In automatic mode, the control function performs gearshifts very smoothly and time them for
ideal fuel consumption.
Not exact matches
4WD systems increase powertrain mass, rotational inertia and power transmission losses, resulting in a reduction in performance in
ideal dry conditions and increased
fuel consumption compared to 2WD designs
While the BMW i3 is the
ideal solution for urban and suburban mobility, future plug - in hybrid drive systems will allow
fuel consumption and emissions to be steadily reduced in long - distance operation as well.
This setting is
ideal for a relaxed driving style, as well as offering tremendous potential for effectively lowering
fuel consumption, and therefore emissions too.
With its low
fuel consumption it is an
ideal car for the high mileage user.
Aerodynamics is becoming increasingly important as a development discipline as, in addition to being crucial with respect to safety, an
ideal airflow around the vehicle has a major influence on
fuel consumption (also see page 87) and noise levels.
This aerodynamic performance contributes to impressively low wind noise, aids
fuel consumption and strong high - speed stability and, of course, is vital in ensuring
ideal handling balance through optimising drag and lift forces.
Under
ideal conditions, the engine always runs with its lowest
fuel consumption.
While the
ideal in regard to energy and the environment would be greatly reduced energy generation and
consumption, replacement of fossil -
fuelled electricity by renewables like wind is next best.
