The "superbrain" Heart of Joy in the Neue Klasse raises driving dynamics to a new level.
Together with the BMW Dynamic Performance Control software stack, the Heart of Joy is pivotal to powertrain, brakes, recuperation and sub-functions of the steering system.
It processes information ten times faster* than previous systems and therefore responds more directly than ever to the driver’s command.
Fewer control inputs are required, directional stability is more precise and stable.
As a result, the vehicle develops consistent and reproducible cornering characteristics and can be steered intuitively.
Powertrain and braking functions also work together harmoniously to decelerate the vehicle.
Recuperation can be used across the whole speed range down to a standstill.
Indeed, in 98 percent of cases, the vehicle can be brought to a standstill without applying the friction brakes – without noise or jolts.
The Heart of Joy and BMW Dynamic Performance Control raise the BMW driving experience to a new level – from standstill to dynamic limits.
