Marenda Jaseph Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 The newest plug-in sedan from Germany has the muscle but doesn't quite launch you to outer space. https://www.reddit.com/user/Exam_Necessary268/comments/1k5sp1p/updated_veeam_vmce_v12_exam_dumps_your_shortcut/?p=1 https://www.reddit.com/user/Exam_Necessary268/comments/1k5t1c0/has_anyone_here_taken_the_splunk_splk1003_exam/?p=1 https://next.invitation.codes/discuss/bNbLNsOuF/Microsoft-SC-200-Exam-Prep-Key-Resources-for-Success https://collaborate.asce.org/viewdocument/best-way-to-prepare-for-amazon-sap https://forum.uniformserver.com/topic/23625-how-do-ism-inte-practice-questions-help/ When JFK declared we're going to the moon, there was no agreed-upon plan. Sure, very smart engineers at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory had probably thought about it, maybe even penciled a calculation or two on the back of a napkin, but the presidential declaration made the need for a viable plan very real. There were many proposals and ultimately the concept that won and got Apollo 11 to and from the moon focused on extreme svelteness. The lunar program relied on saving every possible gram it could because the math of such a galactic undertaking, literally, is that adding weight requires more fuel, which itself increases weight. It's a case of diminishing returns, so Ergo Lightness won. https://github.com/charlieoscar121/GitHub-Exam-Practice-Questions/issues/3 https://about.me/examtopics https://www.tripoto.com/trip/where-to-find-dumps-for-google-professional-cloud-network-engineer-exam-3e02603a3d9bae42 The BMW M5 has not followed a similar path, though it is unfair to single out this one model, or even BMW. Every car company has made larger and heavier models over the last 30 years. But as BMWs grew, the brand introduced smaller cars—with a numerically smaller name, in some cases—to fill the vacated spot. While arguably more capable than ever, do not hate the new plug-in hybrid M5 because it weighs almost exactly as much as a 2019 BMW X5 xDrive50i or more than a 2024 Mercedes-AMG GLE53. Do not hate it because it is dimensionally larger than a 1996 BMW 740i. It may wear the same badge, but it will never do what an E39 M5 can do, in part because it weighs 1275 pounds more. (That would be 5251 pounds, which represents a 139-pound deduction from BMW's published curb weight, so that was a nice surprise. That said, the carbon-ceramic brakes and carbon-fiber roof are the lightest way to spec an M5.) Much like the M3, when it lost the V-8, don't hate the M5 for what it isn't. Love it for what it is. The G90 M5 is a luxury sedan with a Saturn V rocket under the hood. Its twin-turbo 4.4-liter V-8 makes 577 horsepower. Its electric motor, capable of driving the car on its own for up to 25 miles per the EPA, makes 194 horses, and they combine to make a plug-in powerplant pumping out 717 horsepower: more than twice the power of the early 1990s E34 M5. The car is capable of accelerating to 60 mph in 3.0 seconds. It can hang on the skidpad at 0.98 g. It can stop from 100 mph in less than a football field. It's also one of the fastest cars from corner to corner in a canyon and more comfortable than Grandpa's favorite chair in city traffic. Unfortunately, this M5 isn't quicker than the last F90-generation M5 CS. That one burned a quarter-mile in 10.6 seconds, three-tenths quicker than this one. Nor is it quicker than the previous generation's base model. But we suspect BMW has the ability to turn up the wick on this hybrid, and more variants are on the way.
