Jim O'Donnell, jefe de BMW USA, ha usado estos calificativos para describir el proximo serie 6 (F12 coupe/F13 cabrio diseñado por Adrian van Hooydonk) que presentaran en el salon de Ginebra en marzo 2011 reconoce que el diseño del actual serie 6 ha sido muy polemico por su "terminacion bangleriana" tambien dice que presentaran el nuevo serie 5 F10 en el salon de ginebra 2010 2009 FRANKFURT MOTOR SHOW: BMW's North American chief on the next 6-series | Auto Shows Blog & Discussion at Automobile Magazine The "best-looking BMW in years" says U.S. chief On the eve of the Frankfurt Motor Show, BMW North American chief Jim O’Donnell tells Automobile Magazine that the next 6-series coupe and convertible will be radically different from the current cars’ styling. “In my opinion,” says O’Donnell, “the next 6-series is the best-looking car that BMW has done in years. It’s really stunning.” O’Donnell further states that the current 6-series is very “polarizing” due to it “really having a Bangle butt.” The new 6-series, which we’ll likely see in 1.5 years at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show in March 2011 is, on the other hand, “super sleek.” Designed under the direction of Chris Bangle’s successor, Adrian van Hooydonk, the next-generation 6-series will retain the general size of the current car but clearly will be considerably more svelte looking. In other future-product news, O’Donnell confirmed that the new 5-series will be shown at the 2010 Geneva Show next March. ¿sera algo parecido a esto? fotos espia aqui un render
segun bmwblog,no abra capota de lona para el cabrio ](*,), solo techo duro retractil ](*,), y los siguientes motores: gasolina 6L biturbo 326cv V8 biturbo 407cv diesel 6L triturbo 354cv hibrido V8 biturbo 455cv ¿habra M6 V8 biturbo 550cv ? the new model will receive the hardtop as seen in the BMW 3 Series Convertible and the soft top will NOT be an option. The bodystyle has been designed to accommodate the hardtop, so no raised up rear-end. The headlights will resemble in some ways the ones from the CS Concept, which is good news for the die hard CS fans. We also expect a larger than usual front-grille, a trend seen in the latest models. As we mentioned many times before, the current engines are here to stay. The award winning twin-turbo 6-cylinder will power one of the entry levels models with its 326 horsepower, while the V8 twin-turbo 407 horsepower engine found in the new 7 Series will be found in the higher-end models. Diesel fans have not been forgotten and the 6-cylinder diesel found currently in the 635d will “stick” around. The 354 horsepower Tri-Turbo 6-cylinder diesel is a great candidate for the new models as well. BMW will also offer a 655 model, a hybrid version using the same technology as the upcoming BM X6 Hybrid and 7 Series Hybrid. The 2011 BMW 6 Series will use the latest 8-speed transmission as well as the 7-speed DCT one. To make the 6er appeal eve more to car enthusiasts, a new damping system will offer four different sport settings from Comfort right through to Performance , including an option for efficient performance. BMW Efficient Dynamics will play its role in the 2011 6 Series by utilizing the Start-Stop and Brake Energy Regeneration technologies. The next BMW 6 Series will launch at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2011.
