Understanding the BMW i Concept

[Edric1990]

BMW has launched the Project i, which aims at introducing a new breed of cars into the market. The new line of cars features a developed design, and the cars are said to be fuel-efficient and eco-friendly. The new line of cars will redefine the concept of mobility. The goal is to combine efficiency and dynamics. However, on the arrival of these vehicles, they are expected to be really expensive. In 2013, BMW is expected to release BMW i3 and BMW i8. And in 2015, it is said to release BMW i4 and BMW i5.

BMW continuously improves their vehicles, just like all the other automobile manufacturing companies do. BMW's Project i is currently designing lightweight cars with modern aerodynamic and fuel-efficient features. New automotive technologies are being developed to come up with high performance cars that are environmentally friendly. It seems as though that the quest of car companies to come up with fuel-efficient cars is a never-ending business. The fuel-efficient tagline will always be expected in the next generation of cars. In fact, today's new cars do boast lower fuel consumption for the same mileage than older cars.

BMW introduces the LifeDrive concept, which changes the architecture of future BMW cars. The new cars feature separate modules. One is the Drive Module, which is made of an aluminum frame that forms the solid structure of the automobile. The Drive module is where the battery and drive system can be found. The LifeDrive architecture incorporates the battery into the car's structure. The battery is the heaviest device in a car, and its placement affects the center of gravity of the car. A low center of gravity gives vehicles a good stability while on the road.

Bayerische Motoren Werke aka Bavarian Motor Works.

They're expensive because people buy them for the branding.

I'd further dissect quality to two things - fit and finish, as well as durability.

In terms of fit and finish, Germans are really a class above everyone else. The closest cheap Japs that could match the Germans would be the Mazda 2 and 3, but iba pa rin talaga.

Durability wise, these Germans are one-upped by the Japs. Perhaps it's because they don't design their cars for conditions as harsh as what we have in our tropical hell hole.

Still, I'm eyeing for a fresh E46 or E39 one of these days. Di bale nang money pit, masaya namang toy car. 😂
