New BMW 1 Series Features

The new BMW 1 Series is the first model which features the new BMW Lines, which provides a range of personalisation possibilities including equipment options, interior colour schemes and materials and exterior equipment.

Revisions have been made to provide a better balance between sportiness and driving comfort and driver assistance systems normally associated with high segment cars.

At 4,324mm, the body of the new BMW 1 Series is 85mm longer than the model it replaces, with a 30mm wider wheelbase, taking it to 2,690mm. Overall width is now 1,765mm, and increase of 177mm. This relates to rear passengers benefiting from 21mm extra legroom and 30 litres more luggage space at 360 litres.

Standard-fit BMW EfficientDynamics technologies include Brake Energy Regeneration and electromechanical servo-assisted steering plus, depending on the model, an Optimum Shift Indicator, a self-disconnecting air-conditioning compressor and tyres with reduced rolling resistance. Automatic Start/Stop features in both manual and automatic transmissions. The driving experience switch allows for an ECO PRO mode designed to allow for a more economical driving style.

An optional eight speed automatic transmission is available as an option, with the BMW 1 Series being the only car in the segment to offer this.

With the optional navigation system and BMW Professional Radio, the new BMW 1 Series also comes with BMW iDrive system, comprising a controller on the centre console, favourite buttons and a freestanding flatscreen monitor.

Alongside the standard-fit DSC (Dynamic Stability Control), ABS (anti-lock braking system), DTC (Dynamic Traction Control), CBC (Cornering Brake Control) and DBC (Dynamic Braking Control) are braking assistance, fading compensation, brake drying, hill assist, and, an electronic rear axle differential locking system - when in DSC Off mode.

Remote-controlled central locking, electric exterior mirrors, electric front and rear windows, BMW Business Radio/CD player (with 6 speakers and AUX IN connection), and air conditioning are all standard features.

Available options for the BMW ConnectedDrive programme include Adaptive Headlights (in conjunction with the xenon headlights option), a rain sensor with automatic driving lights, high-beam assistance, Park Distance Control, rear view camera, Park Assistant, cruise control with braking function, Lane Departure Warning with Collision Warning, and Speed Limit Info, which, for the first time, also registers signs which prohibit overtaking.

Tips on Improving Your BMW Car Audio | Servidormitra

Okay…you own the “Ultimate Driving Machine,” and even though you may not speak German, you have a pretty good idea of what freude im fahren is. The right BMW car audio can only add to that “Joy In Driving” of course – and the right BMW car audio deserves only the best BMW speakers.

The BMW car audio system is already pretty impressive, but a good thing can always be made better – particularly if your BMW is an older, yet still serviceable model built before the advent of such wonders as the iPod or satellite radio.

In fact, just having the right BMW speakers can be the difference between BMW car audio that is merely “great” and that which is – as the Germans would say – ausgescheisnet!! (the word ausgescheisnet has no direct English translation, but is several degrees beyond wunderbar.)

If you are thinking a upgrading your BMW speakers, you will probably want to go with coaxial speakers, as these are easier to install and include their own drivers and crossovers. These BMW speakers are suitable for most audiophiles, but if your tastes run less toward Muddy Waters or Bruce Springsteen and more toward the the New York Philharmonic or St. Martin-In-The-Fields Academy Orchestra, separates will provide the best sound quality when it comes to those ultra-high violins and piccolos and deep, rumbling contrabasses and tubas.

If you really want to take your BMW car audio to the next level however, consider installing horns. These type of BMW speakers are expensive, and you may need to install an equalizer – but they are second-to-none when it comes to picking up mid-to-high range frequencies.

For those who want to separate the vocals or solo lines from the ensemble, center channel speakers are a good choice. These are specialized BMW speakers that can be installed virtually anywhere in the vehicle; their main function is to bring solo, vocal and melody lines to the forward part of the cabin.
