Diesel Engines: Fact vs. Fiction

Diesel engines are grossly misunderstood, like Ozzy Osbourne’s lyrics or the proper way to knot a bow tie. And as such, they’ve long fielded a bad, often inaccurate, rap as a power source for passenger vehicles.The very mention of a diesel engine typically conjures up an image of a heavy-duty pickup truck or farm equipment; former NBA star Shaquille O’Neal wasn’t known as “The Diesel” for his grace and agility. But the modern diesel engine has little in common with its older siblings, so the time has arrived to dispel nagging myths, set the record straight and cast aside all preconceptions.   Fiction: Hybrids boast unsurpassed fuel economyFact: Sure, hybrid vehicles operate efficiently. But diesel engines deliver equal or improved fuel economy, while easily outdistancing traditional gas engines by as much as 20-30% for similar models. Diesel fuel is extremely energy dense, rooted in a highly efficient process that wastes substantially less power and puts savings at the pump in consumers’ wallets. Plus, actual MPGs frequently exceed sticker figures that have been calculated by the Environmental Protection Agency.   Fiction: Diesel engines are unfriendly to the environmentFact: In the past, true. But that was long before the advent of clean diesel technologies, such as those found in BMW’s impeccable line of vehicles. Diesel engines have attacked old stereotypes with a two-pronged approach. First, the engine has evolved by light years to include emissions-zapping properties that slash pollution levels. Additionally, today’s diesel fuel contains 97% less harmful sulfur than in the past, making it both greener and distinctly less impactful on the environment and individual health.   Fiction: Improved efficiency comes at the expense of powerFact: Diesel engines are bona fide dual-threats, packing quickness and agility with unfettered muscle. They generate an ample supply of low-end torque, a measure of force or rotational power inside the engine. To the layman, more torque equals greater acceleration and the strength to steadily remain at top speed, even when hauling cargo. Torque is actually a better measurement of performance than horsepower, and today’s diesel engines are loaded with it.   Fiction: Diesel fuel is inaccessibleFact: No, you won’t need a Sherpa or to update your GPS app to locate the nearest diesel pump. The number of gas stations offering diesel is steadily rising, a trend that’s expected to continue in the coming years. There are more than 90,000 pumps across the nation, so there’s bound to be one in your local neighborhood. And if you must drive a little further to fuel up, you can rest a little easier knowing that you’re getting better mileage than your fellow road warriors.   Fiction: Diesel engines struggle to turn over in cold weatherFact: Again, a stigma from the past that has since been addressed with new advancements in technology. The drawback to diesel fuel is that it tends to become somewhat gelatinous at lower temperatures, which is less than ideal for cranking up an engine. However, this issue has been adequately tackled with cutting edge, high-pressure fuel injectors that improve viscosity and fuel disbursement at startup.   Fiction: Diesel engines create noise pollutionFact: Okay, so diesels were once the garage bands of the road, creating loud bursts and recurrent knocking from a process known as ‘hard combustion’. But these days, they run every bit as quiet and unassuming as engines operating with gasoline. Automotive engineering has helped to markedly dial down the engine’s clatter, with help from modern fuel injection techniques and noise and vibration-muffling technologies.   Fiction: Diesel engines have a short shelf lifeFact: On the contrary, diesel engines are now hailed for their longevity and durability, which saves money and protects a vehicle’s trade-in and resale value in the long term. Diesels are manufactured for the long haul, with the sturdy components to withstand the demands of higher compression and resist traditional wear and tear. Moreover, thicker diesel fuel doubles as a lubricant, constantly protecting the moving parts inside the engine.   Fiction: Owning and maintaining a diesel engine can be costlyFact: Since diesel engines are so well-made, repairs are far less common. In fact, there’ve been recorded cases of diesels registering more than 900,000 miles on the original engine, an astounding testament to precision and craftsmanship. Now, these workhorses do require regular maintenance, such as oil and filter changes. However, since diesels are not made with spark plugs or distributors, costly tune-ups are rendered unnecessary.Looking to improve your gas mileage, without sacrificing an ounce of speed, power or luxury? Contact Flemington BMW before purchasing or leasing your next vehicle to schedule a test drive and to learn more about its versatile line of clean diesel cars, wagons and trucks.

