Be tested: BMW 530d

[caption id="attachment_1634" align="aligncenter" width="580" caption="Be tested BMW 530d 1"]Be tested BMW 530d 1[/caption]

BMW Series 5 and Series 1 Series 3 is the next most successful series from BMW. To complete the winter because we took a 530d sedan under the microscope

He is

In 1972 BMW 5 Series lead with a limousine from the upper middle class, which will soon be in addition to the BMW 3 Series platform portfolio of Munich's success. In March 2010, the launch of the sixth last generation 5 Series will kick in Europe. Because one of the plant-F10 shortcut (Saloon) and F11 (tour) provided 5-common sight on the streets of Germany.

A look at the figures shows including approval black and white, who enjoys popularity today five generations pure and not mixed: January to October 2011 was 59 756 copies of approved 5ers. Of these, all 53 697 models have a diesel drive. Reason enough, even solar-5-times right into the teeth for fühlen.Unser test car, 530d sedan, is played with 258 hp for the 535d models and terms M550d violin performance as only the third diesel, but the promise, according to BMW remains "Excellence in all "- whether this promise is stable, we have analyzed.

[caption id="attachment_1633" align="aligncenter" width="460" caption="Be tested BMW 530d 2"]Be tested BMW 530d 2[/caption]

He offers

A BMW 5-Series offers the luxury and comfort of fit, of course, been here but still Munich for a typical level or sporty driving dynamics. In addition, the 5 Series now comes standard with many safety gadgets such as technical and renowned EfficientDynamics measures (start-stop function, brake energy regeneration, etc.), active head restraints and switch driving experience including Eco Pro mode. Our test car is in addition to full leather trim some additional more expensive across the board, for example, adaptive headlights, Head-Up Display, Comfort Access, rear view camera and BMW ConnectedDrive as the supply of online rounds and was baptized by the iDrive entertainment in Munich. In short: comfort-oriented drivers will lose nothing. Thanks to the excellent quality of consistently high-quality materials and feels luxurious seating is located in the 530d and settled, but he exudes both outside and inside of a typical BMW sportiness.

So he went

It will then be happy - although diesel power - when you press the start button directly erleben.Der three-liter diesel offers quiet operation, at no time may sound annoying, almost does not penetrate into the interior noise and vibration. Forward travel from 530d - thanks to 560 Newton meters of torque - also really neat. The 6.0 ton limo quoted 1.7 seconds in our test but needs 6.4 seconds from 0 to 100 km / h and the maximum speed specified by the 250 km / h can be associated with winter tires, unfortunately, not achieved. Positive but falling at the same time very strong and balanced power delivery. In terms of driving dynamics: this six-cylinder diesel engine can be moved very sporty and diesel are not catering to well-known stereotypes. Conversely, if necessary, the 530d also shift around the corner neatly. Due to different modes of driving experience, the switch cover from the sedan as well as all requirements in terms of suspension, of course you'd expect in the Sport + mode, do not expect the quality of the sports car sedan in the upper middle class. To fully recommend the optional eight-speed automatic sports cars we test, which offers precise switching points and the silky-smooth gear changes when required and to operate it manually via the steering wheel paddles or the shifter can be. Should be in everyday life and on the highway, where to be found 530d as a family car and the car business is usually, there is absolutely no question: the comfortable suspension, driving is always sufficient and adequate space in all things - even in the ground, Thanks to what is relatively larger dimensions of its predecessor's exterior: five inches gained in body length, the wheelbase has grown even three inches. Finally allowed to sprawl include large fund Grown in 5 -.

He did

When the cost of the then separate the wheat from the chaff, or high-income standards. The base price of € 49 900 is not bad, but the competition at eye level: Mercedes E 300 CDI is to have from 49 890, Audi A6 3.0 TDI quattro from € € 51 200. So who lust after the cross again in spades list of Extras, a few thousand on it very quickly. The sun is in the case of our test car at the end of exactly 69, € 740 the bottom line. German premium sedan in the middle class, just as long as there is no bargain anymore. Also, the insurance classification is KH 23/26 VK / TK 29 is anything but cheap. Score for the 530d when it comes to consumption: 5.7 to 5.9 liter factory specifications missed it, but at 6.3 liters - and a gentle pace - it is the promise of the marketing department of BMW pretty close. Let the feet of gas, including sport + mode hang out, but approved and 530d in the best tradition of the rotor ten liters of fuel per hundred kilometers.

test Mercedes-Benz E 300 Bluetec Hybrid: Or diesel

[caption id="attachment_1609" align="aligncenter" width="580" caption="Mercedes Benz E 300 Bluetec Hybrid"]Mercedes Benz E 300 Bluetec Hybrid[/caption]

Anyone who lives mainly in the city at the wheel of traffic lights and shopping traffic, which is a hybrid gasoline-operated well. For this he has developed. But life is not only a somewhat larger vehicles on state roads and highways. Because of economical diesel drive. Anyone who still wants to take advantage of the hybrid system, it must be combined with diesel, as in 3008 and Mercedes-Benz E 300 Blue Tec hybrid.

From June to collect diesel hybrid vehicle in the business of E-Class. In the E 300 BlueTEC Hybrid, four-cylinder 2.4-liter diesel engine from 150 kW / 204 hp to kW 20/27 hp electric motor and seven-speed automatic transmission is connected.The electric motor is located over 65 mm thick, between diesel and auto iris. He can provide power when needed for acceleration and deceleration as an energy in the speed of 0.8 kWh lithium ion battery.

[caption id="attachment_1610" align="aligncenter" width="560" caption="Mercedes Benz E 300 Bluetec Hybrid"]Mercedes Benz E 300 Bluetec Hybrid [/caption]

Although also a short time, E 300 hybrid and electric slow the flow out of driving a small battery. But that's not the purpose of the developer. Somewhat because, to save battery weight. They want a system that benefits from the hybrid (mild) fully utilize parallel. So, you are also taught that the E 300, and yachting. The driver releases the gas to reduce speed or take advantage of the slope, turn off the engine, the car rolls or 'screen.

That in itself is not new to sailing a few. Mercedes-Benz is now further and create, plus sailing. During the regular sailing slow generator / electric motor in the same size, as will pull the engine torque in the case of rolling with the teeth involved.When sailing, plus the effect is turned off. The car slid off when the motor without the braking effect of continued recovery, plus if you have sailed on. This one is used once on a paddle shift paddles on the steering wheel plus.

Any person using this technique fully, is the standard consumption average of 4.2 liters per 100 km closer. We moved from our first trip with a diesel hybrid to normal quickly and reach it with (the cart over to eat with the big wheels) with a value of 5.9 liters per 100 km. Fuel consumption and consumption practices are 15 percent to 20 percent below the comparable consumption E-Class with hybrid drive for free.

For this benefit, you pay the extra cost slightly more than € 3500. Additional costs will be recorded again after some 20 000 kilometers. In Germany, the sedan will cost € 794.75 according to a list of 51 and T-55 Model € 007.75. About cents you will be able to talk to the dealer.

Mercedes-Benz with a diesel hybrid is now the second hybrid drive in this program. Mercedes-Benz S 400 will also bring the company in June this year on the market. Target groups for this hybrid S-Class, the Stuttgart saw more in the United States and China. But they show that they now have a kit, the modules, they can upgrade many models of hybrid vehicles.
