DESIGN
THE EXTERIOR AND INTERIOR DESIGN OF THE BMW 8 SERIES CONVERTIBLE
Individual choice is the most attractive form of luxury: the extensive range of equipment options for the exterior and interior of the BMW 8 Series Convertible enables a variety of configurations. Unconventional ways of exploring autonomous sportiness and expressing individual.
- Exterior
- Interior
BMW Laserlight
In laser high-beam mode, BMW Laserlight illuminates a range of up to 600 m, nearly twice as far as that of conventional headlights. Better visibility in the dark significantly increases safety. Blue accents and the lettering "BMW Laser" in the headlight also underline the technological standards and the sportiness of the vehicle.
Innovative anthracite soft top with silver effect
The anthracite soft top with silver effect blends harmoniously into the dynamic lines of the vehicle. At the push of a button, it opens and closes electrically in approximately 15 seconds, even while driving at speeds of up to 50 km/h. One of the outstanding properties of this high-quality soft top is its excellent noise insulation.
Active Air Stream kidney grille
The Active Air Stream kidney grille opens and closes the air vents in the radiator grille according to the cooling requirements of the engine, the brakes and the air conditioning. At the same time, the system’s movable slats reduce air resistance when closed, thereby improving aerodynamics.
Front apron
The M Sport front apron with spoiler lip enhances the sporty, dynamic impression and improves the car’s aerodynamics. The airflow is directed to the outer sides of the front wheels through the openings. The emerging air curtain prevents turbulences in the area of the wheelhouses and therefore reduces the air resistance.
Exterior mirrors
The exterior mirrors with aspherical lenses are electrically adjustable as well as heatable and have an electric folding function. The two-tone mirror-casing is optically integrated into the side window slot and supports the elegant, sporty design of the vehicle.
M light alloy wheels 728 M
20’’ M light alloy wheels Y-spoke style 728 M Bicolour jet black with performance tyres and mixed tyres, burnished, wheel size front 8J x 20 with 245/35 R20 tyres, rear 9J x 20 with 275/30 R20 tyres.
Multifunction seats for driver and front passenger
The Multifunction seats for driver and front passenger offer comprehensive adjustment possibilities and exceptional seating comfort and safety. This way, the seats can be optimally adapted to personal requirements by an electric backrest width adjustment, a variable lumbar support and a manual seat depth adjustment.
Air collar
The Air collar ensures comfort when driving by pleasantly providing warmth for the head and shoulders. When the roof is open, the warming system integrated into the front seat headrests is automatically regulated based on the speed and outside temperature. Three different temperature levels can also be personally selected.
Ambient light
Through numerous LED lights, the ambient light produces a pleasant lighting mood in the interior and a special sense of space in the dark. Colours, brightness and colour scenarios can be adjusted individually. The equipment includes contour and map pocket lighting as well as light guides in the centre console.
'CraftedClarity' glass application
The 'CraftedClarity' glass application comprises hand-made glass elements that visually and tactilely enhance the interior. The details of the gear selector, iDrive Controller and Start/Stop button are made of fine crystal.
Bowers & Wilkins Diamond surround sound system.
The Bowers & Wilkins Diamond surround sound system with three diamond tweeters and an output of 1,125 W features outstanding studio-quality sound for every seat in the car. Twelve carefully positioned speakers ensure a mesmerising sound experience. The speakers are illuminated, visually emphasizing the system's outstanding sound quality.
PERFORMANCE
DRIVETRAIN AND CHASSIS TECHNOLOGIES OF THE BMW 8 SERIES CONVERTIBLE
The BMW 8 Series Convertible inspires with the full array of dynamics features and the agility of an ambitious sports car. The high-performance BMW TwinPower Turbo eight-cylinder petrol engine, the high-precision Integral Active Steering and the Adaptive M suspension are just some of the cutting-edge drive and chassis components that interact perfectly to transport the driver into a new dimension of emotion-packed driving dynamics.
BMW TwinPower Turbo 8-cylinder petrol engine
The BMW TwinPower Turbo 8-cylinder petrol engine combines two turbochargers with Valvetronic fully variable valve control and the direct petrol injection High-Precision Injection. Its peak output is 390 kW (530 hp) with a maximum torque of 750 Nm. The two turbochargers are compactly positioned between the cylinder banks.
Adaptive M suspension
The adaptive M suspension makes it possible to adjust the damper characteristics to suit any given driving situation, increasing driving dynamics and comfort. In addition to the standard COMFORT setting for increased driving comfort, the SPORT program offers more direct damper settings.
BMW xDrive
The intelligent BMW xDrive all-wheel drive system smoothly and variably distributes drive power to the front and rear wheels for maximum traction, driving dynamics and safety in every driving situation. The innovative networking with all lateral dynamics control functions of the vehicle allows an arrangement from traction-oriented to maximal sporty driving dynamics.
Integral Active Steering
Integral Active Steering combines support that varies based on the steering angle on the front axle, and rear wheels that also contribute to steering. At lower speeds, it offers greater manoeuvrability and agility by turning the rear wheels opposite the front wheels. Beginning around 60 to 80 km/h, the rear wheels turn parallel to the front wheels, to increase driving stability and comfort.
Sport exhaust system
The standard Sport exhaust system offers a powerful and sporty sound that can be adapted to the driving situation and the driver’s wishes. This makes the ride an emotional hearing experience, especially during sporty riding.
M sport differential
The M sport differential optimises traction and driving stability when changing lanes or accelerating out of a bend, when taking bends at high speeds or on different road surfaces. Traction is optimised with the help of an electronically operated device that reduces the difference in revolution speed between the rear wheels.
