In ancient times, sweat and blood BMW could “travel thousands of miles every day and eight hundred at night”. Generally speaking, the top speed of a horse is about 150 kilometers per day, or no more than 200 kilometers at most. The fastest speed of the sweaty BMW was 43000 kilometers in 84 days. It is estimated that it takes only 1 minute and 07 seconds for BMW to run 1000 meters on flat ground. I believe the BMW 540i should be worthy of the title.

I am post-80s, just after this calendar year, I originally wanted to give myself a gift in this calendar year, realized the dream of white clouds and blue sky, did not expect to buy a car winding twists and turns, from the middle of last year to this year. I remember that the import standard axis had only been on the market for a few months at that time. I also know very well what kind of car I want, and there is no requirement for space in the back. I can count the number of passengers in the Audi A6L, which I have been driving for more than five years. So this time, we only look at the imported standard axes of BMW, without any other ideas. Seeing that there are many friends in the group who struggle with the long axis or the standard axis, I advise Feng that the tangled friends should buy the long axis directly, which can’t be wrong, because the friends who buy the standard axis never think about the long axis. So I booked a car in November 2017. Due to budget problems, I customized the 530I, but I was not willing to do it. I kept thinking about the 540I, thinking that the quintessence of BMW is straight-line six-cylinder plus rear-drive, just like Audi V6 supercharged + all-wheel drive. The salesman told me to pick up the car in March. Unexpectedly, the stock market just improved a little after the end of the year, and suddenly it plummeted like a broken kite, and the money that I had planned to buy a car was also deeply embedded, resulting in a full loss of a small third series. The plan to pick up the car in March also fell through, and the deposit of 10,000 yuan was lost. I would like to advise you to cherish your life and stay away from the stock market. If I have a chance to come out this time, I will never touch it again.

Until the spring blossoms in April this year, I happened to have a chance to accompany my friends to see the car and test-drive a long-axle 540LI. When I stepped on the throttle, the speed went straight up to 140. adrenaline skyrocketed. Thinking that the sense of acceleration of the imported standard axis will only be better, so Li silently made a wish: do not buy unless 540I. I have tried driving 530LI before. If a friend asks me, what is the biggest difference? Configuration aside, a foot throttle down, 530 speed up to 120 or so buffer will continue to go up, 540 is directly about 140-160, at the same time the sound of the engine is completely different. BMW’s in-line six-cylinder engine is delightful and enjoyable. So the psychology suffered like long grass, and the emperor lived up to his heart. In June, the state suddenly lowered the tariff on imported cars, and the official guide price dropped by more than 60,000. In addition, the income in the first half of the year was good, so I couldn’t wait to come to the 4s store to book a car the next day. Taurus I have the characteristics of a Virgo, I can also buy a car, I can wait, but I can never make do with it, so I still make a customization. Choose your favorite color stone cyan, NAPPA black seats, as well as ceramic accessories, ventilation seats, remote parking assistance (otherwise too sorry for this LCD key). Finally, when I picked up the car in September, the whole car was sold to me 13 points cheaper (not an option), without any QJ. At the same time, I bought an official extended guarantee to buy a car for a year. The small maintenance of the 4S store is free for life. The most cost-effective place is that the small maintenance cost can be deducted when the major maintenance is carried out. It is calculated inside and outside that it is more than 100 thousand cheaper than before the tariff reduction. Landing less than 700000 can buy all configurations like the BMW in-line six-cylinder five-series, the performance-to-price ratio should be very high.

Back to the point, before changing cars, I drove A6L (C7). I bought it in 13 years, and the last car was A6L (C6). I bought it in 2008. Both generations are V6 self-priming. My head is also in the water, the same series of cars continue to drive, really in line with the characteristics of Taurus; single-minded! Overall, the A6L is a good car. Especially when running at high speed, it is really stable. Overtaking is also very powerful after the speed is up, and I have never encountered the phenomenon of burning engine oil. There are still some minor defects, but it can still be tolerated, once the motor of the fuel tank cap is broken, and the other time the coolant circulating pump is broken, it has been replaced free of charge during the warranty period, and there are no major defects, but it is still a very worry-free car on the whole.

The BMW 540i has driven less than 1000 kilometers so far, although it is not deep driving, but its temperament is basically clear. Below, I would like to summarize the advantages and disadvantages, mainly compare it with the Audi A6L, and give some advice and advice to those who are about to buy it:

