It seems that 2009 will be a year that will leave your mark on the BMW Group. At least that seems to indicate the level of presentations by the brand in the upcoming Frankfurt Motor Show. It happens that the Mini Coupe Concept, a vehicle that is already revolutionizing the world of motoring, the BMW is added EfficientDynamic Vision, an efficient concept who had been captured during transport to Frankfurt and was waking up all kinds of suspicions on the web.

Looking to the Essen Motor Show, BMW does not go unnoticed in one of the most important auto shows in Germany, with the exception of Frankfurt, of course-and as such, will present a wide range of unique and personalized .

Among them stands out here, called BMW M3 M PerformanceWorked exclusively by the M division, this is a unique and unrepeatable edition which for now, no further information.

With a certified official beginning tomorrow, November 26, the Essen Motor Show will host a number of  BMW M models, all custom designed with official kits and accessories to show how far personalization of an M by the Bavarian , to give the client a truly unique and without equal. As such, to announce his arrival to the room we have the aforementioned M Performance M3, which we know practically nothing.

What we will bring the BMW X4 0

Posted on October 27, 2011 by Justin Ridge

What we will bring the BMW X4We have more than a year speculating what could be (and when it could be launched) a BMW X4, but apparently the Bavarian house is serious about competing in every little niche market that is open, so the X4 release is essential for the company’s plans.

When you have desire to cover BMW we add the success of the X series models with the minimalist trend of “less is more” in the automotive market, and we almost certainly launch a x4 to look like a “mini X6″ to repeat the winning formula X3 would become a “mini X6″.

Even knowing that objectively the X6 has certain disadvantages (just a utilitarian space, little grip for a coupe and a little convenience for family car), the driver loves this car and proof of this is healthy sales of the car, it is more a fad than a practical purpose.

If we rely on the X6′s engine options (similar to the X5) we can deduce that BMW is going to repeat the same powertrain mounting bearing the X3, so expect the streets to see a crossover from small engines 2.0 diesel of 177 bhp and two petrol engines hp and 306 hp de258.
