Optimized aerodynamic details result in a low Cd of just 0.29 for the 228i Coupe.<br /><br />• Engines with BMW TwinPower Turbo technology deliver segment-leading figures in terms of both sporting ability and efficiency. The BMW 228i Coupe is the first sub- compact BMW model to be powered by the 240 hp version of the 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine. The range-topping, the BMW M235i, is the most powerful gasoline-driven BMW M Performance Automobile.

The tradition took hold in the US 45 years ago with the introduction of the vaunted BMW 2002. The BMW 1 Series Coupe has fulfilled this role since 2008, its standout position among its rivals rooted most prominently in its rear-wheel-drive concept (still a unique proposition in this class), powerful engines with BMW TwinPower Turbo technology and a compelling premium character. The BMW 2 Series Coupe now takes the levels of driving pleasure in a sub-compact coupe to even greater heights. The new two-door cuts a impressive figure with its distinctive body design, a choice of two powerful engines and specially configured chassis technology.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">There is clear differentiation between the BMW 2 Series Coupe and the current 1 Series with the new model assuming a character all its own. This differentiation is immediately recognizable in the design of the new car, but it also makes its presence felt in terms of performance. The BMW 2 Series Coupe is an even more eye-catching creation than its predecessor, the successful BMW 1 Series Coupe. As well as a standalone appearance and increased dimensions, there is also greater depth to its product substance in terms of both technology and standard equipment. The result is a new dimension in driving dynamics, aesthetic appeal and premium allure in the sub-compact segment, highlighted by the “2” in the new car’s model designation. The number 2 has denoted the presence of a sporting driving experience in a sub-compact two-door car for 45 years – ever since the introduction of the BMW 2002.</span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRT0wED0QSHF0wX9CMRqm6YdpVSXfuwgTdyuMvmDUSK4vg8UOiKfTeiqgU_EqyP_mGiyLsV0f2WURWwEZOsxIq6F-7lIrAVHFQay2XZyZBo53qXIjy7Cuz0BsXSwECXU8IAQgSUCZe7QW9/s1600/P90137589-highRes.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="425" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRT0wED0QSHF0wX9CMRqm6YdpVSXfuwgTdyuMvmDUSK4vg8UOiKfTeiqgU_EqyP_mGiyLsV0f2WURWwEZOsxIq6F-7lIrAVHFQay2XZyZBo53qXIjy7Cuz0BsXSwECXU8IAQgSUCZe7QW9/s640/P90137589-highRes.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><b>Characteristic features of a BMW Coupe.</b></span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The specific vehicle concept behind the BMW 2 Series Coupe – unique in its segment – is faithfully reflected in its body design. The two-door model is first and foremost a BMW Coupe, and the design features that identify a member of this special breed – a three-box body with clearly defined trunk and low-slung silhouette, a long hood, doors with frameless windows and a dynamically stretched roofline flowing smoothly into the tail – are carried over into a sub-compact model with greater enthusiasm and intent than ever. The ultra- sporty driving characteristics of the BMW 2 Series Coupe – thanks to a choice of two powerful engines and chassis technology tuned to make the perfect pairing – are thus expressed in the design of the exterior. The 240 hp N20 TwinPower Turbo 2.0-liter four- cylinder engine in the BMW 228i Coupe makes its debut in a sub-compact BMW model, and the 322 hp inline six-cylinder engine under the hood of the BMW M235i Coupe earns it top billing as the most powerful gasoline-powered member of the BMW M Performance Automobile line-up.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The specific proportions of the BMW 2 Series Coupe are contained within a body measuring 174.5 inches (4,432 mm) in length. The two-door model is therefore 2.8 inches (72 mm) longer than the outgoing BMW 1 Series Coupe. The new sub-compact Coupe is also 1.3 inches (32 mm) wider than its predecessor at 69.8 inches (1,774 mm), and has a 1.3 inch (30-mm) longer wheelbase (105.9 inches/2,690 mm) and wider tracks (front: 59.9 inches/1,521 mm, + 1.6 inches/41 mm; rear: 61.3 inches/1,556 mm, +1.7 inches/43 mm). At the same time the vehicle height has been lowered by 0.2 inches (5 mm) to 55.8 inches (1,418 mm). The result is an increase in interior space and 0.7 cu.ft. (20 liters) of additional luggage capacity (now 13.8 cu.ft./390 liters, based on EU measures). The BMW 2 Series Coupe also boasts more efficient aerodynamics than both the BMW 1 Series and its predecessor, as reflected in a Cd of 0.29 for the BMW 228i Coupe.