AMG33D replied to AMG33D's topic in General Discussions
The ideal vehicle Affalterbach and others. With the S 63 4MATIC Cabriolet, Mercedes-Benz introduces a very desirable fantasy vehicle. Mercedes has never done this before in its 48-year existence.Mercedes-Benz, known for its high-performance sports cars and luxury sedans, has expanded its product lineup to include a four-seater Cabriolet in the S-Class sector, appealing to vehicle fans who value both performance and luxury. With the new model, you may travel in comfort with up to three people. The impressive specs include a 5.5-liter V8 biturbo engine that produces 430 kW (585 hp) and 900 Nm of peak torque, standard all-wheel drive with AMG Performance 4MATIC and a rear-biased torque split, a 3.9-second zero-to-100 km/h acceleration time, and a high-performance composite brake system for optimal deceleration. The new S 63 4MATIC Cabriolet is clearly a product of car lovers for car enthusiasts, thanks to its high-performance technology and expressive external and interior design. According to Tobias Moers, Chairman of the Board of Management of Mercedes-AMG GmbH, "The new S 63 Cabriolet is another fascinating AMG dream car from Affalterbach." The new model shows that Mercedes-AMG is determined to keep pushing the envelope in 2015. In every market category, we are resolutely pursuing our model initiative. AMG Performance with Less Weight The vehicle's exceptional and dynamic personality is built around its very stiff bodyshell construction, which incorporates unique solutions like the magnesium bulkhead in the baggage area. Lightweight lithium-ion batteries, AMG light-alloy wheels made using a complex forging technique, and a weight-optimized AMG high-performance composite braking system have all contributed to keeping the convertible's naturally elevated curb weight to a minimum. Aluminium also makes up a significant portion of the vehicle's exterior, front section, and even its tail end. Superior and efficient: the AMG 5.5-liter V8 biturbo engine Among V8 engines manufactured in series, the AMG 5.5-liter V8 biturbo engine continues to rank among the most efficient in terms of peak power, torque, and fuel economy. The AMG eight-cylinder engine is top-of-the-line with 430 kW (585 hp) and 900 Newton meters of torque. The S 63 Cabriolet's performance is second to none: it can reach a high speed of 250 km/h (electrically restricted) and can go from zero to hundred km/h in 3.9 seconds. The two-door variant is the most fuel-efficient in its competitive sector, with a NEDC fuel consumption of 10.4 litres per 100 km. The fact that this is possible demonstrates that achieving goals of efficiency, performance, and environmental friendliness are not incompatible. Automatic exhaust flaps for the exhaust system The engine sound of the S 63 Cabriolet may be adjusted to fit the driver's preferences, whether it's an expressive and sporty sound or a more subdued option that's good for lengthy trips. The exhaust system has two rear silencers equipped with automated exhaust flaps that are regulated by logic. For the most part, the transmission's "C" (Controlled Efficiency) mode keeps the flaps closed, which muffles the noise of the eight-cylinder biturbo engine. For drivers who want a more active style of driving, the exhaust flaps open sooner and more spontaneously in "S" (Sport) and "M" (Manual) modes. As a consequence, the unique and emotionally charged sound of an AMG engine is produced."One man, one engine:" a legacy of meticulous craftsmanship At AMG's manufacturing facility in Affalterbach, the biturbo eight-cylinder engine for the S 63 Cabriolet is installed by hand in the hand-finishing area. Following the "one man, one engine" principle, highly skilled engine fitters build the engines to the highest quality requirements. The engine technician's signature on the AMG engine plate not only confirms the exceptional accuracy and manufacturing quality, but it also relates to the legendary heritage of Mercedes-Benz's high-performance sports car brand. Unique selling point: AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT 7-speed manual gearbox The 7-speed sports gearbox, AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT, and the V8 biturbo engine work hand in hand. The specific usage of this gearbox at AMG contributes to its outstanding agility and thrilling characteristics. Each driver has the option to create a unique configuration that best suits their driving style. You may choose "C" for "Controlled Efficiency," "S" for "Sport," or "M" for "Manual" from the available modes. Transmission mode "C" activates the normal ECO start/stop function. All-wheel drive from performance manufacturer AMG 4MATIC You may choose the S 63 Cabriolet with either rear-wheel drive (available exclusively in the RHD version) or the performance-oriented AMG 4MATIC all-wheel drive (available in the LHD version). The only version available with both the S-Class Cabriolet and 4MATIC is the AMG version. With this setup, the front axle receives 33% of the engine's torque while the rear axle receives 67%. Acceleration