The Vision Exterior design Interior design Dynamics BMW M8 GTE Dynamics BMW M850i xDrive Let’s talk about courage, and why we need it more than ever. Courage is independent and disruptive. Courage questions, shatters and awakens. We need bold, courageous voices. All of us. We need fresh thinkers with optimism. Daring dreamers who don’t accept “No” for an answer. We believe in the frontrunners. The intellectual elite, the avantgarde. Those who fight stagnation and backwardness. Well, courage only knows forward. Driving the pioneers of our culture to inspire tomorrow. To create a sublime kind of new. Reaching a superior level of excellence. This is where a new kind of luxury is born, in brave ideas, in the confidence to speak out loud. Even if nobody asks for it. EVERY DAY WE EXPERIENCE PROGRESS. THE FUTURE. YET WE FEEL THAT WE HAVE SEEN IT ALL BEFORE. NOW AND THEN THOUGH, SOMETHING SURPRISES US. AND TOUCHES US. POWER IS A PHYSICAL QUANTITY: ONLY WHEN YOU CULTIVATE IT, YOU CAN ADD A DIMENSION TO IT. PURSUING HAPPINESS, SEARCHING FOR LOVE, CELEBRATING SUCCESSES, DEALING WITH SETBACKS, GOING FOR THE BEST, OPTIMISING, BRINGING TO PERFECTION – LETTING GO. WE LIVE IN A TIME THAT IS ALL ABOUT SPEED, ABOUT MILLISECONDS. A TIME THAT IS RUNNING AWAY IF YOU ARE NOT CLOSE ON ITS HEELS. UNLESS YOU SIMPLY OVERTAKE IT. WHOEVER ONLY FOLLOWS TRACES, REACHES PLACES WHERE MANY OTHERS HAVE BEEN ALREADY. IT IS ABOUT TIME TO LEAVE NEW TRACES. YOUR DESTINATION MAY BE A LINE, A PLACE, A PERSON, THE ROAD. AND SOMETIMES YOU WILL ONLY KNOW WHEN YOU HAVE ARRIVED. THE VISION 2 “LUXURY MUST AROUSE EMOTIONS.” Searching and finding modern perfection: Adrian van Hooydonk, chief designer at the BMW Group, on the new appearance in the segment of the most exclusive vehicles. The models under the name Bayerische Motoren Werke open up a new world within the BMW portfolio. What is your idea of contemporary luxury? We do not want to tell our customers how they should define luxury for themselves, but just want to make an attractive, diverse offer. The perception of luxury is very different worldwide. But a central aspect that becomes visible everywhere is the increasing significance of personal time. It is becoming the most valuable asset in a globalised world. How is the wish for perfection and refinement expressed in mobility? In today’s mobile world, we spend more and more time in various modes of transport. Cars are now like personal rooms on wheels. One wants to feel completely comfortable in them. A steering wheel that you touch, the materials that surround you have to feel perfect and the eye does not want to be disturbed by unclean lines or individual components. The interior of a vehicle is seen as a living space. It is about being surrounded by the highest possible sensuous quality. What is the biggest challenge in the external appearance? Luxury must be reflected to the outside world in a matter-of-fact way. In English there is a beautiful term for it: sophistication. For designers – our team has more than 700 employees at four locations worldwide, who are encouraged through constant competition with each other in terms of ideas – this means that every detail counts. The design has to arouse strong emotions while expressing the highest quality and durability at the same time. In order to be able to spend every moment intensely, full of meaning and beauty. Therefore, we are building a luxury ecosystem, a model family. In various forms of expression: contemporary saloons, elegant and very sporty coupés, but also vehicles that offer very luxurious space. In the new designs, a common factor is noticeable: the reduction of lines. Do you want to increase luxury by making luxury less apparent in the design? In this way, the design becomes clearer, more modern and more emotional. An expressive surface play is in the foreground, and the dynamics are emphasised even more than before by the vehicle body. The few but very precise vehicle lines underline the graphic design of the surfaces. The vehicle body looks more powerful, refined and luscious with the lavish surfaces without losing the sportiness that is typical to BMW. This is possible only because we work out every feature of a vehicle individually. For a BMW, one should be able to identify at first glance what kind of experience one would have with it. Especially in our large and particularly luxurious vehicles, we attach great importance to a marked appearance and the maximum possible feel-good factor in the interior. It’s about freedom – and the feeling of being at home in a BMW. EXTERIOR DESIGN 24 25 CLEAR LINES. The generously curved and muscular surfaces give the BMW 8 Series Coupé a particularly confident sportiness. The BMW designers have succeeded in reducing the number of lines along the bodywork to a radical minimum, thus emphasising the expressiveness of the surfaces to the maximum – the basis for a completely new silhouette in