BMW 335i

Wikispecs.org - The Largest Product Database,the biggest product specifications database in the world

With 300 horsepower and class-leading 300 ft. lbs. of torque, the 335i Coupe is the most powerful 3 Series Coupe we’ve ever built, wrapped within the body of a beautiful machine. It features the world’s first inline six-cylinder engine with high precision injection and twin turbo chargers. It’s also remarkably fuel efficient, offering a major boost to engine power and a significant reduction of fuel consumption, at the same time. But even more impressive is that this engine marks a significant advancement in turbo technology. By using two small turbo chargers instead of one large one, our engineers eliminated the “turbo lag” other turbo engines are known for.

3.0-Liter, twin turbocharged 6-cylinder engine

Generating 300-hp and class-leading 300 lb.-ft. of torque, this advanced six accelerates with a force that throws you back in your seat and doesn’t stop until redline. Turbo lag is a thing of the past, thanks to our inspired use of two turbochargers, each supplying three cylinders with compressed air.

6-speed STEPTRONIC automatic

STEPTRONIC automatic transmission provides a choice of three modes: "Drive", which incorporates BMW's Adaptive Transmission Control; "Sport" automatic, for a more dynamic shift pattern; and STEPTRONIC automatic, for the hands-on control of a manual without using a clutch. And for quick and smooth shifting at the touch of a finger, opt for the steering wheel mounted shift paddles.

Active Cruise Control

Active Cruise Control is an advanced version of conventional cruise control systems. After setting the chosen speed and pre-set distance, radar measurements allow you to maintain a pre-set distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead in highway driving. As soon as sensors determine you are closing in on a vehicle ahead, the system automatically slows down to retain your pre-set distance. Once the distance has increased back to the chosen limit the system automatically accelerates to return your vehicle to its pre-set speed.

Active Steering

This technology varies the steering ratio to optimize driving dynamics for precise control of the vehicle at every speed. At low speeds, the car’s steering is nimble, allowing easy maneuverability for parking and sharp corners. At high speeds, the steering becomes more rigid for increased stability. Active Steering also enhances driver control in less than ideal driving conditions such as roads with patches of ice and snow. Active Steering helps to stabilize the vehicle more quickly and precisely than would a car without the technology. Even small deviations from the desired motion are adjusted to enhance stability. And since Active Steering retains a direct mechanical connection between the steering wheel and the steered wheels, the authentic steering feel remains a constant for the driver.

Adaptive Brake Lights

Adaptive Brake Lights are designed to reduce the risk of bumper-to-bumper collisions. The brake light area corresponds with how forcefully the driver applies the brakes. The more urgent the braking, the larger and brighter the brake light area becomes.

Bluetooth® Wireless Technology

Bluetooth wireless technology connects mobile phones enabled with Bluetooth to a vehicle for hands-free calling. With the use of a compatible Bluetooth enabled mobile phone, a driver can place and answer calls, and browse and select phonebook contacts from their phone, simply by using the multifunction steering wheel controls and radio keys.

Vehicles equipped with Bluetooth wireless technology are shipped fully activated, and only require the new owner to complete a simple one-time pairing procedure with a compatible Bluetooth phone. Up to four paired phones can be stored in the car’s memory system

BMW Assist™ with Bluetooth® Wireless Technology

Enjoy added safety, security and convenience with BMW AssistTM services.

With BMW AssistTM, you have a direct connection to the BMW Assist Response Center, any time, day or night. If you're in an accident, need roadside assistance or have a customer service question, just push a button from within your vehicle to speak with a response specialist. If you're in a serious accident, crash sensors will trigger the system for you. And, if your car is stolen, you can access stolen vehicle recovery services by phone.

BMW Ultimate Service™

BMW Ultimate Service is included at no charge with all new 2007 and later BMWs for the first four years or 50,000 miles, whichever comes first. It includes the BMW Maintenance Program, which covers all factory-recommended maintenance and items that need replacement due to normal wear and tear; a New Vehicle Limited Warranty; four-year, unlimited-mileage Roadside Assistance, and, if the vehicle is equipped, a four-year, unlimited mileage subscription to the BMW Assist™ Safety Plan. The BMW Assist and Bluetooth® system is standard in the 5, 6 and 7 Series; optional and included in the Premium Package in all other models.

Double Vanos

Double VANOS allows the engine to "steplessly" choose valve timing for both intake and exhaust camshafts. Electronically controlled in response to engine speed, load and temperature, Double VANOS maximizes engine response, efficiency and emission control. The benefit: more low- to medium-speed torque for strong acceleration and added flexibility for better highway performance, plus quieter, smoother engine at idle.

Dynamic Stability Control

Dynamic Stability Control is an innovative technology that combines the functions of traction control, braking enhancement, and cornering stabilization. DSC sensors continually monitor cornering-steering angle, transverse acceleration, yaw, wheel speed and brake pressure to instantly detect and correct loss of wheel traction due to slick spots, nasty weather, or emergency maneuvers. DSC helps you stay in control under all conditions, in any situation.

HD Radio™

HD Radio™ broadcasting is the new, digital standard for AM and FM radio stations. Across the United States, over 1300 AM/FM stations have upgraded to HD Radio technology, with over 600 of the FM stations also offering new, HD Radio-only "multicast" channels, vastly increasing programming choice. HD Radio stations are broadcast in crystal-clear digital sound and offer innovative data services, such as song artist and title scrolling across the screen. HD Radio is totally subscription free from your local AM and FM radio stations, once your car is equipped with an HD Radio receiver.

iPod your BMW

Total driving control meets total tune control with your fully integrated BMW iPod Adaptor. Shift between tracks and up to five BMW playlists and adjust volume without taking your eyes off the road or your ears off the music. Select "Scan" to preview tracks or "Random" to shuffle your playlist or entire iPod, and let the music take you to unexpected places.

Logic7 Audio System

Exceptional audio potential is fully reached with the available Logic7 audio system, which creates a new standard for acoustic realism in mobile sound. Unlike traditional stereo systems, Logic7 routes two-channel (stereo) sound through a seven-channel playback matrix to create 360-degree Surround Sound. The result is a thrilling recreation of the original music recording. Digital Sound Processing (DSP) and 13 upgraded speakers combine to deliver remarkable clarity and sound separation to all seating positions. And with the standard auxiliary audio input or optional 6-disc changer, the concert in the car can last for hours on end.

Run-Flat Tires

No more roadside tire emergencies. These self-supporting tires with integrated reinforcements allow tires that have experienced a loss of air pressure to maintain their shape and full use. They can be driven for up to 150 miles at reduced speeds. Due to low profile tires, please note: Wheels, tires, and suspension parts are more susceptible to road hazard and consequential damages.

SIRIUS Satellite Radio

Enjoy digital entertainment wherever you drive, coast-to-coast. SIRIUS delivers 60 commercial free music streams and over 40 news, sports and entertainment streams from the best names in the business, including CNN, ESPN, CNBC, NPR and Radio Disney. SIRIUS Satellite Radio integrates seamlessly into your vehicle with the controls of your BMW's radio.

Xenon Adaptive Headlights Xenon Adaptive Headlights provide brilliant clarity of the road ahead and to the side at night and in conditions with poor visibility. The dynamic auto-leveling feature adjusts for varying passenger and cargo loads, helping to keep headlight glare out of the eyes of oncoming drivers. BMW Adaptive Headlights provide optimum road illumination around corners, thanks to an electromechanical control system that directs the headlights into and around the bend as soon as the vehicle begins cornering.