</span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiD2tYugndoYvZMXzuUlhOeaZwmu04hqrcXdeinhax3zmsEdXRDgy3ydIy4y2CGFdZ70Tt-3rOfe6O2bOIloTpYuH2N3GHvEShEmn2w51u5-Ugano_Ar-NWLpF85lLTVuqmdO_s5Ke9r38M/s1600/P90137587-highRes.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiD2tYugndoYvZMXzuUlhOeaZwmu04hqrcXdeinhax3zmsEdXRDgy3ydIy4y2CGFdZ70Tt-3rOfe6O2bOIloTpYuH2N3GHvEShEmn2w51u5-Ugano_Ar-NWLpF85lLTVuqmdO_s5Ke9r38M/s640/P90137587-highRes.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><b>Sporting tradition on a sub-compact footprint.</b></span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The BMW 2 Series Coupe builds on the brand’s tradition of sub-compact models offering a satisfying degree of driver engagement. And the presence of the 2 in the model designation creates a close link to this heritage. The introduction in 1968 of the BMW 2002, for instance, opened up a whole new vehicle segment in the US. Inspired by its precisely tailored package of powertrain and chassis technology, the two-door Coupe became a standard-bearer for sporty handling and intense driving pleasure in the sub-compact car segment. The BMW 2002 took center stage – in terms of both its popularity and its success in acting as the first building block in the foundation of what is now widely known as The Ultimate Driving Machine. The most spectacular version was the 170 hp BMW 2002 turbo – the first turbocharged model from a European manufacturer.</span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJb2UaFePLNg6HAlZuWJ-dP0yl0usAuTEZHwIFKkxbAdHH155yCmS-2myHarmiUYJMX94iaFqH78M_58PbFmeERi6BnEQQM9verNWW3PMpJyYLkPc_Osv3uML3_xlFw2pCkWPUttKGkjnL/s1600/2014-BMW-2-Series-Coupe-14%255B2%255D.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="384" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJb2UaFePLNg6HAlZuWJ-dP0yl0usAuTEZHwIFKkxbAdHH155yCmS-2myHarmiUYJMX94iaFqH78M_58PbFmeERi6BnEQQM9verNWW3PMpJyYLkPc_Osv3uML3_xlFw2pCkWPUttKGkjnL/s640/2014-BMW-2-Series-Coupe-14%255B2%255D.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><b>The design:</b></span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><b>Strong character cuts a distinctive figure.</b></span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">• Typical Coupe proportions, dynamic lines, powerful forms.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">• Bespoke front and rear detailing accentuates its sporting profile.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">• Optional Sport Line and M Sport create scope for individualization.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">A beguiling blend of sporting prowess and elegance marks out the design of BMW Coupes. And the exterior features which are such a key element of this identity have been carried over to the sub-compact segment car with greater purpose than ever for the BMW 2 Series Coupe. The proportions, lines and surface design of the car have all been tailored to accentuate both the agile driving properties of the two-door and its unique appearance. The BMW 2 Series Coupe has its own specific design language, which secures it a stand-out position in the brand’s model range and – most importantly – sets it apart unmistakably from its segment rivals.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Sporting presence, muscular agility and assured elegance come together in the exterior design of the BMW 2 Series Coupe. Defining elements of its interior, meanwhile, include the driver-focused cockpit design you expect of a BMW and a light and contemporary brand of functionality. The car’s more clearly distinguished design identity illustrates its progress in moving the game on from its predecessor. The BMW 2 Series Coupe reflects The Ultimate Driving in more concentrated and intense form than ever before in the premium sub-compact segment.</span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfSP0WF0k3VrbQStXXewEPy6XMWXQLiGmBcPJLGPFXfhcxA-cuCH07sJpw-09JcaNScQ_bi7KbUWsMVsPv7EU7vkfDL37gDsG4kjfyMzMOQ3goQdnPrLLIBx2Bv7Ql5toOrwTGINM5U2Pw/s1600/P90137586-highRes.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfSP0WF0k3VrbQStXXewEPy6XMWXQLiGmBcPJLGPFXfhcxA-cuCH07sJpw-09JcaNScQ_bi7KbUWsMVsPv7EU7vkfDL37gDsG4kjfyMzMOQ3goQdnPrLLIBx2Bv7Ql5toOrwTGINM5U2Pw/s640/P90137586-highRes.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><b>Classic BMW features in a fresh take on the traditional Coupe.</b></span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The individual vehicle concept of the BMW 2 Series Coupe is underlined by its specific front and rear end design, dynamically stretched lines and an almost 4.3 inch (110 mm) increase in body length over the BMW 1 Series. Characteristic design elements of a BMW Coupe have been carried over into the sub-compact segment and signature brand features have been given a fresh twist.