2005 AC Schnitzer Tension M6 Concept

2005 AC Schnitzer Tension M6 Concept

2005 AC Schnitzer Tension M6 Concept Psychologically, anxiety means excited expectation or apprehension of a proposed occasion that's both specially favored or feared.

Physically, tension describes a pressure inside a resilient body.

Mechanical tension (symbol σ) is the pressure in step with floor unit which acts in an imaginary phase plane via a frame, a fluid or a fuel.

Tension is also the most important tool of playwrights and authors for motivating the viewer and reader to look at and study in addition.

The applicaton of these kinds of special definitions to a single vehicle - regarded from all elements - is demonstrated via AC Schnitzer on the IAA 2005 with the Concept Car:

TENSION

The basis for the considerable conversion could handiest be one vehicle: the 507 HP BMW M6, which underwent a performance improve as the first improvement degree. Optimising the whole engine management system and becoming a new AC Schnitzer exhaust manifold gadget with special catalyst, sports activities rear silencer with chromed tailpipe trims in proper/left combination in "Sports Trim Design" help the TENSION gain an great 406 kW / 552 HP. The Sports Trim Design may even rapidly be included in the AC Schnitzer sports rear silencer variety solely for the new BMW M motors.

Even greater imposing than the natural engine power is the maximum torque of 540 Nm at 6200 rpm, which pushes the driving force again inside the seat and catapults the TENSION explosively to 100 km/h in only four.Five seconds.

The AC Schnitzer Vmax delimiter manner that the acceleration thrust maintains to 325 km/h earlier than the speedo needle can loosen up - wherein using situations allow.

Conversely of path splendid forces also are vital to carry the TENSION back to a standstill. To gain correct deceleration values, improvement of an AC Schnitzer high performance braking system became important. On the the front axle this takes the uncompromising shape of an eight-pot constant caliper with slotted and vented brake disks in 374 mm diameter and with 36 mm thick brake discs. On the rear axle, a 4-pot constant caliper is used along with the same old brake discs.

For both acceleration and deceleration, it's miles the wheels which are permanently underneath full load in all manoeuvres. To take account first off of the safety element and secondly to fulfil the excessive technical necessities imposed on the new Concept Car by way of our engineers, a completely new wheel had to be advanced.

The result is the AC Schnitzer "Forged Wheel": a lightweight solid wheel with bi-shade finish, i.E. It has a part polished, component painted floor. The cast wheel embodies an obvious contradiction: discount in weight with at the same time the most important feasible diameters and widths.

The TENSION is fitted with wheels length 10.0J x 20" all spherical. The offsets of -12 on the front and -2 at the rear allow tyres of size 285/30 ZR 20 and 325/25 ZR 20 respctively, of kind MICHELIN Pilot Sport 2.

The weight of the front wheel is approx. 10 kg and the rear wheel 10.8 kg. But the AC Schnitzer Forged Wheels aren't reserved solely for the TENSION. From December 2005 this new wheel kind may even enrich the AC Schnitzer variety for the BMW five-series and 6-series.

In motorsport the proper Set Up regularly makes the difference between first and 2nd places, and our engineers placed unique significance on most suitable chassis set-up. In the AC Schnitzer TENSION, riding dynamics are decisively stepped forward via the special development of an adjustable AC Schnitzer racing suspension. As properly as reducing by using 30 mm with regards to its fashionable brother M6, the spring and damper rates have been really modified toward carrying performance.

To counter lateral roll movements the AC Schnitzer antiroll bar kits are fitted to the the front and rear axles. A similarly suspension spotlight is the specifically evolved strut brace in aluminiumcarbon mixture, which perfectly prevents torsion in the automobile the front.

The TENSION body conversion is surely breathtaking, and is absolutely committed to optimising the aerodynamics. A similarly focal factor of the improvement was the development of the air supply and extraction for the electricity plant and braking gadget.

The redesigned bonnet of the AC Schnitzer TENSION famous at the beginning sight - through its striking power bulge and massive air shops - that it conceals an extremely powerful engine which requires maximum bloodless air go with the flow particularly at complete load.

Another absolutely new development is the front skirt which makes the TENSION appearance even lower and similarly increases downforce on the the front axle at excessive speeds. Its large air intake offers extra cooling for the engine and front brakes, and offers the TENSION its unmistakeable visible expression.

To provide additional venting for the V10 engine, large air outlet openings had been furnished inside the new front wings, where the three chromed ribs and LED flashers are reminiscent of a shark's mouth.

Adequate air float is vital for the TENSION to increase its full capacity no longer most effective in the the front of the automobile: this principle naturally additionally applies to the rear.

Consequently air ducts for the rear brakes have been labored into the striking facet skirts; those skirts not simplest give the TENSION a more elongated appearance however additionally make certain a harmonious transition to the massive rear.

The rear skirt comprises no longer handiest the dual exhaust device made totally of chrome steel with chromed Sports Trim tailpipes however also a completely unique underfloor wing construction with diffuser.

The driver of the AC Schnitzer TENSION has the choice of actively changing the automobile aerodynamics to match his desires. This is executed through two interchangeable carbon diffusers which meet the differing needs for downforce on a track or while using on u . S . Roads. The rapid action aluminium catches mean that this conversion may be made effortlessly with the aid of the motive force and the unused diffuser can be carried in a unique holder inside the boot so conversion can be spontaneous.

The identical applies also to the rear wing of the TENSION. This too was designed as a cell option for the music and has its place either within the boot or, the usage of rapid motion catches, at the specially redesigned boot lid.

The boot lid of the TENSION is a actual eyecatcher even without the rear wing. In comparison to the same old automobile, it comes with out vital rear spoiler, giving smoother lines to the car rear.

The frame idea, which makes the TENSION 25 mm wider on every aspect, is complemented by means of the AC Schnitzer sports activities mirrors and the extravagant -color paint in Magic Orange Metallic with Carbon Grey.

The AC Schnitzer engineers are currently making plans to encompass in the range a "softened" version of the TENSION aerodynamic idea for the M6, that is now in improvement.

The indoors of the AC Schnitzer TENSION is a combination of developments from the AC Schnitzer range which can be to be had for plenty BMW models, and unique one-off products. The latter encompass among others the racing seats in leather with AC Schnitzer emblem and the carbon indoors trim in Magic Orange. The 3-spoke airbag sports activities guidance wheel in leather is likewise outfitted. The selector gaiter and handbrake handle are completed in Alcantara with black seams.

The arm rests in the doors and at the centre console are finished in Magic Orange leather-based to suit the paintwork. Velours foot mats with embroidered TENSION logo entire the interior. The aluminium add-ons inclusive of pedal set, foot rests, handbrake cope with and a cowl for the controller of the "i-Drive" system are but a longtime part of the AC Schnitzer range.

The AC Schnitzer TENSION became evolved as a technology platform. This Concept Car inside the equipment stage and form proven here might cost round € 260,000.00. There aren't any plans for collection production.