is enhanced in any driving circumstance, including when starting from a standing start, thanks to this rear-biased power distribution, which also delivers the characteristic AMG high driving dynamics and exceptional driving pleasure. Improved traction and stability in rainy or snowy weather are additional benefits of all-wheel drive. AIRMATIC's lifting system The suspension is another area where the AMG experts have spared no expense: An air suspension with full-support and an adjustable damping system (ADS PLUS) with two modes—"Sport" and "Comfort"—is standard on the S 63 Cabriolet. With the simple press of a button, you may choose between two programs that provide different levels of agility and dynamics, as well as endless comfort for long trips and quiet riding at low speeds. The Cabriolet's front axle has unique kinematics, such as a steeper camber, a bigger anti-roll bar, and a rear axle subframe carrier that is stiffer. Unpleasant rolling and pitching is prevented via AMG-specific elastokinematics and parameterisation of the continuously variable damper control, decreased air volume of the air suspension system, and progressive piston geometry. If you're driving on uneven ground, you may additionally lift the car 30 millimetres. With a speed of 120 km/h in "Controlled Efficiency" mode and again in "Sport" mode, the chassis is automatically lowered. Methodical reduction in weight: standard AMG forged wheels Forged AMG light-alloy wheels are standard on the S 63 Cabriolet. The wheels are very lightweight and sturdy thanks to the forged construction. The benefits in handling and reactivity from the springs and dampers are a direct outcome of the reduced unsprung masses. The S 63 Cabriolet comes standard with titanium grey multi-spoke forged wheels finished with a high-sheen. The front wheels are 8.5 x 19 and the rear wheels measure 9.5 x 19, and the tires that come with them are 255/45 R 19 and 285/40 R 19, respectively. The AMG Performance Studio offers forged wheels as an optional extra in two sizes: 8.5 x 20 for the front wheels and 9.5 x 20 for the rear wheels. The wheels come with 255/40 R 20 tires and 285/35 R 20 tires, respectively. Performance ceramic composite braking system from AMG, available as an option Thanks to its weight-optimized, fade-resistant high-performance composite braking system, the S 63 Cabriolet always comes to a quick halt and decelerates with ease. One alternative is a ceramic high-performance composite braking system. The design's reduced unsprung masses, improved driving dynamics, agility, and ride comfort are all results of the design's more than 20% weight reduction. Style as a means of expressing athleticism and prowess To complement its athletic performance, the S 63 Cabriolet sports a stunning exterior design: The new ideal vehicle's design showcases the cutting-edge technology that powers it. Front and centre, you'll see the three-dimensional "twin-blade" radiator grille in silver chrome, one of many beautifully crafted aerodynamic components that contribute to the exceptional handling and handling characteristics. The "A-wing" is a three-dimensional aerodynamic component seen behind the radiator grille; it is body-colored and bears the stylised "A" emblematic of AMG automobiles. On each side of the cooling air intakes are big, black flics. Optimal airflow to the cooling modules is achieved below by means of the silver chrome front splitter. The car also seems to be getting closer to the road because of this. The side sill panels achieve a similar look with their silver chrome, high-quality, three-dimensional inlays. The S 63 Cabriolet's dynamic stance is a result of these inserts and the lower feature line. Also immediately noticeable is the high-gloss black diffuser insert located at the back. An attractive contrast is provided by the lower silver chrome trim piece, which is evocative of the front A-wing. The exhaust system's two chromed twin tailpipes, which have sports flaps, blend flawlessly with the diffuser insert. There is enticing opulence and athletic exclusivity throughout. As soon as you open the door, you'll be greeted with the entrancingly plush interior of the S 63 Cabriolet. The instrument panel wraps around the vehicle, almost disappearing into the doors. With a sporty, distinctive design idiom, high-quality materials and superb craftsmanship are integrated. The newly designed AMG sports seats provide the best possible lateral support for the driver and front passenger with electronic adjustment, Memory feature, and seat heating. Optimal command of the car is possible thanks to the three-spoke sports steering wheel's perforated leather grip area and uniquely shaped rim. Quicker gear changes and more responsive handling are the results of aluminium shift paddles. In the form of an instrument cluster with two dynamic circular dials, the high-resolution TFT colour display showcases another characteristic AMG design. The start-up screen, the AMG emblem on the speedometer with a 330 km/h scale, and the "V8 BITURBO" inscription on the rev counter are further distinguishing design elements, along with the red/silver needles and AMG-specific typography. The world made its debut in 2015, and by 2016, goods were available for purchase. At the Frankfurt International Motor Show, the S 63 Cabriolet will make its debut to the world. The product will be available for purchase in December, with the commercial launch starting in the spring of 2016. -