Power and fuel consumption: there is nothing wrong with saying that he is a sweaty BMW. Beneath a gentle appearance lies a grumpy heart, 340 horsepower and 450 torque. The throttle clicks the speed to get up, although it is turbocharged, it is very linear, and the acceleration is very smooth. There is no sudden feeling, and it goes up to more than 100 before you know it. At a time when the throttle of a new car has never exceeded 1/3, the credit is of course due to the perfect match between BMW’s classic in-line six cylinders and ZF’s 8AT. I believe that the traffic lights and the next car can have a 95% chance of winning. See the 718 low-equipped can also be a little abuse. Don’t be afraid to see the eldest brother 730740, as long as you are willing to step on the gas pedal, you should easily do them. Here the acceleration is not compared with the A6L, the positioning is different, there is no comparability. In terms of fuel consumption, I believe that friends who are willing to buy 540 will certainly not focus on it, but not thinking about it does not mean that they do not care. Now they basically commute 1000 kilometers to work, with an average fuel consumption of 11.6. My route to work is Beijing Houshayu to Jingcheng Expressway, turn to Fifth Ring Road, turn to G7, and then Houchang Village Road to Xier Banner. It can be said to be half of the highway, half of the city. To be honest, I am quite satisfied with the fuel consumption. Before, the average fuel consumption of A6L 2.5 self-priming was about 10. I believe that the average fuel consumption should be reduced to about 10 after the opening of the 540, especially after the first insurance.
2 manipulation: an amazing word, a synonym for a BMW, to be honest, it feels a little bit to change the BMW. It is true that the perception of manipulation is a little different, but you have to describe the words that people and cars are in one, which means where to hit and which to play. I’m sorry, I really don’t feel that big. Compared with the A6L, it lacks a sense of weight and a little less empty position in the steering wheel, but there is still a feeling that there is less inclination when turning the corner, and it is more convenient to turn around. I really don’t have the amazing feeling of manipulation. Maybe this generation of BMW five-Series sacrificed some of its maneuverability for comfort.
3 comfort: due to the delicate NAPPA leather seats, multiple seat adjustments and the wrapping of the flanks, it can always be adjusted to a comfortable sitting position. Coupled with the standard shaft suspension adjustment partial movement, shock absorber is relatively hard relative to the long shaft, the chassis is not loose, the vehicle mass weight loss is more, creating a strong sense of integrity, driving without a trace of procrastination. In addition, this generation of five-series mute is really good, the car is still very comfortable to drive, compared with the A6L, the driving fun is a little more, the body is much lighter, and I feel that I am getting younger, hehe!
4 space: because it is a standard wheelbase, I adjust the seat to a comfortable position when driving, and the back space appears to be in a hurry. I tried to sit in the back row. The legroom is very small, and the remaining space is up to one punch. It can’t be compared with the Li long wheelbase. It’s just enough, but it’s comfortable to sit. For me, with a family of three, my wife takes the copilot, the children sit in the back seat, and there is a spare A6L at home. The back seat space is really not important to me. The same sentence: once you struggle with the long axis or the standard axis, or more or less care about the back row space, you can’t go wrong with the long axis. The imported standard axis is only suitable for people who care more about handling and driving fun. Finally, the last thing I want to complain about is the trunk space, even if it is small, the bottom is sunken again, which feels much smaller than the A6L. There is to buy the trunk cushion do not buy the long axis, do not quite match, the trunk depth of the short axis will be 4pm 5cm more than the long shaft.
5 optional: undoubtedly chose the stone cyan, NAPPA black seat, so that it appears to be athletic. At the same time, ceramic accessories are selected to enhance the feel and interior texture, and it is not easy to produce scratches for a long time. The only disadvantage is that the fingerprint collector needs to be wiped frequently. Seat ventilation who uses who knows, summer must be equipped with cooler, conditions must be selected, the hottest summer can give you a trace of coolness. What I want to talk about most is the remote parking assist function, which is absolutely equipped with an X artifact. It would be a pity if the LCD key is not installed. Its function is to use the LCD key to ignite directly outside the car and control the vehicle forward or backward remotely. If one day someone stops too close to you, you can’t open the driving door, this function is absolutely easy to use. Of course, the effect of installing X is far greater than the actual function. Someone asked me why I didn’t choose the enhanced driving assistance and active cruise control system, which are optional for people who don’t like to drive long distances. In the end, the most important point is that personalized customization sales will tell you to wait half a year, in fact, the time is not that long. I ordered the car in late June, the quota in July, and the car was mentioned on September 20. It takes only three months. As long as there is a quota, it will not take too long. Those who are not in a hurry to use a car can really choose and customize a car they like. After all, buy a car and drive it for at least five or six years.

Fortunately, the car is 2019, the dashboard LCD is a whole, unlike the previous one, I don’t like it very much. Of course, it is also simply equipped with some things, such as the plating of the door handle is gone, the decoration of fog lamp plating is also cancelled, and nothing else has changed. By the way, the most important point is that the key is simply equipped with a liquid crystal, a blade and an iron key film. There is no dispute that the emission standard is still national five. According to the sales, the 540i has suspended taking orders until February next year, so all the cars sold now are in stock or on the way, and I don’t know if they are true or false.

The interconnected driver downloaded APP:BMW Cloud Interconnection the next day and registered. After passing the real name verification, China Unicom will generate a confirmation code and send a text message to confirm that the confirmation code will be given to the 4s store to sell the car to you. Generally, the 4S store will report to BMW China at the end of the month. The progress of opening depends on when the 4s store will report the confirmation code to BMW’s China headquarters. Generally, it will be opened in about one month. If you haven’t opened it for more than a month, call BMW where the after-sales card is in China. Either Unicom’s real name verification did not pass, or your sales did not report the CAPTCHA to the headquarters, only for these two reasons. It can be found in the after-sales phone number APP.
But it is strange that the APP main page lacks two functional modules: “immediate ventilation” and “pre-departure air conditioning / ventilation timer”. Are there any riders who encounter such a problem?

Finally, welcome friends imported from Beijing 540i to join the VX group, you can talk freely, and interested friends can trust me privately.
