As an element of the 2nd generation fuel economy Efficient Dynamics package, BMW’s rival Mercedes-Benz E-Class, assures class-best aerodynamics which includes an innovational air curtain that produces a practical ‘fairing’ close to the rear wheels.
BMW has designed a drag of 30% to be generated by the tyres and wind disorder around the wheel arches.

In screens the air curtain cut drag between 5-10%. This is adequate to see considerable fuel economy and a decrease in emissions.

Future BMWs might also show off vigorous brake vent-holes that is capable to cool the brakes only when required. The new aerodynamic discoveries are the outcome of a immense 170m venture in 2 wind turbines at the Munich plant in Germany.

The all-new greasier BMW 5-Series is anticipated to be on sale in the UK from next March.
