Air flap control

By closing the louvers at low cooling requirements, the active air flap control improves the aerodynamics of your vehicle and let the engine reach operating temperature faster.

The air resist: The closing of the air damper improves the aerodynamics of your vehicle and let the engine reach operating temperature faster.
The air flow through the radiator creates an increased air resistance. The innovative air vent control this is significantly reduced by the air dampers are opened behind the BMW kidney only when needed.
The air flap control calculated using the relevant vehicle data cooling requirements and regulates the air supply to the engine and engine cooling through appropriate opening and closing of the air damper.
With low cooling requirement of the engine, so during normal driving, the air flow is prevented by the grille. This leads to a measurable improvement of aerodynamics of the vehicle and allows the engine to quickly achieve the optimum operating temperature. Only when the full amount of cooling air is required, the air doors are opened.
In this way, the fuel consumption can be reduced and unwanted background noise can be reduced. At the same time carries an active air flap control to the longevity of the engine and leads to a significant improvement in driving comfort.
