Chassis / Suspension / Aero
  • Body-in-white lighter by 44 lbs.
  • Body structure lighter by 16.5 lbs.
  • Aluminum hood and front fenders saves another 33 lbs.
  • Overall body rigidity up 25%; as much as 50% in certain areas
  • Suspension spring rates increased by 20 percent without loss of comfort
  • Lift-related dampers use for first time in a BMW model (featured on both regular and M Performance suspension)
    • Reduces body movement perceptibly smoothing out vibrations caused by bumpy road surfaces and dynamic cornering. The system adds extra hydraulic damping at the front axle and a compression limiting system at the rear. It is continuously variable and adjusts the damper firmness progressively according to the changing spring travel. This prevents excessive body dive when driving over large bumps and so avoids uncomfortable, nervous damping response.
  • Ride comfort and acoustics both improved
  • Aluminum swivel bearings and control arms for the front axle, aluminum wheel mounts and a new generation of wheel bearings for the rear axle significantly reduce unsprung mass
  • Front spring struts and engine sub-frame now made of aluminum

  • Active air flap control extends across the BMW kidney grille and lower air intake

Adaptive M Suspension
  • Both the sportiest and most comfortable suspension available
  • Now with new valves and optimized control algorithm, which now also enables load-dependent control of the damping forces
  • ADAPTIVE mode is now available and adjusts car's responses to the driving style and, depending on the equipment specified, to the route profile. The control system responds to accelerator and steering inputs and the position of the selector lever to make the powertrain and suspension characteristics sportier or more comfort-oriented.
