Gallery: Audi A8 2010 VS Audi A8 2013 - what's new?

Hey Guys

When driving a Facelifted model, the Audi A8 2013, then why not driving to the closest Audi Dealer and take a Picture with a "current" model, the Audi A8 2010. And as it's more than appropriate I went to Audi Zentrum Neuss (Thanks again!) and shot these Pictures. They show the "then" and "now" soo good..

Hey Guys

Finally BMW is launching their first all-electric volume-production Car! They will start the delivery of the in Leipzig, Germany, built Car up from November. The first i3 will be handed over to german customers, then other countries and after those customers are happy customers and i3 owners some Cars will be added to the worldwide DriveNow Carsharing-fleets (Munich, San Francisco, …)

Last Friday I was able to jump behind the steering-wheel of a BMW i3 during the international press-launch in Amsterdam among other Journalists and Bloggers. You might have already seen my snapshots on Facebook or Instagram, or already the huge Galleries of the orange and silver ones my co-driver from bmwblog.com and I shared.

But now let's go over to the important thing: the Car!

10 Tips for good visibility to avoid ‘sun-dazzle'

Dazzling sun in autumn


Hey Guys

Unfortunately we have to face it: Summer is over and with Autumn and Winter knocking on our doors the dark time of the year has just arrived.

The risk of dazzling sun is particularly high during October, as sunset occurs earlier and increasingly coincides with rush-hour traffic. The sun’s low position in the sky, combined with damper road surface conditions, poses a considerable problem for commuters and dirty, greasy or scratched windscreens reduce visibility and compound the problem, particularly during autumn.

BMW i3 Harman Kardon hi-fi system Video

BMW i3 Sound System

Hey Guys

Almost one year ago, after driving the Opel ADAM with the Infinity Sound System, I thought that I found the maximum of sound quality in the segment of small Cars. But then the BMW i3 came with its Harman Kardon system and yes, I was so blown away by its super super great sound quality and the ambiance it creates inside the Car!

So I made this little Video for you to experience the sound quality as well. The Harman Kardon hi-fi system features a 360-watt 7-channel amplifier (5 x 40 W, 2 x 80 W) in combination with 13 speakers and DSP technology. All the speakers are inside a high quality expanded metal grille and they are located: 2 tweeters in A-pillar panel, above.- 1x midrange on the instrument panel.- 1x tweeters in the dashboard.- 2 midrange in door trims, front.- 2 midrange in door panels, rear.- 2 tweeters in the door panels, rear.- 2 bass speakers A pillar, bottom.

The Harman Kardon System is not equipped in the base model and so you need to add 800, - € to your equipment list before ordering. The Price is for the german market including all taxes, exclude them the price is at 672,27 €.

Gallery: BMW i3 Silver-Grey

Hey Guys

After Pictures of the orange BMW i3 that I've been able to drive on Friday here some (~60) Pictures of the silver BMW i3 with the grey interior.

The weather conditions were finally better - no rain, yay - and besides the Pictures next to this red thing in Alsmeer with the water in the background I really like the ones taken close to a canal in Amsterdam next to the E30 which is more or less a "predecessor" of the current i3. I hope I found the right perspectives to demonstrate you that the i3 is still a REAL BMW and both ones still kinda look-alike!

And besides both Cars I'm looking forward to you opinion about the new Design here with a better focus on Pictures, bigger Pictures! Feel free to share your Opinion below (you can even comment as "Anonymous"..)
