finally the BMW 328 with 193 bhp. And these engines had many new features to offer: inside the 1.8-litre 4-cylinder engine there were two balancing shafts which improved the noise level inside the car by up to 10 dBA as compared to the predecessor model. The technologically most prominent measure in the 6-cylinder engines was the introduction of Double Vanos to provide a fuller torque curve and further reduce the level of pollutants in the exhaust gas. With the combination of rear-wheel drive, an ideal weight distribution of 50:50, the electronic regulation systems ABS, ASC+T and the dynamic stability control system DSC III, the chassis of the BMW 3 Series moved the benchmark up to a new level. A highlight in this package was the ITS head airbag, a tube-like structure hidden in the door frame next to the driver and front passenger ensuring significantly improved head protection over previous systems. But it was not only these spectacular new features which allowed the 3 Series to advance into regions otherwise reserved for the luxury performance segment. BMW also introduced the new Car Memory and Key Memory as standard features, as well as offering the multifunction steering wheel, rain sensor and Steptronic as optional extras. From autumn 1998 there followed integrated childrens seats, RDC, xenon light, on-board monitor with navigation system, TV and extended on-board computer. In addition to the Saloon, the highlights in the model range of the fourth generation were the new versions of the Coup, Touring, Convertible and compact, with the BMW 330d as a special highlight. With a rated torque of 390 Nm from 1,750 rpm, the 6-cylinder diesel was a sheer power package with extreme
