Engine - Exhaust
The basis for the was BMW M6, which underwent a performance upgrade.
Optimising the entire engine management system and fitting an exhaust manifold system withl catalyst, sports rear silencer with tailpipe trims in "Sports Trim Design"
help the TENSION achieve an incredible 406 kW / 552 HP.
Even more imposing than the pure engine power is the maximum torque of 540 Nm at 6200 rpm, which pushes the driver back in the seat and catapults the TENSION to 100 km/h in just 4.5 seconds.
The Vmax delimiter means that the acceleration thrust continues to 331.78 km/h before the speedo needle can relax.
So the TENSION has done it: it is the fastest BMW in the world and is road legal.
Brakes
To achieve good deceleration values, development of a braking system was essential. On the front axle this takes the uncompromising form of an 8-pot fixed caliper with slotted and vented brake disks in (Ø 374 mm) and with 36 mm thickness. On the rear axle, a 4-pot fixed caliper is used.