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Another stand-out feature of BMW Coupes – the hallmark three-box body structure with a clear distinction between roofline and trunk– has a clear presence in the new sub-compact model. Like the side swage lines that wrap around into the tail, this feature picks up on characteristic styling elements of the BMW 2002, drawing a link between the new car and the brand’s long tradition of sporting and agile sub-compact models.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Lines tapering down dynamically towards the BMW kidney grille lend the front end of the BMW 2 Series Coupe a forward-surging presence. The modified contours of the headlight units narrow at their inner extremes, while a standard accent strip – or an LED accent light, if the Adaptive Xenon lights are fitted – cuts across the top of the hallmark BMW twin circular lights. The BMW kidney grille, which is separated from the headlights by narrow strips on either side, protrudes clearly from the front of the car and slants forward at a slight angle. The three-dimensional design of the grille surround and its 11 vertical bars reinforce the car’s striking appearance. The lower air intake is split into three sections. The two outer elements are particularly large and their outlines replicate the form of the headlight units. Air Curtains are integrated harmoniously into an additional section at the outer edges of the front apron and channel the onrushing air precisely behind the front fenders, causing it to hang over the wheels like a curtain. This reduces turbulence and further enhances the outstanding aerodynamics of the BMW 2 Series Coupe.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The profile of the BMW 2 Series Coupe sees signature brand features like a long hood, short overhangs, set-back passenger compartment, Hofmeister kink and door handles integrated into the swage line blending with coupe-specific design elements, chief among them the slim window graphic and sweeping roofline gliding back smoothly into the rear end. A prominent character line above the door sill sweeps up rearwards of the B-pillar into the rear wheel arch, whose powerfully flared form focuses the mind on the car’s rear-wheel drive and swells the BMW 2 Series Coupe’s body to its broadest point. The dynamic wedge shape is emphasized, too, by the door sill line itself, which likewise rises up towards the rear.

It features gearshift paddles on the steering wheel and a Launch Control function, which enables traction-optimized, dynamically maximized acceleration off the line. All the 0 to 60 mph acceleration figures for the automatic variants of the BMW 2 Series Coupe were recorded using Launch Control.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The standard Driving Experience Control switch on the center console allows the car’s set- up to be adjusted at the touch of a button through COMFORT, SPORT, SPORT + and ECO PRO settings.

BMW 2 Series Coupe drivers also reap the benefits of the latest addition to the fuel-saving arsenal – the coasting function, available in conjunction with the automatic transmission. At speeds between 30 and 100 mph (approx. 50 and 160 km/h), the powertrain is disengaged as soon as the driver takes his or her foot off the accelerator. If the Navigation system is specified, drivers can also enjoy the optional Active Driving Assistant. In ECO PRO mode this system alerts drivers to the ideal fuel-saving moment to take their foot off the gas ahead of corners, junctions, roundabouts and speed-restricted areas.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The standard BMW EfficientDynamics technology also includes Brake Energy Regeneration, on-demand operation of ancillary units, Electric Power Steering, an Optimum Shift Indicator and the Auto Start/Stop function.</span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-_t8nJBvxM_cgwTnm_FhfFTcPTUVUP907Pgt7n5VAYSk1xtmWEZoDzUbjX6O6RqA20CjJa00XMK7OmR8zJeIRF2hZ3Zx-5En-hnSzMWmNaUizYOQGp_voqPX5ymD05Rwt8nJgy3Fc5aw9/s1600/2014-BMW-2-Series-Coupe-13%255B2%255D.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="384" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-_t8nJBvxM_cgwTnm_FhfFTcPTUVUP907Pgt7n5VAYSk1xtmWEZoDzUbjX6O6RqA20CjJa00XMK7OmR8zJeIRF2hZ3Zx-5En-hnSzMWmNaUizYOQGp_voqPX5ymD05Rwt8nJgy3Fc5aw9/s640/2014-BMW-2-Series-Coupe-13%255B2%255D.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><b><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Advanced chassis technology tuned precisely to the engine’s output.</span></b><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The advanced chassis engineering of the BMW 2 Series Coupe includes elements such as a double-joint spring strut front suspension with spring struts and anti-roll bars, and a five- link rear suspension.

