BMW M5 F10


 BMW M5 F10 

BMW's 4.4-litre V8 lurks beneath the long bonnet and, courtesy of the Competition Pack, has a small power bump to 423 kW and 680 Nm of torque. The V8 is direct-injected and has two twin scroll turbos to make all that go. 
This is also the first M engine to use BMW's Valvetronic technology. The same engine is found in the X6 M but in the M5 has a higher compression ratio and higher turbo boost pressure.
The claimed fuel economy is 9.9 litres per 100km, and while we saw closer to 13.5, this is quite an achievement given all the power on tap and how much we indulged in it.
Handling the power's transfer to the road is a seven-speed DCT, driving the rear wheels only. Between the rear wheels is the fabled M Differential, which changes behaviour based on the drive mode selected with the iDrive controller. The M diff is electronically controlled and incredibly complicated, but it is of the limited slip variety and one of the most effective understeer-killers known to man.
DRIVING
The M5 has always been blindingly fast and the F10 just raises the bar yet again. This is the fifth generation of BMW's sports sedan and as the years go by it is getting more refined but also far more of a weapon.
The delightfully nuts V10-powered E60 M5 was much lamented at the F10's launch. The E60 itself was decried as the End of M because you couldn't get a manual, but everyone soon forgot about that. (BMW relented and let the Americans have one).
Likewise everyone has forgotten about the fact that there isn't a bellowing V10 revving to 8250 rpm under the bonnet, because the S63 V8 has every one of its 680 Nm available from just 1500 rpm.

V16 ENGINE

V16 ENGINE A  V16 engine  is a  V engine  with 16  cylinders . Engines of this number of cylinders are uncommon in automotive use. A V16 engine is perfectly balanced, so long as its constituent  straight 8  banks are balanced, regardless of the V angle. That is to say, it does not require contra-rotating  balancing shafts  which are necessary to balance engines with odd numbers of cylinders in-line or those equipped with counterweighted crankshafts like the 90°  V8 . In addition V angles of 45° and 135° give an impulse every 45°, so are optimal solutions, for  even-firing  and non-split bearing  crankshaft   journals . V16 engines are rarely used in automobiles because V8s or  V12s  of the same  displacement  typically produce just as much power, and are much less expensive to manufacture and maintain. The few V16s that have been produced were used in high-end luxury and high-perfor...

[5] Work [ edit ] Kahn, who has been crowned 'The King of customisation' by the automotive magazine,  Autocar , pulled out of architecture to pursue his love for cars. [6] In 1996, Kahn designed the RS-R alloy wheel. The design, in which the spokes gave the appearance of continuing all the way to the rim was considered a first in the industry. Using capital derived from the initial sold-out production run of 1,000 RS-R wheels, Kahn founded A. Kahn Design in Bradford, West Yorkshire in the late 1990s. [7]  Kahn continued in the role of creative dir...