contemporary automotive design. Many surfaces, such as the gently raised flanks behind the air vents of the front wheel arches, have hitherto been unseen in such an expressive form in automotive design. The BMW 8 Series Coupé establishes a completely new design language for luxury sports cars – an overview of the most important design innovations. POWERFUL PROPORTIONS. Just right for a BMW sports car of the highest performance class: the sporty-powerful proportions. Deep, wide and ready to leap, the flat body ducks over the asphalt. Voluminous rear wheel arches emphasise a low centre of gravity and the classic rear-wheel drive. The flowing silhouette in conjunction with the gently curved surfaces thus signal an effortless and natural urge to move forward. ADVANCED HALLMARKS. WIDE REAR LIGHTS IN THE BMW TYPICAL FORM OF AN L UNDERSCORE THE STRONG SHOULDERS OF THE NEW BMW 8 SERIES COUPÉ. PERFECTED DETAILS. Other subtle details such as the minimalist and floating light side mirrors or the double-arched roof in the style of classic racing cars complete the harmonious overall impression of the BMW 8 Series Coupé, which, despite its restrained form and unobtrusive luxury, awakens the viewer’s emotionalism typical of a BMW sports car. The BMW designers interpreted well-known BMW design elements such as the BMW kidney grille, the rear lights in the shape of an L or the typical kink in the graphics of the rear windows in a highly modern way. For example, the forward leaning BMW kidney grille in the shape of a shark nose refers to iconic BMW racing cars such as the BMW 507 or BMW 3.0 CSL. The particularly delicate and wide rear lights featured in the BMW 8 Series Coupé emphasise the powerful shoulders as well as the powerful rear end. DESIGN AND HIGHLIGHTS – EXTERIOR DESIGN IN THE FORM OF LIFE. 26 INTERIOR DESIGN 27 DESIGN AND HIGHLIGHTS – INTERIOR DESIGN THE LUXURY TO BE SPORTY. The new BMW 8 Series Coupé is also irresistibly luxurious in the interior – and at the same time inimitably sporty: Noble materials and elaborate workmanship create a maximally exclusive ambience. At the same time, however, the design of the new BMW 8 Series Coupé is thoroughly dynamic in keeping with its character: The intentional longitudinal orientation of the interior allows all lines to thrust forward, and the BMW typical, consistent driver orientation helps to keep the driver in control of everything at all times. Get in and experience the feeling of the racetrack, elegantly interpreted. INTERIOR TRIM FINISHERS IN STAINLESS STEEL FABRIC SET DYNAMIC HIGHLIGHTS IN THE INTERIOR WITH A TECHNICAL TOUCH. INSPIRED BY THE CIRCUIT – THE INTERIOR OF THE NEW BMW 8 SERIES COUPÉ IS DYNAMIC TO THE LAST DETAIL. In the BMW 8 Series Coupé, all the lines point forward from the driver’s point of view and manifest the feeling of unrestrained forward thrust. Typically for a sports car, the centre console is wide and steeply rising. Here, all relevant functions are clearly summarised, so that the driver enjoys full control in every driving situation. In addition, the clearly structured layout creates space for the luxurious effect of the high-quality materials and spacious surfaces. IN THE BMW INDIVIDUAL EXTENDED LEATHER TRIM ‘MERINO’ TARTUFO WITH STRIKING CONTRAST STITCHING, EVEN THE SEATS ATTRACT ATTENTION. TWO WORLDS, NO COMPROMISES: THE NEW BMW 8 SERIES COUPÉ COMBINES SPORTINESS WITH ABSOLUTE LUXURY. IRRESISTIBLY LUXURIOUS – AND INIMITABLY SPORTY AT THE SAME TIME. From classic-sporty to modern-elegant: Even the interior has a unique luxurious atmosphere. Starting with the basic equipment, the instrument panel and door panel are covered in leather and provided with contrast stitching. Seats in leather ‘Vernasca’1, BMW Individual leather ‘Merino’ with extended contents2 or even BMW Individual full leather trim ‘Merino’3 emphasise the individual claim of the interior. Design elements such as the flowing transitions between the instrument panel and the doors create an all-round exclusive design experience that equally surrounds drivers and passengers on all sides. The hand-crafted glass applications 4 are an experience for the hands and the eyes: They set high-quality highlights on selected control elements such as the gear selector, the Start-Stop button, the iDrive Controller or the volume control, which further add to the already noble ambience. 