The BMW 135i coupe, new for 2008, is powered by a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine that produces 306 horsepower and 300 lb-ft of torque from as low as 1,400 rpm. With its direct piezo gasoline injectors, twin low-mass turbochargers and air-to-air intercooling, optimum performance and economy is achieved with no loss in engine response. The 135i Coupe is capable of accelerating from 0-62 mph in 5.3 seconds and the top speed is electronically limited to 155 mph.

The leather appointments on the gearshift lever and handbrake, as well as the handbrake handle are finished in high-quality soft leather.

The roof lining on the M Sports Package comes in Anthracite, and the interior features offered in this package are rounded off by Glacier Silver aluminum interior trim that highlights the sporting character of the cockpit. The BMW 135i Coupe M Sports Suspension also comes with a high-performance brake system incorporating six-piston fixed calipers on the front axle and two-piston fixed calipers at the rear.

BMW 1 Series CoupeThe BMW 1 Series Coupe benefits from BMW’s brake and stability control systems. Standard ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) and ASC (Automatic Stability Control) prevent the drive wheels from spinning while CBC (Cornering Brake Control) stabilizes the car whenever necessary during application of the brakes in a bend.

How refreshing! This is a super fun topic to read, and even sip! Who says trucks and truck equipment is the only important topic? By golly,
what’s your brand, what tastes best, is important to all of us.
Thanks to Pilot and to Fleet Owner for reminding us of the simpler topics of interest to truck operators.
Thanks,
