Palabras de los políticos: estamos trabajando en ello.
Pensamiento de los políticos: búscate la vida.
Quieren imitar a los paises del norte en lo que les da las gana. Aquí en Gijón dentro de lo que cabe hay bastante puestos de recarga tanto en zonas céntricas como en gasolineras pero en por ejemplo Oviedo, oriente de asturias no hay gran cosa. Así que o se gastan la pasta aún para instalar el punto de recarga en casa o no se como se arreglarán

 

Dios proveerá.

 

Bueno, yo dudo que no haya ni un palmo del suelo urbano sin cables de línea eléctrica subterráneos. Lo de cargar es tan fácil como colocar un cargador al lado de cada aparcamiento señalado en la vía pública. En zona rural, como siempre, irá todo más lento.

De verdad que yo no veo problema en infraestructura. Si quieren, pueden. Me remito al despliegue de banda ancha. Cuando interesa, se mete caña por decreto y todo para delante. Cuando no interesa, como en pequeñas poblaciones, ni la cobertura del móvil es buena.

Las que se están posicionando son las petroleras, que están comprando pequeñas compañías eléctricas e invirtiendo en la movilidad eléctrica. Cuando eso esté sujeto, ningún problema.

 

Yo vivo en Talamanca del Jarama a 30 minutos de madrid centro y no llega la fibra óptica, aún tengo wifi de 10 megas !!! Imagino que la infraestructura eléctrica no llegará jamás !!! Pero es que yo no lo veo, pero no lo veo ni en madrid centro siquiera !!! Que planteas un enchufe por cada aparcamiento ???? Sabes cuantos enchufes son esos a nivel nacional ??? Ni en 10 vidas se puede pagar eso !!!

 

Pero hombre, no pienses como persona física. Piensa como persona jurídica, es decir, como un Estado.

El capital que mueve un Estado, en cada pequeña cosa, es brutal e inimeginable para un mortal.

De verdad que esto es como cuando se empezó la electrificación a comienzos de siglo. Al principio, y debido a limitaciones técnicas como las derivadas de usar corriente continua, solo se electrificaban poblaciones que estuvieran al lado de las centrales eléctricas. Es más, estas centrales se construían cerca de dichas poblaciones. Hoy en día, la electricidad llega a todos lados.

Una de las razones por las que el coche de combustión le ganó la partida al eléctrico fue el tema de la barato que era el petróleo y el problema de las baterías. Hoy en día, el combustible fósil es muy caro, con fluctuaciones que no sé hasta qué punto le interesa a países del primer mundo y el tema de las baterías avanza a pasos agigantados.

Yo creo que, y esto es una apuesta basada en nada , para dentro de 20 años el parque automovilístico cambiará muchísimo.

 

Para entonces quizás hayan arreglado el problema del tren en Extremadura

 

Como se acerque a los 600 km de autonomía, va a estar interesante

Por atrás me parece gordo pero en el sentido peyorativo . En general no lo veo nada atractivo.

 

Tiene las proporciones del Serie 2 GC que se acaba de presentar....

 

No, será mucho más bonito, es prácticamente un serie 4 gran coupé que mantiene las proporciones de motor longitudinal y tracción trasera, no como el feuno 2 GC motor transversal y tracción delantera.

 

c**o, este parece que lleva riñones normales. Entonces hemos pasado de poner diseños normales a los coches de combustión y diseños bizarros a los eléctricos, para diferenciarlos; a poner diseños normales a los eléctricos y bizarros a los de combustión, con esos riñones que parece que quieren ponerle al serie 4.

2021 BMW i4 details revealed: 80-kWh battery, 530 hp, 373-mile range

BMW's new electric sedan will take on Tesla with different range and power levels, and a unique approach to manufacturing.


November 14, 2019 3:40 PM PST



The BMW i4 EV will go into production in 2021, part of the automaker's big offensive to launch 25 new electrified vehicles by 2023. The i4 will be BMW's proper competitor to the Tesla Model 3, and based on new information Roadshow learned on Thursday, it should put up a proper fight.

Let's start with the specs. The BMW i4 will initially be powered by an 80-kilowatt-hour battery, producing about 390 kilowatts, or roughly 530 horsepower. Accelerating to 62 mph will take about 4 seconds flat, and the i4 will have an electronically limited top speed of 120 mph.

The i4 will use BMW's new, so-called Generation 5 battery packs, which are significantly smaller than the Generation 3 and 4 packs used in the company's current EVs. This makes the cells easier to package in the vehicle's floor, and allows them to be more easily scaled for smaller or larger applications.