sumptuous open-top Stuttgart (Germany). Being Mercedes-Benz's first open-top luxury four-seater since 1971, the new Cabriolet is the sixth iteration of the present S-Class family. It provides state-of-the-art technology found in the S-Class in addition to a unique, alluring, and special appearance, as well as a thorough idea for warmth and wind protection, including intelligent temperature management for convertibles. The September Frankfurt International Motor Show will be the site of the international debut of the stylishly athletic vehicle. A Mercedes-Benz spectacular dream automobile will also be on display in Frankfurt.S63 4MATIC Cabriolet, a vehicle manufactured by AMG. It can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.9 seconds and has AMG Performance 4MATIC all-wheel drive with a rear-biased torque split as standard. The engine is a 5.5-liter V8 biturbo and produces 430 kW (585 hp) and 900 Nm of peak torque. "This new S-Class Cabriolet represents our passion for individual and timelessly exclusive mobility, which we share with our customers. It's a pleasure to be able to offer Mercedes aficionados an open-top car in the S-Class after 44 years," says Ola Källenius, Board Member of Daimler AG, Mercedes-Benz Cars Sales. Rigidity is a hallmark of the new S-Class Cabriolet. Thanks to innovative solutions like the magnesium and aluminium bulkhead in the baggage area and the aluminium rear floor, the bodyshell weight is reduced to the same level as the S-Class Coupé. In addition to a gas generator that moves the roll bars into place, the standard-fit roll-over protection system that is located behind the rear head restraints makes use of pyrotechnic activation of the actuators. "The S-Class family is now complete. We have never offered six models in the luxury class before - and we have never enjoyed such success," remarks Prof. Dr. Thomas Weber, Member of the Daimler Board of Management responsible for Group Research and Head of Mercedes-Benz Cars Development, two years after the launch. "The S-Class sets the pace on the global market when it comes to safety, efficiency and comfort." The most comfortable convertible in the world, according to Mercedes-Benz, is their own creation. The intelligent temperature control, heated armrests, upgraded automated wind protection system AIRCAP, neck-level heating system AIRSCARF, and rear seat heating all work together to make sure you're comfortable no matter the weather. The climate is entirely managed automatically, unlike traditional systems. This eliminates the requirement for the driver to save a temperature setting specific to closed or open top driving or to choose a mode for these modes. The idea of the baggage compartment demonstrates meticulous craftsmanship as well; the soft top folds down into a portion of the compartment when the top is opened. An electrically controlled retractable cover encloses the soft top, separating it from the remaining baggage compartment area. As soon as the soft top is opened, this baggage compartment wall expands automatically. The driver may now open and close the baggage compartment lid without stopping the vehicle, which is a huge time saver. If the baggage compartment is filled to the brim with stuff, the barrier will not activate. To make more room for your bags, you may shut the soft top and then push a button on the boot lid's inner panelling to retract the baggage compartment divider. Further conveniences include an internal through-loading capability and standard-specification electro-hydraulic remote locking for the baggage compartment. Adaptive profile, first-rate quality: the layout Speaking about the new S-Class Cabriolet, Daimler AG's Head of Design Gorden Wagener praised it as "one of the most beautiful and exclusive S-Class cars of all time" due to its sensuous and pure design style. "It embodies modern luxury in a very special way and is an expression of both effortless superiority and progressivity." Front and centre is the black diamond radiator grille with the Mercedes star and one silver louvre with chrome inlays; it's the showpiece of the front end. The two strong character lines on the bonnet give it a dynamic touch. The eye-catching front bumper has massive air intakes on both the centre and side panels. The chrome accents give the front end a sporty look. Exquisite Swarovski crystals adorn the daytime running lights and direction indications of the optional LED Intelligent Light System, showcasing the car's beauty in sparkling brilliance. With the soft top down, the S-Class Cabrio's side profile takes on an exhilarating, dynamic coupé appearance. The side design incorporates a low greenhouse, completely retractable side windows, and a lowering line of the side wall that descends