BMW Vision EfficientDynamics - Concept Car On Display

The BMW Vision of future mobility is coming to New Zealand!

The star of the Australian Motor Show, the BMW Vision EfficientDynamics car, is coming to New Zealand for a special one-off appearance.

The BMW VisionED represents the future of BMW mobility and is confirmed to go into production in 2013, to be known as the BMW i8.

This ground-breaking model is a showcase of BMW technology and provides strong indications of drivetrain technology and the level of connectivity all future BMW models will feature.

The combination of a three-cylinder turbo-diesel with a hybrid synchronous motor at the front axle and a full hybrid engine at the rear axle enables a maximum power output for the system of 241kW.

This innovative technology allows the BMW VisionED to achieve 0–100km/h in just 4.8 seconds – extremely impressive for a car that also achieves 3.76 litres per 100 kilometres, and a CO2 emission rating of just 99 grams per kilometre.

Bringing the VisionED to New Zealand provides the rare opportunity to feature a model that exemplifies everything BMW represents, in terms of dedication to increasing efficiency and minimising emissions while never compromising performance.

The VisionED is proof that improving the efficiency and emissions of motor vehicles does not have to mean anything less than exhilaration and absolute driving pleasure – because creating the Ultimate Driving Machine will always sit at the heart of every car BMW produces.

Entry to the BMW VisionED display on level three in the roof-top Event Centre is free.
