Munich (DE), 2nd May 2014. BMW Motorsport will not
only field eight BMW M4 DTMs in the 2014 DTM season, but is also
represented by a new lead car, based on the production model of the
BMW M4: the BMW M4 Coupé DTM Safety Car will lead the 23 DTM racing
cars around the circuits on the race calendar safely and with great aplomb.
The new BMW M4 Coupé (combined fuel consumption: 8.8-8.3 l/100 km;
combined CO2 emissions: 204–194 g/km) will make its debut as a safety
car at the race at the Nürburgring (DE) on 17th August 2014. The BMW
M4 Coupé combines motorsport genes and road capability in a
highly-emotional and balanced general concept. The completely new,
431-hp six-cylinder inline engine with M TwinPower Turbo technology
and high-rev characteristics generates a maximum torque of 550 newton
metres over a wide range of speeds. This allows the BMW M4 Coupé to
accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.1 seconds.
The values for fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and energy consumption shown were determined in a standardised test cycle according to the European Regulation (EC) 715/2007 in the version currently applicable. The figures refer to a vehicle with basic configuration in Germany and the range shown considers transmission (automatic or manual) and the different wheels and tyres available on the selected model and may vary during the configuration.
The values of the vehicles labelled with (*), are already based on the test cycle according to the new WLTP regulation and are translated back into NEDC-equivalent values in order to allow a comparison between vehicles. More information on the transition from NEDC to WLTP test procedures can be found here.
These figures are intended for comparison purposes and may not be representative of what a user achieves under usual driving conditions. For plug-in hybrid vehicles and battery electric vehicles the figures have been obtained using a combination of battery power and petrol fuel after the battery had been fully charged. Plug-in hybrid vehicles and battery electric vehicles require mains electricity for charging. The CO2 emissions labels are determined according to Directive 1999/94/EC and the Passenger Car (Fuel consumption and CO2 Emissions Information) Regulations 2001, as amended. They are based on the fuel consumption, CO2 values and energy consumptions according to the NEDC cycle.
A guide on fuel economy and CO2 emissions which contains data for all new passenger car models is available at any point of sale free of charge. For further information you can also visit this link.