These Generation 5 batteries are also stronger, meaning they can better handle fast-charging situations. BMW says that, on a 150-kW DC fast charger, the i4 should be able to achieve an 80% charge in about 35 minutes. For comparison, BMW notes that the i4 can add about 62 miles of range in about 6 minutes, while it takes the current i3 hatchback about 17 minutes to do the same.


BMW's Vision Dynamics concept is the shape of things to come

Total driving range is estimated to be roughly 373 miles on the notoriously optimistic European WLTP cycle; expect the US number to be a bit less, probably around 340-350 miles.

Of course, that's just the beginning. While BMW will only confirm the 530-hp, 373-mile i4 at this time, Roadshow has learned that additional power and range levels will also be available.

The i4 will ride on modular architecture that will be shared with other EVs. Because of this, the new electric drive unit, which packages the motor, transmission and electronics in one housing, can be mounted at the front or rear axles -- or both -- to provide front-, rear- or all-wheel drive as needed for the specific vehicle type.

The Generation 5 electric drive system is scalable for power outputs between 90 kW and 300 kW. Because the i4 produces 390 kW -- the aforementioned 530-ish hp -- it stands to reason this four-door will have a two-motor, all-wheel-drive layout.

This modular architecture won't just be scalable between electric vehicles, either. The i4 will use the same underpinnings as the new 3 Series sedan and upcoming 4 Series models, which allows BMW to not only offer gas-only, plug-in hybrid and fully electric models on the same platform, but produce them on the same line, as well. This greatly streamlines the manufacturing process.


BMW says the stiffness of its battery construction and the integration of the modules in the vehicle's floorpan help in a number of other key areas, too. This high-strength construction makes the vehicle safer in the event of a crash, and the low center of gravity improves driving dynamics.

In the case of the 2021 BMW i4, the battery module will weigh roughly 1,200 pounds, all of which will be packaged as low as possible in the vehicle's floor, directly between the front and rear axles.

The i4 is just one of several fully electric vehicles that will use BMW's Generation 5 technologies. The first production car to benefit from these batteries and manufacturing processes will be the iX3 SUV, which arrives next year. Following that, we'll see a production version of the iNext concept, followed by the i4.

As for the i4's design, we won't see that until sometime toward the end of 2020. All we know right now is that the i4 will look a lot like BMW's i Vision Dynamics concept, pictured here -- in other words, a modern take on a 4 Series Gran Coupe body style. The BMW Concept 4 from the 2019 Frankfurt Auto Show will have some influence on this EV's design, too.

The BMW i4 will be built in Munich beginning in 2021 and will make its way to other markets following that launch. We expect it to arrive in the US in 2021, possibly as a 2022 model.

PRESS RELEASE
The new BMW i4: the future of hallmark brand driving pleasure
With the first purely electrically powered model for the premium mid-range, BMW is transferring the brand's characteristic core features to the age of locally emissions-free mobility – Fifth-generation BMW eDrive to be introduced for the first time in the BMW iX3 in 2020 and will also be used in the BMW iNEXT and the BMW i4 in 2021 – Advanced battery cell technology enables sporty performance and a range of around 600 kilometres in the BMW i4.

Munich. The heart of the BMW brand beats in the premium segment of the mid-range category. Along with the BMW 4 Series Coupé, BMW 4 Series Convertible and BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé models, it is the BMW 3 Series that brings out the qualities that are key to hallmark brand driving pleasure in a particularly concentrated form. Now BMW is transferring the brand's characteristic core features to the age of electric mobility – the central purpose in developing the BMW i4. The BMW Group's first purely electrically powered model for the premium mid-range combines driving dynamics, sporty and elegant design, premium quality and the spacious comfort and functionality of a four-door Gran Coupé with locally emissions-free mobility. This heralds a new era of driving pleasure.

The future of electric mobility will be shaped by fifth-generation BMW eDrive technology, for which the BMW iX3 – to be produced from 2020 onwards – will act as a pioneer, followed by the BMW iNEXT and the BMW i4. With fifth-generation BMW eDrive technology, which also includes the latest innovations in the field of battery cells, the BMW i4 sets new standards in sporty performance, achieving a range of some 600 kilometres.

The development of the BMW i4 is part of a comprehensive product offensive by the BMW Group in the field of models with electrified drive. The company currently has the biggest range of all-electric and plug-in hybrid models within the competitive field. By 2023, the BMW Group will have 25 models with electrified drive in its program. With a model portfolio that includes efficient combustion engines as well as modern plug-in hybrid and purely electric drive, the BMW Group as a globally operating company is taking into account the varying requirements and preferences of its customers in different regions of the world. Irrespective of the type of drive selected, all current and future models feature hallmark brand driving pleasure as part of their specific characteristics.

Fifth-generation BMW eDrive technology for optimised dynamics, efficiency and range.

