Figures in [ ] apply to vehicles with M Double Clutch Transmission with Drivelogic.
1Figures quoted include a 90% tank filling, 68 kg for the driver and 7 kg for luggage. Unladen
weight applies to vehicles with standard specification. Optional equipment may increase this
figure.
2The petrol engine is designed for RON 98 fuel. It may be run on RON 95 fuel, with a decrease
in power.
3The 8-cylinder V engine meets the EU5 emissions standard. Fuel consumption is determined
in accordance with the ECE driving cycle, specified by RL 80/1268/EC. This is made up of
approximately one third urban and two thirds extra-urban driving (based on the distance
covered). CO2emissions are measured in addition to fuel consumption. Fuel consumption
figures are based on vehicles with standard equipment. Optional equipment (such as broader
tyres) can have a significant impact on fuel consumption.
4Electronically limited.
Optional extras are available fully installed straight from the factory. For additional extras see
the extensive catalogue of accessories available at your BMW partner. BMW Individual will be
happy to help should you wish your BMW to include features not listed here. To find a package
that perfectly suits what you have in mind, simply contact your BMW partner for assistance.