towards the rear. When closed, the vehicle's multilayer tight soft top highlights its class. Black, dark blue, beige, and dark red are the colour options for the soft top. At speeds up to 60 km/h, the soft top may be opened and closed using the switch located on the central console. It takes around 20 seconds for the door to open and close. Above the baggage compartment's mechanically expanding divider, the soft top is placed. A tensioning-arm top is the latest soft top design from Mercedes-Benz. The necessary closing pressures for the soft top are produced by 'overcentering,' or repositioning the tensioning arms beyond their dead centre point. As a result, the S-Class Cabrio's high-quality design is maintained, and no extra closures are required on the soft top compartment lid. The electronic key also allows you to unlock and close the door from outside the car. The strong shoulders and flat LED tail lights at the back provide the appearance of breadth. Effortlessly blending into the back image is the closed soft top with glass window. A broad chrome trim feature frames the soft top compartment lid. A horizontal chrome trim piece, two exhaust trims that are visible, and a rear bumper that resembles a diffusor give the vehicle a dynamic appearance. On top of concealing the reverse camera and the optional 360-degree camera, the hinged Mercedes star doubles as a grip to lift the trunk lid by hand. Inside, the S-Class Cabriolet evokes an extraordinarily refined ambiance with its superb materials and opulently athletic design language. The open-air lounge, reminiscent of a boat, is created when the soft top is opened. The exclusivity of the vehicle is emphasised by the meticulously coordinated colour and material selection, as well as the top-notch controls made of true metal or chrome-look. Leather, nappa leather, or designo Exclusive nappa leather are available as personalisation options, along with six inside colour schemes, one of which is a maritime-inspired blend of porcelain and deep-sea blue. All of the materials are of the finest quality and have a distinct handmade feel. Typical low-wind audible Mercedes-Benz, reigning champions of aerodynamics, raises the bar with the S-Class Cabrio, which has a Cd value of 0.29. The extensive engine compartment and main floor panelling, the underbody panelling concept, the rear axle cladding, the aerodynamically optimised wheel spoilers, the aerodynamic shape of the exterior mirrors, and the well-balanced power split between the front and rear axles are all factors that contribute to the excellent air flow characteristics. The open four-seater provides outstanding noise-related comfort, making it a worthy sibling model to the S-Class Coupé, the most silent series production vehicle overall. As an ordinary feature, it has a three-layer acoustic soft top. Instead of the former neoprene layer, the outside fabric cover now has a butyl layer that acts as a water barrier on the inside. Along with the acoustically designed roof liner and improved upholstery matting, this reduces noise levels. Additionally, the insulating layer prevents bows that are visible from the outside from detracting from the graceful profile shape. A low level of wind noise inside is achieved in large part by the bodyshell measures, the sealing design for the doors, and the double glazing. The aerodynamics team has paid close attention to ensuring a draught-free cabin in addition to ensuring comfort in relation to noise. The AIRCAP autonomous wind protection system is an accessible optional feature on the new S-Class Cabrio. To lessen internal turbulence, this may be expanded with the push of a button. One part of AIRCAP is an extensible net wind deflector that snaps into the roof frame; the other part is a draught-stop that snaps into place behind the back seats; both parts have a convex shape and stainless steel trim. A new improvement is the inventive diffusor ribs that run down the base of the front louvre. They lower the decibel level by creating targeted turbulence effects. The S-Class Cabrio's wind deflector is finished in the same hue as the body. The AIRSCARF neck-level heating is another possible function that may be customised. By making it possible to drive comfortably with the top down even when the temperature outside is low, this allows the convertible season to last longer. Using the head restraints as a conduit, this innovative neck-level heating system warms the air that flows around the neck and head of the passengers. THERMOTRONIC: very advanced temperature regulation A future generation of open-top Mercedes-Benz cars will include an advanced temperature management system that is both very user-friendly and well suited to the weather. This technology makes its debut in the new S-Class. Those Mercedes a/c specialists?For this system, Benz created a brand-new software architecture and put it through its paces on cutting-edge "hardware-in-the-loop" test stands before honing it in the climatic chamber and during test drives. The climate is entirely managed automatically, unlike traditional systems. This eliminates