BMW 325i (E92)
BMW 3 series 2006 3.0 petrol description
Coupe BMW 325i has been produced from January, 2007 to December, 2010. It has six-cylinder petrol engine with displacement of 3.0 litres, which produces power of 218 horsepower on 6100 rpm and torque 270 Nm (Newton metres).
BMW 325i has AWD (all wheel drive) (power is automatically distributed between the wheel axles) and manual gearbox with 6 gears. BMW xDrive is a proactive all-wheel drive system without a center differential that engages before the vehicle becomes destabilized, unnoticed by the driver. Torque is distributed between the axles by an electronically controlled multi-plate clutch in the transfer case. The clutch is partially locked most of the time, distributing power to both axles in a 40/60 front/rear ratio, but the system is capable of sending 100% of the torque to either axle. At high speeds or when parking, for example, the clutch is disengaged and all power is sent to the rear wheels. DSC (Dynamic Stability Control) also brakes the wheels individually to regain traction and assist in cornering.
BMW 325i accelerates to speed 100 kilometres per hour in 7.2 seconds. The maximum speed of this car is 246 km/h.
In combined cycle (city and motorway), the BMW 325i fuel consumption is 8.1 litres per 100km (12.3 km/l), fuel consumption in city - 11 l/100km, highway fuel economy - 6.4 l/100km.