Another item available from the Original BMW Accessories range is the BMW M Performance braking system with even larger, compound cross-drilled discs and calipers painted in either red, orange or yellow.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The selection of optional equipment includes Adaptive M suspension with electronically controlled shock absorbers and M Sport suspension with extra-stiff spring and shock absorber settings. Both set-ups come with a 10-millimetre reduction in ride height. The BMW M Performance sports suspension (also available from the Accessories range) goes a step further still, offering customers a 20-millimetre drop in ride height, bespoke shock absorbers and shorter, red-painted coil springs for their BMW 2 Series Coupe from launch.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The standard DSC (Dynamic Stability Control) system comes complete with the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), DTC (Dynamic Traction Control), Cornering Brake Control (CBC) and Dynamic Brake Control (DBC). These tools are complemented by Brake Assist, Fading Compensation, the Brake Drying function and Start-Off Assistant. In DTC mode, the response thresholds of the driving stability system are set at a higher level. This allows the driver to make use of controlled slip through the driven wheels to pull away on snow or loose surfaces and when taking a particularly dynamic approach to cornering. In DSC Off mode, the Active Differential Brake (ADB- Sport) on the rear axle is activated. Here, a carefully calculated degree of braking force is applied to a spinning driven wheel under acceleration through tight bends, so that drive can still be channeled through the other wheel on the axle and traction levels optimized.</span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMbjaxZ7RJKirCE1MzqkMB3mGF9usA_yDNc2ngEmzYPbpGSM-kIWrlPBZBO7Nf9C2-1Qg5IYE8TISLa2K75R-izq_e2zuKxnS_ftDHEr1yUN-HcI0316rDWsCJssq8JAMBWXCd3gisUA4t/s1600/P90137592-highRes.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMbjaxZ7RJKirCE1MzqkMB3mGF9usA_yDNc2ngEmzYPbpGSM-kIWrlPBZBO7Nf9C2-1Qg5IYE8TISLa2K75R-izq_e2zuKxnS_ftDHEr1yUN-HcI0316rDWsCJssq8JAMBWXCd3gisUA4t/s640/P90137592-highRes.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><b>The BMW M235i Coupe:<br /><br />Topping the sporting ranks in the sub-compact segment</b><br /><br />• BMW M Performance Automobile with 322 hp TwinPower Turbo inline six-cylinder engine.<br />• Bespoke chassis technology and aerodynamically optimized body, set-up exudes hallmark M precision.<br />• Exclusive sports car interior for maximum driving pleasure.<br /><br />The BMW M235i Coupe is tailor made for the driving enthusiast.

This mechanical rear axle differential system optimizes traction in suitably dynamic driving situations. When the DSC stability system is switched off, this torque- sensitive limited- slip differential ensures drive is split between the rear wheels to optimum traction-maximizing effect. Reacting to differing torque between the driven wheels, it reduces slip at the wheel with low grip by channeling surplus drive to the other wheel through a locking effect. This controlled drive distribution leads to optimized traction and allows for even more dynamic handling at the limit. Engine power is translated into propulsion as effectively as possible to provide even more dynamic acceleration out of corners, for example.</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxwu9tWkLJfS0DERXFDL0ki7EMfyI7vdKrJKAQ05WFiV8ziSB7O9nOo79EfTw2SI3-wRTqfqjMkExt3IxH6vMc01Zb9pbLm7eKT-AiBFrp-sYRleERz5hgeGm88c-uAwv-iGXYehv6xrIq/s1600/P90138100_highRes.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxwu9tWkLJfS0DERXFDL0ki7EMfyI7vdKrJKAQ05WFiV8ziSB7O9nOo79EfTw2SI3-wRTqfqjMkExt3IxH6vMc01Zb9pbLm7eKT-AiBFrp-sYRleERz5hgeGm88c-uAwv-iGXYehv6xrIq/s640/P90138100_highRes.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSAqa5hjBhAYdriH6S4JXygNWhvX4MhAAC1tEVFW2IZqYGL3UG7x40OWtEZ87qJvkLMTskoy8w0-TeHHiqXuihuOn8k5b7WzmchQSvEP_6_zzeMzU3UepwUSwh05lYTuqIqa_Q0pWsSpMI/s1600/P90138099_highRes.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSAqa5hjBhAYdriH6S4JXygNWhvX4MhAAC1tEVFW2IZqYGL3UG7x40OWtEZ87qJvkLMTskoy8w0-TeHHiqXuihuOn8k5b7WzmchQSvEP_6_zzeMzU3UepwUSwh05lYTuqIqa_Q0pWsSpMI/s640/P90138099_highRes.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><br /><b><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Optimized aerodynamics, high-quality sports car ambience.</span></b><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Like its chassis technology, the aerodynamic properties of the BMW M235i Coupe have also been tweaked to take into account the output of its six-cylinder engine. The front apron bears the hallmarks of M design. Its large air intakes, with flaps adapted from racing car design, also occupy the space reserved for foglamps in the 228i. In the now customary style for BMW M Performance Automobiles, they are transected by horizontal crosspieces in Ferric Grey metallic. Other features of the exterior design are BMW Individual High-gloss Shadow Line trim, exterior mirror caps in Ferric Grey, particularly striking contoured side skirts and a rear apron whose lower section is finished in Dark Shadow metallic paintwork and also incorporates the exhaust system’s twin tailpipes. The package of aerodynamically optimized body features is rounded off by the standard-specification gurney flap on the trunk lid.<br /><br />The car also features door sill strips with aluminum inserts bearing “M235i” lettering and a specially “tuned” interior design.