BMW EV Charging & Electric Models

Thinking About an Electric BMW? Charging Is Probably Easier Than You Think

The performance is easy to understand. So is the quiet cabin, instant response, and appeal of driving a BMW without stopping at the gas station. For many people considering their first electric vehicle, it's charging that requires a little more explanation. Fortunately, owning an electric BMW gives you several ways to handle it. BMW drivers can charge at home, access more than 180,000 charging points across BMW's North American provider network, locate compatible stations through the My BMW App, and now use compatible Tesla Supercharger locations. Once you understand where charging fits into your normal routine, choosing an EV becomes less about charging itself and more about a much more interesting question: which electric BMW do you want? At Flemington BMW, you can explore our New BMW Inventory to compare available electric models, or Value Your Trade online if you're considering making the switch from your current vehicle. The Best Place to Charge Your BMW Might Be Your Own Garage For many EV owners, charging doesn't require making a separate stop at all. Every all-electric BMW comes with a Flexible Fast Charger that's compatible with a standard 120V household outlet as well as a 240V outlet with the included adapters. Drivers can also have an optional BMW Wallbox installed at home. With the right home setup, your normal routine can be as simple as plugging in after you park and letting the vehicle charge overnight. Instead of building a trip to the gas station into your week, charging happens during hours when your BMW would already be sitting in the driveway or garage. Road Trips Aren't Limited to the Charger Around the Corner Home charging handles one side of EV ownership. Public charging handles the other. BMW says drivers have access to more than 180,000 charging points across its North American provider network, with major charging providers accessible through the My BMW App. Compatible BMW EVs can now use certain Tesla Supercharger stations as well. Depending on the station and vehicle, drivers can charge using a BMW-approved Lectron Vortex Plus DC adapter at NACS Partner Tesla Supercharger locations or use Tesla stations equipped with the built-in Magic Dock adapter. Compatibility with NACS Partner Superchargers depends on the vehicle receiving the required BMW Remote Software Upgrade, with availability varying by model. Level 2 or DC Fast Charging? Here's the Difference That Matters Not every charging session needs to accomplish the same thing. Level 2 AC charging makes sense when your BMW will be parked for a while, such as at home, work, or another destination. DC fast charging is designed for getting substantial range back much faster when you're traveling. BMW gives the i4 as one example. At a Level 2 public charger, an i4 can add approximately 30 miles of range in an hour. At a DC fast charger, it can add around 100 miles of range in just 10 minutes under the appropriate conditions. Some BMW EVs can make the process even simpler with Plug & Charge. At compatible Electrify America and select Shell Recharge stations, eligible vehicles can automatically authenticate the charging session without requiring you to separately interact with an app, credit card, or charger. Most BMW EVs from model year 2024 onward are eligible, although certain vehicles may require a dealer software upgrade. BMW i4: Start Here If You Still Want Your EV to Feel Like a Sporty BMW Going electric doesn't automatically mean buying an SUV. The BMW i4 puts an all-electric powertrain into a sleek four-door format, making it a natural place to start for drivers who want electric performance without giving up the lower profile and driving experience they associate with a BMW car. It's also a useful reminder of how broad BMW's EV lineup has become. Choosing electric is no longer the big decision by itself. You can still decide what size, shape, level of luxury, and driving experience suits you. Browse our available BMW i4 Inventory at Flemington BMW to see which configurations are currently available. BMW i5: An Electric Answer for the Executive Sedan Move up the lineup and you'll find the BMW i5, bringing all-electric driving into the 5 Series family. This is where EV ownership starts making sense for someone who wants the refinement and presence of a larger luxury sedan along with an electric powertrain. BMW highlights the i5's refined design in its own EV owner stories, including the experience of a first-time BMW owner who chose the electric sedan. If your idea of an EV has mostly involved compact crossovers, the i5 offers a very different interpretation. BMW i7: Electric Goes Full Luxury Then there's the BMW i7. BMW's all-electric luxury sedan sits at the other end of the spectrum from the idea that EVs have to be small, minimalist, or primarily about efficiency. The i7 brings electric power into BMW's flagship sedan experience for drivers who want the space, technology, comfort, and presence of a 7 Series. It's the electric BMW for someone whose priorities don't shrink simply because the gasoline engine is gone. BMW iX: When Your Electric BMW Needs to Be an SUV The BMW iX takes BMW's all-electric experience into an SUV designed around passenger space, versatility, and everyday flexibility. That can make it particularly appealing if the EV you're considering also needs to handle family responsibilities, luggage, longer trips, or the constantly changing cargo demands that make an SUV useful in the first place. BMW's own owner stories highlight that versatility through drivers balancing family, work, and other responsibilities with the iX. If you're considering one for yourself, explore the available BMW iX Inventory at Flemington BMW and compare it with the other electric BMW models currently on our lot. BMW iX3: Another Electric SUV Is Joining the Conversation The BMW iX3 expands BMW's all-electric SUV choices further. With the iX3 joining a lineup that already includes electric sedans, Gran Coupes, and SUVs, BMW shoppers have considerably more freedom to start with the kind of vehicle they actually want and then consider the electric version. Explore our BMW iX3 Inventory to check current availability and learn more about this newest addition to BMW's electric lineup. Not Ready to Go Fully Electric? BMW Has Another Option There doesn't have to be one correct moment when every driver should switch from gasoline to a fully electric vehicle. BMW also offers Plug-In Hybrid vehicles that combine an internal-combustion engine with electric driving capability. For someone interested in charging at home and using electric power for some of their driving while retaining a gasoline engine for longer trips, a BMW plug-in hybrid can provide another path into electrification. You can compare our BMW Plug-In Hybrid Vehicles alongside all-electric models to decide which approach fits the way you actually drive. Explore Electric BMW Models at Flemington BMW Living with an EV looks considerably different when your garage becomes your regular charging station, your navigation can help plan charging stops, and your public charging options include a network of more than 180,000 charging points across North America. The more interesting part is deciding what you want to drive. Explore the BMW i4, i5, i7, iX, and iX3 at Flemington BMW, or compare our plug-in hybrid options if you aren't ready to make the jump to an all-electric vehicle. You can browse our New BMW Inventory, Value Your Trade, explore our available BMW Certified Pre-Owned vehicles, or read our 5-Star Customer Reviews before visiting us at 216 US Highway 202 in Flemington, NJ.