the requirement for the driver to save a temperature setting specific to closed or open top driving or to choose a mode for these modes. For optimal thermal comfort, an overlapping function accomplishes the remarkable feat of seamlessly switching between closed and open top (and back again). Here, the Cabrio reaps the benefits of the S-Class's premium climate control system, which allows for things like automated individual adjustment of each nozzle. Many different parts of the car may exchange data with the AC control unit since it is completely networked. An perfect environment may be achieved in every situation thanks to the 12 sensors and 18 actuators. The sensors can measure not only the temperature inside and outside, but also the amount of sun radiation. As fresh air is pulled in, a sensor that detects air pollution and hazardous substances keeps a close eye on it. A dewpoint sensor detects the relative humidity of the front windscreen in order to successfully avoid foggy windows. The dashboard and the back shelf each include solar sensors, so when the sun's rays change, the blower volume and temperature are quickly adjusted to your preferences. The standard-fit THERMOTRONIC automated climate control system allows a person to feel good on board with two climate zones and three climate types (diffuse, medium, or focussed). Each front seat passenger and driver has five separate temperature controls, as well as controls for airflow, air distribution, and the footwells. Air distribution, blower functioning, and temperature regulation are all affected by the soft top's condition. After starting up the car, the new THERMOTRONIC with intelligent temperature control instantly supplies cold air and then controls the climate as inconspicuously as possible, following the Mercedes-Benz concept. Even cosier heated temperatures are provided with the optional Warmth Comfort package. Not only are the seats heated, but so are the armrests on the central console, doors, and multifunction steering wheel. At the push of a button, the driver and front passenger may choose one of three heat settings. Another option is the AIR-BALANCE package, which includes ionisation, fragrancing, and an activated charcoal filter for further air cleansing. The Cabriolet is the only vehicle authorised to use the new scent PACIFIC MOOD. A complete S-Class including drive, suspension, and active safety features With its 335 kW (455 hp) V8 engine, the S 500 Cabrio is very powerful. The engine's peak torque is 700 Nm at 1800 rpm, and its displacement is 4663 cc. The Cabrio uses 8.5 litres of premium-grade fuel per 100 kilometres in NEDC combined mode, and it emits 199 g/km of CO2. Both sporty and eco-conscious drivers will appreciate the 9G-TRONIC 9-speed automatic transmission's versatility. The full-support AIRMATIC semi-active air suspension with infinitely variable damping adjustment is standard on the S-Class Cabrio. When it comes to handling stability and road noise, this system is the gold standard. Depending on one's preferences, it may be adjusted to a sportier or more comfortable mode. Impressive levels of driving comfort and precision suspension movement are provided by the four-link front axle. Numerous additional support systems are available for the new Cabrio, just as they are for the S-Class Saloon and Coupé, making driving even more enjoyable and safer. The following intelligent drive systems are available: PRE-SAFE® Brake with pedestrian detection, DISTRONIC PLUS with Steering Assist and Stop&Go Pilot, Brake Assist BAS PLUS with Cross?Vehicle Stability Assist, Active Lane Keeping Assist, Night Vision Assist Plus, and Adaptive Highbeam Assist. Even the base model of the vehicle comes equipped with the COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST PLUS system, which has a distance and collision warning function and works in tandem with Adaptive Brake Assist to protect the driver and passengers from collisions as low as 7 km/h. When the driver doesn't react to an ongoing collision risk, the system can autonomously brake up to 100 km/h, reducing the impact of collisions with slower or stopped vehicles. Even at speeds of up to about 50 km/h, the system can detect when a car is stopped and apply the brakes accordingly; moreover, it can avoid rear-end crashes at speeds of up to around 40 km/h. Updates to the PRE-SAFE® occupant safety system have resulted in the PRE?SAFE® PLUS, PRE-SAFE® PLUS may detect when a rear-end accident is about to occur and alert oncoming vehicles by rapidly flashing the rear danger warning lights. The technology may "lock" the brakes of the stopped vehicle just before a rear-end accident and engage the PRE-SAFE® belt tensioners just before contact if there is a persistent threat of collision. Reducing the forward shock induced by the collision and ensuring the passengers are in the best possible posture minimises the likelihood of whiplash damage. Exceptionally lightweight and intelligently designed: incredibly stiff The latest addition to the world's biggest premium model family, the S-Class Cabriolet, is the sixth iteration of