2011 AC Schnitzer 99d Review

AC Schnitzer Concept 99d produces only 99g/km of CO2 - which is nothing less than the standard vehicle BMW currently available.

And this in spite of riding pleasure is guaranteed with 190 hp / 140 kW. Electrifying 99d accelerates from 0-100 in 6.9 seconds and a top speed of 235 km / h - all the sporting genes of the car, in fact, true AC Schnitzer. And the fuel consumption of just 3.8 liters of diesel per 100 kilometers.

So how does this Concept Car AC Schnitzer can reach these low figures? AC Schnitzer calls the combination of characteristics of effective implementation.

"Joy is the driving force!" This applies not only to BMW engineers, but also - and above all - for setting the AC Schnitzer specialists.

Diesel engine and the corresponding transmission

Diesel engine for the BMW Z4, and the most effective currently available for BMW. EfficientDynamics is 320D. And now, of course, performance is optimized experts Aachen 190 hp and 420 Nm of torque (Standard Edition EfficientDynamics 320D: 163 HP).

230 kg weight gain

The elegant cut light shows what is technically possible today. The energy source for example, is a lightweight lithium ion battery instead of the usual lead accumulator. The use of lighter materials like carbon, magnesium and titanium, made further significant savings in equipment interiors. So it's easier than any current BMW series.

Reducing the weight of the unsprung mass

Weight 35 kg less than those directly connected to the wheels, tires and brakes, resulting in a significant increase in agility and driving pleasure. The latest techniques of forging material strength to ensure that the aerospace and weight gain unsurpassed. For example, the AC Schnitzer lightweight four-pot brake system with high performance retraction system for the front axle and brake discs on the front light and rear axle to ensure shorter braking distances.

Or type VIII from a single piece of high strength forged wheels used in the AC Schnitzer 99D. These weigh only 7.9 kg per wheel and connected to the vehicle wheel nuts titanium. Experts say that measures to reduce unsprung weight has a lead of up to four times the weight gain. This means that, in terms of agility, AC Schnitzer 99d feels like a vehicle that weighs 335 kg less comprehensive.

Special Eco-Continental tires

The Continental tire size 225/35 blueco * 19 was a particular concept in connection with AC Schnitzer. These tires to optimize rolling resistance. The design is an evolution of 5P Conti Sport Contact, and allows you to drive with its sporty cornering stability and ZR speed above 240 km / h.

Adaptation of EfficientDynamics

Behind BMW EfficientDynamics concept is a set of technologies of intelligent action, which significantly reduce fuel consumption and emissions. These technologies of the BMW 320d has been incorporated in the AC Schnitzer 99d: start-stop automatic recovery of braking energy, change display speed, low-friction lubricants and active aerodynamics.

Improved aerodynamics

Bin reduced to 30 mm, together with several AC Schnitzer carbon aerodynamic parts, reduces friction. AC Schnitzer racing suspension with adjustable dampers to reduce the residual spring travel to sports, but still a comfortable level, especially when driving at low speeds.

Reduced friction

Special ceramic bearings to achieve a decisive reduction in friction resistance. In addition, by minimizing the optimization of low friction friction lubricants. The high performance braking system is equipped with a special retraction PFC, which after a slow down, pulling the brake pads with brake discs 0.1 mm. The wheels of the AC Schnitzer 99d turn much easier.

Driving pleasure

Individuality, exclusiveness, modern construction and lightweight, and more than 20 years of refinement resulted in the AC Schnitzer 99d of a vehicle that perfectly combines the fuel consumption and driving pleasure: the efficient performance of AC Schnitzer.

Of course, all the security features remain, such as ABS, airbags and ESP. World media also does not interfere with the vehicle integrated Apple's iPhone 4. This allows access to all data on-board computer. So the fuel consumption, for example, or a function of particle filters can be controlled. Music, telephone, navigation, hands-free or via the Internet complete the overall experience of AC Schnitzer 99d.
