BMW - 135i - Brochure - 2009 - 2009

2009 BMW 1 Series Convertible 128i 135i The Ultimate Driving Machine® Convertibles are made for the sun. This one is made for the billions of other stars too. You, the road, the sky. One. So intelligent, it controls the climate even when the top is down. BMW precision: The logical side of passion. The 1 Series Convertible: A great way to stay open to fresh ideas. This is how much has gone in. And this is what comes out. At BMW, we create dynamic vehicles that thrill you with quick acceleration, predictable handling and unshakable control. We are also busy finding ways to sustain this level of performance while incorporating innovative fuels and technologies to help preserve the environment. This is what we refer to as “EfficientDynamics.” This goal has led to the visionary CleanEnergy hydrogen-powered engine, which is currently used in the BMW Hydrogen 7 Sedan. BMW Advanced Diesel with BluePerformance, which offers diesel power with quick acceleration, increased fuel efficiency and reduced emissions, is being introduced to the U.S. in select models in 2009. In fact, every BMW on the road today comes standard with technology that boosts performance while simultaneously reducing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. Double-VANOS VANOS is BMW’s valve timing system that can “steplessly” vary the points in the combustion cycle when valves open and close. Double-VANOS refers to the fact that it operates on both the intake and exhaust camshafts. Electronically controlled in response to engine speed, load and temperature, VANOS reduces emissions, and enhances low- to mediumspeed torque, as well as fuel efficiency. Valvetronic Instead of using a traditional throttle, Valvetronic technology in the 128i lets the engine breathe more easily by varying the lift height of the valves to regulate air intake. The result: improved cold starts, smoother running, and a significant drop in fuel consumption. Using revolutionary technology such as this, BMW has improved its overall average fuel economy more than any other manufacturer. Efficient transmissions The 1 Series Convertible offers two 6-speed transmissions: a smooth-shifting manual, and an equally fuel-efficient STEPTRONIC automatic transmission. Lightweight construction Our engineers use lightweight aluminum throughout our vehicles – in the front section, for example, or for the suspension. BMW’s inline six-cylinder twin-turbo engine is all aluminum; the naturally aspirated inline six is an aluminum/magnesium composite – the lightest in its class. Taken together, these weight savings lead to lower fuel consumption and better axle load distribution for more agility – especially in curves. BMW models have low CO2 emissions today. But that’s just for starters. We’re carrying on our research in the quest to bring you greater driving pleasure, with fewer emissions and decreased fuel consumption. Twin-turbocharged engine Benefiting from BMW’s twin-turbocharging technology, the 300-hp 135i delivers quick acceleration without any “turbo-lag.” Fuel economy is strong, as well, thanks to precise piezo direct fuel injection. BMW EfficientDynamics Less consumption. More exhilaration. Recommended color combinations Interior colors Leatherette1 Boston Leather 2 Taupe Black Savanna Beige/Black Taupe Gray Coral Red/Black Black 300 Alpine White Non-metallic1 pdr pdr pr pdr pr pdr pr A61 Crimson Red Non-metallic1 pdr pdr pr pdr pr 668 Jet Black Non-metallic1 pdr pdr pr p pr pdr pdr pr pdr pr pdr pdr pr pr Upholstery colors Exterior colors 354 Titanium Silver Metallic 3 A72 Cashmere Silver Metallic 3 A52 Space Gray Metallic 3 pr pdr pdr pdr pr pr pdr pr pr A35 Monaco Blue Metallic 3 pdr pdr pr pdr pr pdr A51 Montego Blue Metallic 3 pdr pdr pr pdr pr pdr 896 Blue Water Metallic 3 pdr pdr pr pdr pr pdr 475 Black Sapphire Metallic 3 pdr pdr pr pdr pr Interior trims 4AS Gray Poplar Wood4 4A3 Light Burl Walnut Wood5 4AT High-Gloss Black6 1 Standard. 2 Optional, and included in optional Premium Package. 3 Metallic exterior paint: Optional. 4 Standard in 135i; optional in 128i and available as a no-cost choice in optional 128i Premium Package. 5 Available as a no-cost option in 135i; optional in 128i and available as a no-cost choice in optional 128i Premium Package. 6 Standard in 128i; available as a no-cost option in 135i.

The dynamic auto-leveling feature adjusts for varying passenger and cargo loads, helping to keep headlight glare out of the eyes of oncoming drivers. BMW Adaptive Headlights provide optimum road illumination around corners, thanks to an electromechanical control system that directs the headlights into and around the bend as soon as the vehicle begins cornering. The Corona headlight-rings that circle both headlights and high beams also act separately as Daytime Running Lights and parking lights. (std. on 135i; opt. on 128i) s Foglights integrated into the deep front spoiler of the 128i enhance your margin of safety in bad visibility. The halogen free-form technology ensures even light distribution on the road.

BMW is a strong proponent of the environment and social responsibility. It is important to manage the earth’s resources responsibly, and not jeopardize the needs of future generations. That is why BMW makes vehicles that minimize adverse environmental impact, from production (pollution prevention and waste minimization at the plant) through owner use (low emissions) to eventual disposal (easy drainability of all fluid-related components and easy neutralization of all pyrotechnic devices). This effort has been recognized worldwide and, as a result, we are pleased to have received numerous environmental honors. In the U.S., for example, the Environmental Protection Agency accepted BMW’s Spartanburg, SC production and manufacturing facility as a charter member of the agency’s National Environmental Performance Track. Internationally, BMW AG – the parent company of both BMW of North America and BMW Manufacturing Co., Spartanburg, SC – was the first automotive company to be represented on the Dow Jones Sustainability Group Index, and has remained on the Index ever since. At BMW, we strive for high performance in everything we do. U.S. Importer: BMW of North America, LLC, Woodcliff Lake, NJ 07677.