The new car’s larger dimensions benefit both interior space and boot capacity. At the same time, even higher standards of passive safety have been achieved thanks to optimized material selection and innovative body construction technology, while weight has been minimized. The BMW 2 Series Coupe also includes a number of innovative pedestrian protection measures.<br /><br />Its broader spread of standard equipment is another aspect of the new model that clearly sets it apart from the BMW 1 Series. And the BMW 2 Series Coupe can also be specified with a host of high-quality options that underline its premium character.<br />Intelligent lightweight design optimizes agility and safety.<br /><br />The construction techniques and materials used for the body of the BMW 2 Series Coupe are underpinned by the principle of intelligent lightweight design. This approach allows agility and occupant protection to be enhanced while keeping the car’s weight as low as possible.<br /><br />For example, the increased rigidity of the car’s front end has a direct effect on the dynamic properties of the BMW 2 Series Coupe.<br /><br />Measures such as considered use of high and ultra-high-tensile steels lend the body increased torsional stiffness and ensure the strength of the safety passenger cell.

This means the BMW 2 Series Coupe has everything it needs to achieve outstanding ratings in all the relevant crash tests around the world.<br /><br />Extremely durable supporting structures, large deformation zones and highly efficient restraint systems coordinated by powerful control electronics form the basis for the high standard of passive safety in the new BMW 2 Series Coupe. The forces generated in a collision are diverted via precisely defined load paths, absorbed in the deformation zones and thus kept away from the extremely rigid passenger cell. In addition, further developed load path design optimizes compatibility when it comes to minimizing the consequences of accidents for other vehicles involved.<br /><br />Wide-ranging measures have been implemented in the development of the BMW 2 Series Coupe as far as pedestrian protection is concerned. Relocating the intake air duct for the engine plus the air filter for the interior allowed the creation of a larger deformation zone in the hood area. The BMW 2 Series Coupe has also been designed with an “active” hood system: in the event of a collision with a pedestrian or cyclist, the system automatically raises the rear part of the bonnet. This creates additional deformation capacity, and the risk of injury in a collision with particularly unyielding sections of the engine is reduced.<br />The standard safety equipment in the BMW 2 Series Coupe includes front airbags, side airbags integrated into the seat backrests, head airbags for the front and rear seats as well as knee airbags for the driver and front passenger. Three-point inertia-reel seatbelts for all seats, belt force limiters and belt tensioners in the front, and ISOFIX child seat attachments in the rear are also included. The standard Tire Pressure Monitor registers a loss of pressure in individual tires and warns the driver by activating a signal in the instrument cluster.</span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCM09rbqi46If185sirOiVEzYrI2oRQTZLsgeCyHm5m20vi5g24kSM7IWO7ALIZsX5R5xWTKJqoc6oSt2pWaTbipByXzfl1YLJfZp48ltciGSBSpayyR4kSv0cEpkpOwPdf_2k-QQM1Ovq/s1600/P90137594-highRes.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCM09rbqi46If185sirOiVEzYrI2oRQTZLsgeCyHm5m20vi5g24kSM7IWO7ALIZsX5R5xWTKJqoc6oSt2pWaTbipByXzfl1YLJfZp48ltciGSBSpayyR4kSv0cEpkpOwPdf_2k-QQM1Ovq/s640/P90137594-highRes.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_C1xPi5HZxnc06apBob5LTtLjjiRlBfNKzzqADqR0LT6HdXGLkXNxah1EnxprKNo7VwBg4RKNsSHt2a34Rw6kzJb1CpnothpYjFjBf2ImIVD6nb3Qer1jmk-9KIvHkYTdlq1tLD2m0BSm/s1600/P90137593-highRes.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_C1xPi5HZxnc06apBob5LTtLjjiRlBfNKzzqADqR0LT6HdXGLkXNxah1EnxprKNo7VwBg4RKNsSHt2a34Rw6kzJb1CpnothpYjFjBf2ImIVD6nb3Qer1jmk-9KIvHkYTdlq1tLD2m0BSm/s640/P90137593-highRes.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><b>Comfortable entry and more rear legroom.</b><br /><br />The BMW 2 Series Coupe is significantly larger than its predecessor in terms of exterior length, width, wheelbase and track width.