The drive technology of the BMW i4 sets new standards in terms of power density, efficiency and range in locally emissions-free driving. The electric motor, power electronics, charging unit and high-voltage battery have been entirely newly developed. Together they form the BMW eDrive technology of the fifth generation, with which the BMW Group has made further significant advancements in the field of electrified drive. From 2020 onwards, fifth-generation BMW eDrive technology will be introduced first in the BMW iX3 and then in the BMW iNEXT and BMW i4. The electric motor developed for the BMW i4 delivers a maximum output of around 390 kW/530 hp, reaching the level of a V8 engine in current BMW models fitted with a combustion engine. Its spontaneous power delivery gives the BMW i4 outstanding performance characteristics and exceptionally high efficiency.

The fifth generation of BMW eDrive also includes a newly designed high-voltage battery featuring the latest battery cell technology. The design of the high-voltage battery developed for the BMW i4 is characterised by its extremely flat design and optimised energy density. With a weight of some 550 kilograms, it has an energy content of around 80 kWh. This gives the BMW i4 a range of approximately 600 kilometres.

Gran Coupé with characteristic design and performance features.

The all-electric BMW i4 will be produced from 2021 onwards and subsequently launched on the global automotive markets. The new model will be manufactured at the company's main plant in Munich, where other vehicles produced include the BMW 3 Series Sedan with conventional combustion engine and plug-in hybrid drive, the BMW 3 Series Touring with conventional drive and from summer 2020 also with plug-in hybrid drive, the BMW 4 Series Coupé and the BMW M4 Coupé (fuel consumption combined: 10.0 – 9.3 l/100 km; combined CO2 emissions: 227 – 213 g/km). In addition to the sporty, elegant design that is typical of a 4-door coupé of the brand, the BMW i4 is characterised by impressive performance features. The BMW i brand's first Gran Coupé accelerates from zero to 100 km/h in around 4.0 seconds, achieving a top speed of more than 200 km/h.

A flexible vehicle architecture, the flat, low-positioned high-voltage battery and the compact drive technology create a high degree of freedom in realising a model-specific design. The BMW i4 combines the characteristic proportions of a 4-door coupé with the typical design features of a BMW i model. Dynamically stretched lines and a precise surface design go hand in hand with aerodynamically optimised exterior features as well as sustainability accentuations that are specific to BMW i. High entry and exit comfort for the rear passengers and a spacious, variable interior ensure high suitability for both day-to-day trips and long-distance travel. As such, the BMW i4 can be clearly identified as a BMW Gran Coupé – and equally clearly as an electrically powered vehicle.

Modular, flexible drive and battery storage technology.

The electric drive component of the BMW i4, its charging unit and high-voltage battery are all developed in-house by the BMW Group. Production is carried out in-house or according to BMW Group specifications. Here, the experience gained from development of the previous generations of BMW eDrive technology is consistently tapped into with the aim of optimising all components on an ongoing basis.

The BMW Group's comprehensive expertise in the field of electrified drive systems forms the basis for a scalable modular system whose components can be integrated into different vehicle concepts with great flexibility. Fifth-generation BMW eDrive technology comprises a highly integrated drive system in which the electric motor, transmission and power electronics are accommodated in a single housing. This drive system is compatible with all vehicle concepts and will be available for different models in a range of output levels. The highly integrated design of the system allows a significant increase in power density as well as a reduction in weight and manufacturing effort. Production of future-generation electric motors will no longer require materials categorised as rare earths.

The next generation charging unit is characterised by a uniform package suitable for all future vehicle architectures. It can be used in plug-in hybrid models as well as in purely electrically powered vehicles and is designed for a charging capacity of up to 150 kW. This allows the high-voltage battery of the BMW i4 to be charged to around 80 per cent of its full energy content in around 35 minutes. This results in a charging time of around six minutes for a range of 100 kilometres.

In the field of high-voltage batteries, too, the advancements introduced with the fifth generation of BMW eDrive technology are based on the BMW Group's in-depth expertise and years of experience. The company has an exceptionally high level of know-how both in the field of battery cell technology and in the manufacture of model-specific high-voltage batteries. This lays the foundation for continuous optimisation of the batteries – both in future plug-in hybrid models and in purely electrically powered vehicles. The BMW Group has been manufacturing modules and model-specific high-voltage batteries for vehicles with electrified drive systems since 2013. An independently developed modular system with a flexible arrangement of the modules enables integration of batteries developed in-house into various vehicle concepts. Consistent ongoing development work is dedicated to optimising the basic characteristics of the battery cells as well as the structure of the modules and their arrangement in the respective model-specific storage unit. For example, the batteries used in the BMW i4 and other future electric vehicles have a higher number of cells per module, a reduced number of components, a more compact design and increased flexibility with regard to their geometry.

