The Ultimate Driving Machine BMW Lifestyle 2014/2015
INSPIRED BY DESIGN.
DRIVEN BY INNOVATION.
THE NEW MOBILITY.
ENGINEERED TO PERFECTION.
Keeping up with the times sometimes requires adopting a whole new approach. Especially when it comes to innovations to tackle the challenges of day-to-day mobility. BMW has now come up with a clever solution that is perfectly crafted: the new BMW Cruise e-Bike. The BMW Cruise e-Bike gives you tailwind to order. It provides electrical support just when you ask for it. In doing so it combines the speed of a motorised vehicle with the benefits of a bicycle. While others are stuck in traffic jams, you can sail by effortlessly with electrical support up to 25 km/h – allowing you to enjoy the thrills of city life and keep pace.How the new BMW Cruise e-Bike works.
The BMW Cruise e-Bike is fitted with an electric motor, but the electrical support is not activated until you start to pedal. The motor adapts to the pedalling power exerted by the rider and you can select the right level of support for every type of terrain. Since it has a built-in speed restriction and the motor output is limited to 250 W, the BMW Cruise e-Bike is classified as a pedelec: this means it does not require insurance, a number plate or a helmet.

CONCENTRATED EXPERTISE.
FOR EVEN GREATER EFFICIENCY.
Sustainable efficiency is not just about doing everything yourself: it’s also a matter of recognising the expertise of others and putting it to optimum use for your own purposes. This is the case with the new BMW Cruise e-Bike. The powerful system made by BOSCH is combined with the long-standing know-how of BMW – a true partnership of expertise. The result is outstanding technology that is always user-friendly.
The 400 Wh battery also promises easy handling: it is simple to mount and dismount using the key. It charges in just 3.5 hours, with 50 % charge progress being reached within 90 minutes due to the fast charging mode. When fully charged the range is around 100 km, though this will vary according to the setting selected. It is constantly recalculated during travel so you always know how far you have left with electrical support.
