THE BEST FOUNDATION FOR DYNAMIC PERFORMANCE:
A SUPERIOR CHASSIS.
The BMW  Series Sedan can be equipped with a whole host of innovative technologies to help you get the most out of each drive.
Many of these systems are intelligently networked with each other, maximizing your active safety quotient – and your driving pleasure.
Integral Active Steering, in rear-wheel-
drive vehicles, delivers more direct response
with a small turn of the steering wheel at
speeds of up to  mph. This feature also
steers the rear wheels up to . degrees in
the oppo site direction, giving the effect of a
shortened wheelbase for enhanced maneu-
verability. When changing lanes at speeds over
 mph, both front and rear wheels turn in the
same direction, giving the feel of an extended
wheelbase.
With Driving Dynamics Control including
ECO PRO mode you can adjust the driving
characteristics of the BMW  Series by simply
pressing a button. To change engine-throttle
response, transmis sion shift characteristics
and power-steering assist, choose from fi ve
settings:
COMFORT, COMFORT+, SPORT, SPORT+
or ECO PRO mode. In addition, the traction
control feature can be disengaged when driv-
ing on sand, gravel, or deep or packed snow.
Adaptive Drive combines two active chassis
control systems, Active Roll Stabilization and
Dynamic Damper Control. Adaptive Drive
minimizes the tendency of the body to roll,
enhancing passenger ride comfort and vehicle
agility during sporty driving maneuvers. In
constant operation while the vehicle is in
motion, it includes Dynamic Drive, an active
chassis control system that uses active
stabilizers on front and rear axles to counteract
body roll when cornering, especially at higher
speeds. This helps ensure precise steering and
balanced reactions to load changes. Ride-
enhancing Dynamic Damper Control instantly
adjusts shock absorbers from the softest to
the fi rmest settings. The result is exceptional
ride comfort and fl uid handling at all times –
during changes in vehicle speed, load, or road
and driving conditions.
-speed Sport Automatic transmission
adjusts to your style – from comfortable
cruising to very dynamic driving. To change
gears, you can use the selector lever or
steering wheel-mounted gear shift paddles.
In Sport mode, modifi ed clutch settings allow
very quick adjustments in engine speed, for
minimal shift times. The close spacing of the
eight gears optimizes acceleration, while also
maximizing ef ciency and comfortable shifting.
Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) helps to
stabilize the BMW  Series Sedan in just milli-
seconds when it senses an impending skid.
Whenever the system senses over- or under-
steer, it modulates engine power and can apply
brakes indi vidually to each wheel to help keep
the vehicle under control and going in the
intended direction. For sportier driving or in
deep snow,
Dynamic Traction Control (DTC)
allows increased wheelslip.
In the event of a collision, the  Series Sedan’s
passive safety system determines which of
six airbags to deploy for optimal protection. An
extremely rigid steel “safety cage” surrounds
the cabin, with deformable crush tubes front
and rear. In a severe crash, impact energy is
routed around the cabin and absorbed
by the
safety cage. In a severe side
impact, a reinforc-
ing bar hooks the door to the body, locking
them together to make a more rigid pas senger
cell. When the pressure is released, the system
is then designed to snap back so that the doors
can open.
