118i120i125i135i120d
Convertibles are made for the sun.
This one is made for the billions of other stars too.
The night just gained another attraction.
Everything remains calm –
except your happiness hormones.
The beauty of this convertible is seen afresh
each and every morning.
BMW Ef� cient Dynamics.
This is how much we’ve invested.
The pleasure you get from driving a BMW is the result of fi ne engineering – always setting the benchmark because it is based on much more
than engine power. This is the tradition behind BMW EfficientDynamics. It includes the visionary CleanEnergy hydrogen-powered engine,
already used in a number of completely emission-free BMW 7 Series saloons. Also going into production soon is the BMW ActiveHybrid – an
intelligent, demand-oriented engine combining combustion and electronics. And every BMW already includes a technology package as
standard that boosts dynamics even further whilst simultaneously reducing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
High Precision Injection
In this cutting-edge generation of petrol direct
injection, the Piezo injectors are positioned
very close to the spark plugs. They inject the
fuel at high pressure and with extreme
precision. With the four-cylinder models
the injectors’ central positioning means only
part of the combustion chamber needs to be
fi lled with an ignitable petrol-air mixture. The
engine can then run “leanly” and so effi ciently,
precisely in the heavily used moderate load
range. (118i, 120i, 135i)
Auto Start/Stop function
BMW four-cylinder engines with 6-speed
manual transmission automatically shut down
when the vehicle is stationary, for example at
a red light or in a jam, when the driver activates
the clutch and switches to neutral. The engine
restarts as soon as the clutch is activated
again. This innovation significantly reduces
fuel consumption especially in city traffic.
(118i, 120i, 120d)
Brake Energy Regeneration
To supply a battery with electrical energy,
the generator (alternator) is customarily
driven using engine power, which demands
permanent fuel consumption. Brake Energy
Regeneration means the generator usually
only generates electricity when the driver
either takes the foot off the accelerator or
brakes – previously unused kinetic energy is
transformed in coasting mode into electrical
energy before being fed into the battery. In this
way, electricity is generated while coasting,
without consuming fuel. (All models)
Individual EfficientDynamics features may be excluded, depending on the optional equipment chosen. Your BMW Partner will be pleased to provide you with more information.
Electrical steering
In comparison with conventional, hydraulic
steering systems, the electrical steering only
uses energy during actual steering. When the
steering wheel position is constant – for
example at high speed along the motorway –
the electronic motor is inactive. (118i, 120i,
125i, 120d)
Tyres with reduced rolling-resistance
While driving, tyres are constantly changing
shape. This uses up energy and thus fuel.
Tyres with reduced rolling-resistance have an
improved design and use special materials for
their road treads and side walls, thus
reducing deformation. (118i, 120i, 125i,
120d)
Air vent control
Engine management signals the engine’s
current cooling capacity requirements
constantly while driving. Rendering a
permanent airstream through the radiator
unnecessary. The air vents in front of the
radiator open or close depending on the
environmental temperature and road speed.
When shut they improve aerodynamics,
shorten the engine’s warm-up time and so
reduce fuel consumption. (118i, 120i, 125i,
120d)
Shift Point Display
Timely gear shifts are one of the most effective
and easiest ways to save fuel. This is where
Shift Point Display in conjunction with 6-speed
manual transmission comes in. It shows the
driver what gear to use in order to drive more
effi ciently. (All models)
And this is what’s come out of it.
BMW already offers 21 models with CO2
emissions of 140 g/km and signifi cantly less.
But that’s just for starters. We’re carrying on
our research – in the quest to bring you more
driving pleasure and less consumption.
s Standard equipment o Optional equipment
o Lights package comprises vicinity lights,
which upon unlocking the doors illuminates
the area outside the doors for 20 seconds
to enable safe vehicle access in the dark.
Also included: reading lights front and rear,
footwell illumination at the front, vanity mirror
lights for driver and front passenger and
ambient lighting.
o Xenon headlights for high and low beam,
incl. daytime driving lights, headlight washing
system, four light rings and automatic headlight
range control, for better road illumination at
night or in bad weather.
o Adaptive headlights incl. turning lights,
only in conjunction with Xenon headlights,
incl. Adaptive headlights: optimal and prompt
illumination of bends through electromechanical
control of the moveable lamps as soon as the

BMW Recycling.
Your BMW is the product of a comprehensive recycling concept. But what exactly does that mean in practice?
It means that all the requirements of recycling are taken into account from the start, in the initial development of a
BMW. One example is careful material selection designed to preserve resources and to ensure effi cient recycling
compatible with the environment. Each BMW is designed and built for simple and economic recycling after its
long running life. Since 1994, we have been collecting the know-how required for this purpose at the unique
BMW Recycling and Dismantling Centre (RDC) near Munich. At the same time, the BMW Group is establishing a
complete network of vehicle recycling facilities within Europe, focusing in the process on the high standards of
quality and environmental care that BMW is renowned for. Please contact your BMW partner on all matters regarding
your end-of-life vehicle. They will be happy to help.
The models illustrated in this brochure show the specifi cations for the German market. In part, they include optional equipment and accessories not fi tted as standard. According to the specifi c requirements of other markets, alterations in models, standard and optional equipment, as described in this brochure, may occur. For precise information please contact your BMW partner. Subject to change in design and equipment. © BMW AG, Munich/Germany.