1 2 3 4 Standard for 840d xDrive. Standard for BMW M850i xDrive. Equipment optionally available from 03/2019. Available as optional equipment. SPARKLING EXCLUSIVITY: THE GLASS APPLICATIONS ‘CRAFTED CLARITY’ ARE MANUFACTURED BY HAND AND EMBELLISH SELECTED ELEMENTS IN THE INTERIOR. DYNAMICS BMW M8 GTE DYNAMICS BMW M8 GTE 28 29 DESIGN AND HIGHLIGHTS – DYNAMICS BMW M8 GTE NO COMPROMISES. Respect. That’s what I feel when I see the BMW M8 GTE. The new BMW kidney grille, the rear end with wide wheelbase, the wheel arches and air outlets, and the overall aerodynamics radiate an intensity that shows every competitor what it’s about on the racetrack: Respect. Actually, tuning and engine power are the most important features of a vehicle for a professional racer. But these strengths must also be visible at first glance. In this regard, the BMW M8 GTE is the most consistent racing car BMW has ever built. And this presence is immediately apparent in the production model. The elongated bonnet and the proportions of the rear wheels immediately reveal the genes of a sports car – the sides of the production model are ultimately only 100 millimetres narrower than those of the BMW M8 GTE. The development of a new racing car takes several years. As a driver you are involved, test, give feedback. And the experts work on the details, such as the shape of the exterior mirrors, which is based on the famous M hooks of the BMW M models and improves the flow on the sides of the vehicle. I was honoured to be the first to drive the new BMW M8 GTE on the racetrack after its development. An emotional moment – and from the first moment a perfect interaction. This wow effect was there in the production model immediately, you feel immediately embraced by the vehicle. You do not just sit in it and drive, you become a unit. Everything feels ergonomic. The structure of the cockpit, the settings on the steering wheel all show that no compromises are made when it comes to driver orientation. I feel the same absolute confidence that is so essential on the racetrack. When nothing should distract you, especially in a 24-hour race like Le Mans, when you have to go through the programme without a hitch. Hour after hour, lap after lap, to be fully there in the finale. Show strength when it’s about everything – and show the competitors a very special new design detail of the new BMW 8 Series: the characteristically slim line of rear lights. Martin Tomczyk. The racing driver and long-distance specialist was closely involved in the development of the BMW M8 GTE. No other pilot has covered so many kilometres in the new BMW M8 GTE. THE 19" M SPORT BRAKE IMPRESSES WITH THE MOST PRECISE DOSING AND HIGHEST BRAKING PERFORMANCE – EVEN UNDER THE TOUGHEST LOAD. DYNAMICS BMW M850i xDRIVE 30 DYNAMICS BMW M850i xDRIVE 31 The racing genes of the new BMW M850i xDrive Coupé are noticeable in every driving situation. The high body rigidity and the reinforced suspension components ensure direct implementation of every steering command. The specially-tuned BMW xDrive four-wheel drive and the controlled M Sport differential provide maximum traction when accelerating out of corners – with an agility that was previously reserved only for rear-wheel drive vehicles. The 19" M Sport brake impresses with the most precise dosing and highest braking performance – even under the toughest load. Maximum lateral forces are counteracted by the wheels with standard sport mixed tyres. Integral Active Steering guarantees perfect steering and maximum speed confidence in every speed range. As standard, the new BMW 8 Series Coupé comes with the Adaptive M suspension. It provides optimum road holding on all surfaces and allows the driver to choose between particularly sporty or comfortable suspension tuning. Welcome to a new dimension of performance! 390 kW (530 hp) output 3.7 s 0 to 100 km/h HIGH PRECISION INJECTION WITH UP TO 350 BAR, DOUBLE-VANOS AND VALVETRONIC SET STANDARDS IN PERFORMANCE AND EFFICIENCY. 4,395 cm3 AT HOME NEAR THE LIMITS: THE NEW BMW M850i xDRIVE COUPÉ. CONFIDENT THROUGH EVERY CURVE – AT ANY SPEED: ADAPTIVE M SUSPENSION PROFESSIONAL. A push on the gas pedal – and the TwinPower Turbo 8-cylinder petrol engine with 4.4 litre capacity resolutely attacks every metre of asphalt. Its superior revving power drives up the driver’s pulse when it approaches the tangible limit with precise dosing: Two Twin-Scroll exhaust gas turbochargers, cylinder liners with special coating and a cooling package designed for maximum performance with two repositioned coolers, an upstream radiator and a 1,000-watt fan are only found in racing sports cars. On request, the Sport exhaust system emphasises the load changes of the V8 engine with a strong character, but at the push of a button it also has a finely subdued tone – depending on the selected mode. Highly agile, surprisingly comfortable: The Adaptive M suspension Professional1 combines typical dynamics with smoothness and stability. The electromechanical body roll stabilisation reduces the lateral inclination on the curves and thus enables very high cornering speeds. Depending on the situation, it chooses a stabilising or agile driving behaviour. Thus, the driver can enjoy the fullest control and responsive handling even with fast cornering or quick changes of direction. 1 Equipment exclusively available for BMW M850i xDrive. Capacity 750 Nm Torque SUPERIOR ENGINEERING: THE BMW TWIN POWER TURBO V8 PETROL ENGINE FORMS THE POWERFUL HEART OF THE BMW M850i xDRIVE.
