BMW seems to have a fine tradition every year, not to seek major changes, only to "fine-tune", but it is the small adjustments of each year that make this car more balanced, and continue to seduce the wave of Bimmers who are still holding coins to buy.
Recently, some foreign media said that BMW's many models have been upgraded to varying degrees, many of which have just launched a new generation of BMW 2 Series and BMW 4 Series, which have been greatly optimized and improved in hardware. Let's take a look at the specific changes!
PS: All are european markets
For those fans who seek pure driving fun, it is extremely exciting to hear that the BMW 2 Series has been upgraded, after all, its body size and wheelbase are just right.
The new BMW 2 Series is equipped with a more powerful 2.0T engine, the maximum power is adjusted to 180kW, matched by the 8AT transmission, zero hundred acceleration only takes 5.9 seconds. What's more worth mentioning is that the official also provides optional assembly of the differential in the M department, which becomes more sporty.
The BMW 2 Series Active Tourer version has also been well improved, but this model is not optimized in the direction of movement, after all, it is a multi-functional car.
Therefore, just adding a 48V light mix and xDrive all-wheel drive system can further improve fuel economy and good passability. But don't think it seems to be very homely, its 100 km/h acceleration can still be completed in 6.9 seconds, which is already a very good result.
BMW 4 Series, mainly with the addition of xDrive all-wheel drive system, the power remains unchanged, still equipped with a 2.0T engine, matched with the 8AT gearbox.
For operations like the BMW 4 tie-in four-wheel drive system, it feels like a reflection of negative optimization. After all, the original new generation of BMW 4 Series is already a lot heavier than the old model, and the power is not too good, so it will be weakened in terms of transmission efficiency if it is brought into the four-wheel drive system without optimizing the engine power.
BMW iX, as BMW's current top pure electric SUV, its every move is likely to affect the direction of pure electric products launched by BMW under the pure electric platform.
Therefore, every optimization seems to be particularly careful. This time, it is mainly to add a more professional automatic parking function, which can reserve a variety of complex parking actions, each action span within 200 meters, and the fault tolerance rate has been greatly improved!
BMW's update has effectively improved the performance and handling of some models, especially the new generation of BMW 2 Series, while the optional space has become more and more user-friendly. However, some models, such as the BMW 4 Series adding the xDrive four-wheel drive system and the BMW iX adding more advanced automatic parking and other functions, can only be regarded as a small upgrade that is not painful...
