Back in the early-mid 2000's BMW diverted capital from other projects including vanity projects into product expansion -X3,6er(2003) and into meeting upcoming legislation with the EfficientDynamics concept which was first presented in an X3 model at the 2005 IAA before the features were introduced to all new BMW models from early 2007 under the term EfficientDynamics.

EfficientDynamics helped achieve Greater recognition for BMW winning many awards for its intelligent approach to sustainability that left its competitors rushing to catch up.

The crowning moment was the Vision EfficientDynamics Concept of 2009 with its unconventional drivetrain which apart from the Diesel power plant made production four years later as the BMW i8.

Today EfficientDynamics includes many new methods in its philosophy and continues to make EfficientDynamics the pinnacle in its class and why BMW will be one manufacture to achieve the goal of being a manufacture to reach their EU/Cafe targets first.

This is a directive from the Quandt's because it also assists other assets in their portfolio achieving new business especially in environmental and renewable energy contracts.