2027 BMW 5 Series

Some Cars Disappear After Dark. The 2027 BMW 5 Series Doesn't.

BMW has spent decades doing something surprisingly difficult: making each new generation instantly recognizable without making it look like the last one. That's especially true with the 2027 BMW 5 Series. The details that define it aren't oversized or dramatic. They're deliberate. The illuminated kidney grille, welcoming light animations, panoramic glass roof, and carefully layered interior don't compete for attention. Together, they create something that's unmistakably BMW long before anyone notices the badge. It's a philosophy that drivers throughout Flemington and Central New Jersey will recognize the moment the sun goes down. The Front End Glows in the Parking Lot You'll probably notice the available BMW Iconic Glow Kidney Grille before you notice anything else. As daylight fades, subtle white illumination outlines the signature grille while the vehicle is parked and while driving. It's not flashy for the sake of attracting attention. Instead, it gives the 5 Series a signature look that's recognizable from across the lot before anyone even sees the BMW roundel. Some cars fade into the background after dark. This one develops a whole new personality. Every Arrival is Intentional Most people don't think twice about getting in or out of their vehicle. Until they experience the available Dynamic Light Carpet. As the doors open, animated lighting brightens the ground around the vehicle, making nighttime entry easier while creating an arrival that feels noticeably more refined. It's the kind of feature guests comment on the first time they ride with you, and the kind owners appreciate every evening afterward. The best luxury features aren't always the biggest ones. They're often the ones that make ordinary moments feel just a little more special. The Cabin Feels Bigger Than Its Dimensions The available Sky Lounge Panoramic Roof changes more than the view overhead. Natural light fills the cabin during the day, making the interior feel even more spacious, while evening drives take on a completely different atmosphere beneath the open glass roof. Whether you're driving alone or heading out with friends, the cabin never feels closed in. Luxury isn't always about adding more. Sometimes it's about making the space you already have feel brighter, calmer, and more inviting. Technology That Adds Atmosphere The 2027 BMW 5 Series certainly delivers impressive technology, but some of its most memorable features have less to do with specifications than they do with how the cabin feels. The available BMW Interaction Bar changes its appearance with different My Modes, surrounding the cabin with lighting that shifts to match the mood of the drive. Available Harman Kardon Premium Sound fills the interior with rich, balanced audio, while the BMW Curved Display even offers integrated video streaming and AirConsole games while the vehicle is parked. These aren't features you'll show someone because they're complicated. You'll show them because they're genuinely fun to experience. Confidence Feels Different in Heavy Traffic Luxury also means arriving a little less tired. Available Driving Assistant Professional can help maintain lane position and following distance during highway traffic, even bringing the vehicle to a complete stop and moving again when traffic resumes. Available Highway Assistant supports hands-free driving on compatible controlled-access highways at speeds up to 85 mph, while Parking Assistant Plus can remember and repeat parking maneuvers you've already performed. They're the kinds of features that become part of your routine instead of interrupting it. A Luxury Sedan You'll Notice Long After You Park It The 2027 BMW 5 Series offers the performance, craftsmanship, and technology drivers expect from BMW. What makes it memorable, though, is how often it improves moments that most vehicles overlook. Pulling into your driveway after dark, welcoming friends for dinner, enjoying a favorite playlist on the way home, or simply walking back toward your car across a parking lot all feel a little different in the 5 Series because the details were designed to be experienced, not simply listed on a spec sheet. Visit Flemington BMW, located at 216 US Highway 202 in Flemington, NJ, to learn more about the 2027 BMW 5 Series and discover how these thoughtful details come together in person. The cars people remember usually aren't the loudest ones. They're the ones that leave an impression before the engine even starts.
