Munich. It was a long, loud and spectacular affair. On Saturday, following the third round of the 37th BMW International Open, the 18th green in front of the main stand was transformed into a long-drive arena. In what was now the third edition of “Launch Control”, the 2022 long drive world champion, Martin Borgmeier (GER), and his team took on the squad led by reigning world champion Zack Holton (USA) in an adrenaline-fuelled exhibition match.

The line-up included long-drive specialists Cassandra Meyer and Abby Marting, as well as Bryce Verplank and Bobby “Long Way” Ray (all USA). YouTube star Brad Dalke (USA) also jumped at the chance to take part in this competition, having already made the cut at the 37th BMW International Open with flying colours.

CO2 emission information.

Fuel consumption, CO2 emission figures and power consumption and range were measured using the methods required according to Regulation VO (EC) 2007/715 as amended. They refer to vehicles on the German automotive market. For ranges, the NEDC figures take into account differences in the selected wheel and tyre size, while the WLTP figures take into account the effects of any optional equipment.

All figures have already been calculated based on the new WLTP test cycle. NEDC figures listed have been adjusted to the NEDC measurement method where applicable. WLTP values are used as a basis for the assessment of taxes and other vehicle-related duties which are (also) based on CO2 emissions and, where applicable, for the purposes of vehicle-specific subsidies. Further information are available at www.bmw.de/wltp and at www.dat.de/co2/.