BMW ConnectedDrive offers a selection of innovative driver assistance systems and mobility services designed to optimize comfort, safety and the use of infotainment functions. Among the driver assistance systems available for the first time in a sub-compact model from BMW are the High Beam Assistant and optional Active Driving Assistant. The optional ConnectedDrive Services provide an optimized platform for using telephone and internet- based services, while a range of other innovative functions can be integrated into the car’s operating system via apps.<br /><br /><b>Driver assistance systems enhance comfort and safety.</b><br /><br />The range of BMW ConnectedDrive features available for the BMW 2 Series Coupe includes a rain sensor with automatic headlight activation. Adaptive Xenon headlights including cornering light are optional. Customers can also order their car with High Beam Assistant.<br /><br />Other features available for the BMW 2 Series Coupe include Park Distance Control and the rear view camera, which displays its images on the iDrive operating system’s Control Display in order to help to ensure precise and comfortable maneuvering. The likewise optional Parking Assistant aids the driver in choosing and making use of parallel parking spaces. The system identifies suitable spaces and, if desired, carries out the steering movements required to park the car.<br /><br />The innovative Driving Assistant option comprises the camera-based Lane Departure Warning and Collision Warning systems. The Lane Departure Warning system can be used at speeds over 70 km/h (43 mph) and alerts drivers with a visible signal in the instrument cluster and a vibration though the steering wheel rim if they have inadvertently drifted out of their lane. At speeds upwards of 15 km/h (9 mph), Collision Warning recognizes if the distance to the vehicle travelling in front has become too small. As well as triggering visual and acoustic warnings, this system primes the brakes to help the driver achieve the shortest possible stopping distance if he or she has to intervene.<br /><br /><b>Internet-based services can be integrated into the car via apps.</b><br /><br />Innovative technologies also optimize the integration of the Apple iPhone and other smartphones, as well as music players, into the car, including the use of internet-based services. The ConnectedDrive Services option lays the groundwork for in-car connectivity by means of a built-in SIM card. This allows customers to access the internet, the Concierge Service telephone-based information facility, remote functions, the BMW ConnectedDrive range of online entertainment features. BMW Assist eCall with enhanced automatic collision notification and BMW TeleService is included for 10 years as standard equipment on every BMW 2 Series in the US.<br /><br />Numerous other functions can also be integrated into the car at a later stage using apps – via a smartphone or the built-in SIM card. These include Advanced Real Time Traffic Information, web radio functions and use of social networking services such as Facebook and Twitter. The flexible app concept allows the integration both of applications developed by the BMW Group and of BMW Apps-ready applications from external providers. One app that is tailor-made for a car like the M235i is the M Laptimer. Looking forward, this capability will allow BMW drivers to seamlessly transfer numerous familiar functions into their car.</span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcDFlmO4t8IYP-l_SJZ6H9p5pqN2xyeCIHGxgvhM3HzSrDDiu7IeWWz5qGXTNCBA22bYz2h0mybmSOD_eSGXguE2lNfxJSon5VTtp1LXyqfvbAmYjOm8CPe5YHSeX5Wm5Ms2qsbCxkMvL4/s1600/P90137605-highRes.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left;
