AOL wrote an excellent review (below) on this model that describes the vehicle perfectly - please read the entire review to know this car.

The BMW 6 Series delivers stellar performance, brilliant handling, and that arrow-like stability that marks this marque.  The 6 Series is a true grand touring car, unique in the BMW line-up, and qualify as an ultimate driving machine, yet can be driven all day in perfect comfort.  They offer greater luxury and comfort than the Z4 sports car, yet with higher performance, more agile handling, and sportier styling than the 5 Series sports sedans.

Options on this model include:  heated front seats ($500); head-up display ($1,000); the Sport Package ($2,800) adding active steering, 19-inch sport wheels with run-flat tires, and sport seats; and a Premium Sound Package ($1,800) includes Logic7 audio with six-disc CD changer.

Leather upholstery, a choice of rich interior trim, and a long list of luxury features are standard, including a sports suspension, 18-inch wheels, xenon adaptive headlamps, and park-assist.  It comes standard with adaptive headlamps that aim toward the inside of a corner as the steering wheel is turned. This helps throw light around bend when cornering, reducing shadows and improving visibility for the driver.

The iDrive system features a big knob mounted on the center console that controls navigation, the audio system, climate controls, and other secondary functions.  Various functions can be selected by sliding the big knob left or right, forward or aft, then turning it like a knob to work through menus displayed on a monitor on the center stack, and pressing down on the knob to select options.  The head-up display projects speed, navigational information, cruise control status and other data onto the windshield.

The trunk is relatively large and can hold two sets of golf clubs. The BMW badge on the rear serves as the latch for the trunk. The trunk lid pops open fully when the button on the remote key fob is pressed.

BMW's 4.4-liter V8 delivers 325 horsepower and 330 pound-feet of torque.  The 3,781-pound coupe with the six-speed manual gearbox transmission can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 5.5 seconds, according to BMW.  The manual gearbox is smooth and precise, easy to shift, with easy clutch pedal effort; it's lighter than the six-speed used in the BMW M3.  In short, the six-speed manual is an excellent choice.  The 32-valve V8 benefits from Valvetronic variable valve timing and variable lift; breathing is controlled entirely by the valves. (Technically, there is no throttle, so the pedal on the right is more accurately called an accelerator.)  It's a fascinating engine for engineers and car buffs with technological marvels such as its Double VANOS steplessly variable intake- and exhaust-valve timing.  But the bottom line is that there's lots of power throughout the rev range, so the 645Ci responds quickly and precisely in any situation.  It's also an efficient engine, so energy is not wasted but is instead channeled into fuel-efficient power.  The engine sounds great, emitting a guttural roar under hard acceleration through its nicely tuned exhaust system.

The 6 Series cars ride lower than the 5 Series. A 645Ci is absolutely joyful on a winding road. Handling is precise, with a superb self-centering feel to the steering.  It goes around high-speed turns like it's on rails.  It can be driven very hard into tight corners.  The suspension is tuned to minimize undesirable behavior when braking hard, accelerating hard, or lifting off the gas while cornering.  Active Roll Stabilization dramatically reduces body roll in cornering.  As the car turns corners, the anti-roll bars are twisted by little hydraulic motors, so the 645Ci leans very little, even in hard cornering.  In addition to increasing driver confidence, the system improves handling over bumps, increases cornering capability, and improves steering response.

BMW patents strange three-cylinder pushrod engines, perhaps for cruiser motorcycle

Thu, Mar 12 2015

For decades BMW's motorcycles were easily identified by the two opposed cylinders sticking out of each side of the bike. While you can still find this layout on some of its products, these days the company also uses a variety of other layouts, depending on the model line. Based on European patents, there might even be a Bimmer in the ranks eventually with an absolutely bizarre-looking W3 configuration. BMW actually has two separate patents on these W3 designs, and both of them have the goal of cramming three cylinders into the space of a traditional V-twin. The first splays the cylinder out into a fan shape with pushrods operating the valves. The description submitted to the World Intellectual Property Organization describes the solution as, "The embodiment according to the invention represents an as of yet unknown type of W-3 reciprocating piston internal combustion engine having cylinder angles which can be largely freely sized." The other solution is more of a modification to the traditional V-twin. Two of the cylinders share a crankpin, but the third has its own and is positioned inside the angle of the V. It's a very odd-looking engine. With BMW's assertion that these designs are meant to fit in place of a traditional V-twin, Jalopnik speculates that they could be for a future cruiser from the company, and that would make sense. While brand offers a line of sport tourers with the K1600 line, it doesn't have something more classic to take on the likes of the Ducati Diavel. Creating such a weird engine would probably grab early interest from riders.

BMW i5 returns as next rumored i Project vehicle

Thu, Sep 17 2015

Hydrogen fuel-cell vehicle enthusiasts may want to give each other some high-fives when they hear the latest news about BMW's reputed i5. The German automaker has been rumored to be on the verge of expanding its i brand beyond its i3 battery-electric and i8 plug-in hybrid cars for a long while. The latest rumors say that BMW could be working on a hydrogen-powered i5 crossover. BMW is in the "final stages of consideration" of expanding the sub-brand, Bloomberg News says, citing comments BMW executive Ian Robertson made this week at the Frankfurt Motor Show. There may be more light-weighting efforts, and an alternative powertrain is sure to be in order, but there are few details beyond that. BMW of North America spokeswoman Rebecca Kiehne declined to comment to AutoblogGreen. Since 2013, BMW has worked with Toyota on hydrogen fuel-cell drivetrains and might further expand that relationship, MarketWatch says, citing BMW financial chief Friedrich Eichiner. The two automakers have already worked together on a prototype BMW 5 Series sedan with a hydrogen-powered engine. That car was unveiled this summer. Earlier this year, we heard reports about an i5 that would actually be a hybrid-electric vehicle of sorts, and an extremely powerful one. That rumored vehicle – again some sort of modified 5 Series – would actually contain one gas-powered engine and two electric motors, all combining for more than 540 horsepower. If these latest rumors turn out to be true, they would mark a change in things, but we won't be surprise if we hear yet another version of what the i5 will be before it's all said and done.

Recharge Wrap-up: BMW X5 PHEV debuting in Shanghai, Proterra sets up shop in CA

Thu, Apr 9 2015

South Carolina-based Proterra has received funding to build electric buses in California. The California Energy Commission has awarded the company, which is headed by former Tesla executive Ryan Popple, a $3-million grant. Proterra will use the funds for a facility in the LA suburb the City of Industry, where its largest customer, Foothill Transit, also operates. Proterra has also opened an office in San Bruno, just south of San Francisco. Read more at SFGate or at ValueWalk. Despite its "urban mobility" design, the BMW i3 has become popular outside of large cities. Rather than singular urban centers, "The strongholds in this country are parts of California, Texas and southern Florida," said BMW North America CEO Ludwig Willisch. He also says the electric car hasn't been particularly successful in the Northeast, with cities like New York perhaps not being as mindful of sustainability as California. BMW is also nearing i3 sales of 12,000 a year, which Willisch calls "a sustainable rate." Read more at Automotive News. BMW will debut its X5 xDrive40e plug-in hybrid at the Shanghai Motor Show this month. It is the first PHEV from BMW's core brand (not from its i sub-brand). It uses a turbocharged four-cylinder engine and electric motor for a total of 313 horsepower, and a combined fuel economy of about 70 miles per gallon (according to the ECE test cycle). Press days for the Shanghai Motor Show are April 20-21. Read more in the press release below. BMW at Auto Shanghai 2015.