With the establishment of the Battery Cell Competence Centre in Munich, the BMW Group has further expanded its research and development expertise in this area, which is crucial to the future of electromobility. The focus is on fundamental research in areas where there is an impact on customer-related factors such as energy density, accessible peak output, service life, safety, charging characteristics, response at different temperatures and manufacturing costs. At the new Battery Cell Competence Centre, research is being conducted in particular into the potential for further optimisation of cell chemistry and cell design. The selection and composition of materials for the anode, cathode, electrolyte and separator as well as the format of the battery cells made of these materials will have a key impact on the quality of high-voltage batteries used in future models with electrified propulsion.

 

Llevaba un rato pensando a qué coj*nes me recordaban esos "riñones"...

 

Supongo que ese frontal lo redondearan un poco, no tiene que dar - al menos esa parte- un buen cx.

 

j*der que pedazo de batería...ya pueden hacerlas fiables y estables porque que miedito...

 

Ya empiezo a mirarme la protagonista con vicio...

 

Pregunta de ignorante en cuanto a motores eléctricos, y muchas cosas más , pero en principio motores de este tipo ¿existe el freno motor? A lo mejor, además del peso del conjunto motor-baterías, ésa sea también la consecuencia del tamaño de los discos .

 

Por lo que yo he probado si y no. No es freno motor como tal, las ruedas llevan algún sistema de reaprovechamiento de la energía y cuando frenas o lo dejas caer ves como se va "recargando" lo que hace algo de retención.

Algo así como las luces con dinamo en las bicis ochenteras

 

En 2 meses lo presentan, es el 2º eléctrico de BMW desde el i3 hace ya 6 años, y tiene mucha importancia para la marca...

BMW i4 Concept Reveal is BMW’s most important since the i3 Concept
January 18th, 2020 by Nico DeMattia



When BMW first unveiled the i3 Concept, it was a revolutionary look at what the future of personal urban mobility could be. It was bold and exciting, showing off a clear vision for BMW’s future. When the production i3 was finally revealed, it was so similar to its own concept, fans were at a loss for words. Since then, though, BMW has drastically slowed down. It’s yet to debut another car as bold or radical as the i3 Concept. However, the Bavarians may get another chance, with the upcoming BMW i4.

According to our sources, the BMW i4 Concept — a close-to-production concept of the actual i4 road car — will make its debut at the 2020 Geneva Motor Show in just a few months time. That makes the Geneva show the most important car show for BMW in a very long time, as the i4 will be the brand’s most important car reveal since that i3 Concept way back.





When the BMW i4 Concept hits that showroom stage for the world to see, it will represent the first all-electric production car from BMW since the original i3 back in 2014. While that was only six years, six years is a lifetime in this new automotive world. Since the i3’s introduction, we’ve seen several new Teslas launch, the Chevy Bolt, a new and upgraded Nissan Leaf and even a flipping KIA e-Niro. All while BMW seemingly sat idly by.


Now BMW will of course tell you that it wasn’t sitting idly by, that it’s been working on ground-breaking new electric tech behind the scenes. Maybe that’s true. Maybe it isn’t. Either way, we’re going to find out in Geneva, when the BMW i4 Concept makes its debut. Once we see that, we’ll know if BMW was serious about its claims of clandestine innovation.




Whether the Bavarians want to admit it or not, they’re behind the curve, in terms of electrification. The aforementioned EVs have surpassed BMW (and, to be honest, most of the other German brands as well). This is BMW’s chance to regain some footing, though. Geneva will be its chance to make a comeback and that’s what makes the BMW i4 Concept the most important reveal since the original i3 Concept, which seems like a lifetime ago.

 

Leo que, en general, los modelos 100% eléctricos de alto caballaje no consiguen ni de lejos velocidades máx que sus homólogos de combustión alcanzan. este por ejemplo creo que no llega ni a 230.hay alguna razón para ello?. Por potencia, limitado, tendría que ofrecer los 250-255 kph y sin deslimitar seguro que podía sobrepasar por poco a los. 300.

 

En general no tienen marchas (creo que únicamente el taycan tiene 2 marchas), imagínate un v8 equivalente en que solo tuviera la 3a marcha...

 

Si, pero hay algunos eléctricos puros que los utilizan para batir récords de velocidad.
Por qué no dejan que el i4 alcance los 300?

 

La verdad es que pensar que el cambio es como el de una vespino, menudo coñazo, tendrán que modificar el anuncio de "te gusta conducir?"...
No he probado nunca un eléctrico puro tipo tesla pero me temo que cuando lo haga me va a defraudar