the present S-Class and measures 5027/1899/1417 mm in length, breadth, and height. The Cabrio takes around 60% of its bodyshell components from its closest sibling, the S-Class Coupé. The aluminium back floor is a first, and it's a totally novel design element. As a result, this smart combination of materials now includes more than half of this lightweight metal by surface area. Innovative die-cast aluminium longitudinal members, built using a process originally intended for the present SL, are a standout feature. A sand core is used to create a closed cast body that is hollow on the interior, which is the longitudinal member. This allows for a range of wall thicknesses to be achieved, as well as the integration of numerous components into the longitudinal member. This results in a longitudinal member design that is both functionally optimal and weight-optimized. The multifunction well, which was formerly known as the spare wheel well, is welded into the bodyshell to achieve the high functional goals of noise, vibration, durability, and crash characteristics. In addition to the pyrotechnically expanding roll bars and a through-loading entrance into the baggage compartment, the rear wall behind the rear seats reinforces the body and adds another distinctive feature. This part of the back wall is made of aluminium and is known internally as the "hockey goal" due to its distinctive design. To guarantee this assembly's high stiffness, two shear panels—the magnesium rear wall and an aluminium section cover—are used. The side wall is fastened to the back wall using two very big cast-aluminum components. To further increase the four-seater convertible's stiffness, there are many reinforcements on the underfloor. As a whole, the body engineers have accomplished two seemingly contradictory goals: first, the S-Class Cabrio achieves torsional stiffness values comparable to those of the S-Class Coupé, which was replaced last year; second, the bodyshell weight of the current closed sister model has been stabilised. As an extra weight, the hydraulic pump of the automated soft top employs the vibration absorber, which is one of the clever ideas that contribute to the weight savings of around 7 kg. Regular-fit roll-over safety system: Completely explosive The airbag control unit notifies the rollover protection system when it senses that the vehicle is about to roll over. This aids in keeping the passenger compartment safe by being swiftly extended behind the rear head restraints. Instead of utilising spring force, the roll bars are expanded pyrotechnically, using a gas generator. This is a first for Mercedes-Benz. Modern yaw rate sensors make this feasible since, unlike the old tilting cone sensors, they almost eliminate the possibility of accidental activation. The lack of tear lines in the panelling behind the rear head restraints is indicative of the exceptional design quality seen in the S-Class Cabriolet. Heritage: the sought-after 1960s fantasy automobiles Mercedes-Benz has a rich history of producing luxurious cabriolets, and the new S-Class Cabriolet continues that legacy. As early as the 1920s, Stuttgart's high-end cabriolets offered drivers the best of both worlds: the wide road and the security of a Mercedes-Benz saloon. The top-tier Mercedes-Benz vehicles were offered in the highly desirable cabriolet version right from the commencement of post-war manufacture. In 1949, there was the 170 S (W136), in 1951 it was the 220 (W187), and in 1952 it was the 300 S (W 188). A particularly exquisite open-top four-seater, the 220 SE Cabriolet of the model series W 111 was introduced in 1961, after the "Ponton" cabriolets 220 S (W 180) and 220 SE (W 128) that were produced from 1956 to 1960. Its design is widely regarded as classic even now. The 220 SE, 250 SE, 300 SE (W 112), 280 SE, and the eight-cylinder 280 SE 3.5 were the five models produced by Mercedes-Benz in this model series throughout the ten-year manufacturing era. A total of 7013 units of these cabriolets were made in Sindelfingen. It was the new SL from model series 107, which debuted in 1971 and continued the history of open-top driving in the Stuttgart brand's cars—as a two-seater—rather than any open-top luxury-segment vehicle that followed this generation in the Mercedes-Benz model line. Due to their enduring popularity, Mercedes-Benz cabriolets have seen significant price appreciation in recent years. The beloved American Hagerty Insurance pricing guide cites the valuations of the Cabriolets from model series 111 as an example of this. Approximately 280,000 USD is the current worth it assigns to a 280 SE 3.5 from 1971, the last year of manufacture, in condition 2, compared to roughly 115,000 USD a decade earlier. However, it is far from the highest point: in August of last year, RM Auctions sold a pristine example of this model for $429,000 USD. Hagerty now places a value on the final six-cylinder 280 SE model from 1969 that is in same condition at about. $75,000 compared to $45,000 a decade earlier. Valued at about 84,000 USD now, early 220 SE vehicles are roughly around the same level.

