BMW X5 Revealed!

BMW Fans, check out this launchfilm of the all-new X5 and feel the pleasure of driving a vehicle that accepts the challenge of being driven around the world, all year long!

Spotted: 2014 BMW Alpina B4 Biturbo!

Legendary BMW tuner Alpina is about to expand its range with a brand new line, the B4, now that BMW’s 3-Series Coupe has been replaced by the 4-Series.

We now have the first spy shot of a prototype for this BMW Alpina B4 model, which we’re expecting to be launched on the market by the middle of next year, following an official debut at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show next March.

While it may look like an ordinary 2014 BMW 4-Series coupe, some signature Alpina elements reveal its true identity. The biggest giveaway are the quad-exhaust tips, which match the units on the 2013 BMW Alpina B3 Biturbo (based on the BMW 3-Series sedan).

The prototype, which is even marked as a “Werkstestwagen,” also wears Alpina’s popular multi-spoke wheels, measuring 20 inches across. The final giveaway are the blue-painted brake calipers, which even look to be marked with Alpina branding.

Like its latest B3 Biturbo, Alpina’s new B4 Biturbo will most likely come to market with a twin-turbocharged version of BMW’s 3.0-liter straight-six engine found in the 435i coupe. In stock form this engine rates at 300 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque, but with Alpina’s tuning expect output to be dialed up to 410 horsepower and 442 pound-feet of torque.

That should see the B4 Biturbo sprint to 60 mph from rest in around 4.0 seconds and reach a top speed of close to 190 mph.

Other performance modifications should include discrete changes to the bumpers, adjustable suspension and a tweaked version of the ZF eight-speed automatic fitted to the regular 4-Series range. An all-wheel-drive B4 Biturbo should also be launched further down the track in addition to a successor to the previous B3 GT3 race car.

BMW adds standard connectivity features!

BMW of North America is adding features to its ConnectedDrive infotainment system as standard equipment on most 2014 vehicles.

BMW Assist with the eCall enhanced collision notification system has been made standard on all but the X6 crossover and some 3-series hybrid models. It had been a $650/four-year option, said Eric Sargent, ConnectedDrive manager for BMW of North America.

If an airbag inflates during a crash, eCall notifies the BMW Assist center. The vehicle transfers data on the accident location, number of impacts -- sensors can tell if the vehicle was hit multiple times -- whether the vehicle flipped over and whether the driver and passengers were wearing seat belts, Sargent said.

The system analyzes crash data for the likelihood of severe injury and sends the data to emergency medical responders, said BMW spokesman Dave Buchko.

"They could start doing things like line up the trauma center or have a helicopter standing by," Buchko said. "It is critical to save minutes in that first 'golden hour' -- what the medical industry calls it. After that hour the potential success of any treatment begins to reduce dramatically."

BMW Assist includes TeleService, which monitors the vehicle to determine when maintenance is required. The system sends data to the customer's BMW dealership, which calls to make a service appointment. BMW Assist is transferable to new owners for 10 years.

Other standard features include a new touch pad on the iDrive controller that is used for navigation, communications and entertainment. The touch pad is standard on all vehicles except the X3 crossover and the 6-series coupe and convertible.

Owners of the iPhone with the iOS 6 operating system can pair the phone to the vehicle with Bluetooth and use Apple's Siri Eyes Free or Samsung's S Voice applications. Responses are given via the vehicle's sound system. Music libraries on an Apple iPhone or iPod touch can be accessed via Bluetooth and no longer require a cable.

BMW's concierge service has been made standard on all V-8 and V-12 6- and 7-series cars or as a stand-alone upgrade on most 2014 nameplates. The service costs $100 for one year or $250 for three years