I am confidently going to install 10 and 15mm on my vehicle. Be sure that they are centric, meaning that there is room on the hub for the wheel to attach to the centre ring. Don't stress about 2mm; no one else will notice or know. Try out several models and adjust the studs, pitch, rim size, offset, and jj to your liking. Specifications for wheels and tyre sizes for all BMW models By comparing the old and new, as well as their positions on the rim and hub, this one is fantastic. Tyre and Alloy Wheel Fitment Estimator. Will They Fit? Offset, Tyre Stretch, and Speedo Error This one is for testing the compatibility of your geometry with the new wheel.

The bolt diameters of the e and f series wheels are different; I have never used either size before; perhaps this is an issue, but I am not sure. despite the fact that I once attempted to attach an e-series bolt to an f-series, and the bolt ended up in the wheel's alloy bolt hole; perhaps I was exaggerating the situation.

Good day, everyone. Coming soon, I will have an F25 X3 35d M Sport with 20 310M tires and runflats. I could like the design even if I despise the ride quality (no adaptable suspension). Staggered set of E83 standard 191M alloys; front-to-back offset is 8 mm, rear-to-back is 3 mm; so, the 191Ms would fit within the arches (although, I'm not sure whether the distance between the hub and the arch is the same for E83 and F25—anyone?). With 10 mm up front and 5 mm behind, all four would sit 2 mm apart from regular wheels. Is it okay to use shims here? If the offset is 2 mm off-center, it should still appear OK. The weight rating on the 191Ms should be OK since the E83 and F25 are almost identical in weight. The refurbisher has assured me that I will receive the right bolt length, M14s, and that the head will fit the 191Ms. I need persuading on this, so any advise would be fantastic. Safety first, of course. Are the bolts on shims really so lengthy and potentially dangerous? Yours truly. I have reserved the refurbed alloys, therefore this is a serious inquiry. I had planned to mount (BMW-starred) Bridgestone Turanza 6 XLoad tires on it. Best regards

For kicks, I wanted to know what the EV3 motor voltage was, so I asked Gemini AI. Based on its findings, we may deduce the following: "The traction battery of the Kia EV3 Air Long Range (81.4 kWh) runs on a 400V architecture with the following particular voltage specifications:“ Voltage Nominal: 343 V Battery Setup: 279 individual cells Maximum Charging Power: 128 kilowatts Essential Battery Details in a Snap Characteristics Detailing The battery has a gross capacity of 81.4 kWh.

Because of this, the automobile may be kept at a more reasonable price while yet being able to charge from 10% to 80% in around 31 minutes using a suitable quick charger. Would you want me to compare this model to the Standard Range or investigate how long it takes to charge it at home?

After searching online for "OEM BMW suspension sensors," I received Several prominent automobile companies provide Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) suspension sensors for BMW. The main suppliers are Continental/VDO, Bosch, Tenneco (Monroe), and ZF (Lemforder/Sachs). When it comes to ride height/level sensors, Continental VDO is a common supplier. Both Aerosus and Arnott provide other, equally good substitutes. Tenneco (via their Continuously Controlled Electronic Suspension system) and Continental (a ZF trademark) are common names for electronic damper control (EDC) and acceleration sensors. Find a brand name when you know the apart number. I don't believe AI or Google are perfect, but you're absolutely correct that the BMW box was overpriced.
