BMW M Division Head: Simulated shifting and sound effects technology will be added to electric vehicles

**Electric vehicle driving pleasure: Hyundai IONIQ 5 N leads the way** According to news on June 25, Hyundai IONIQ 5 N has won praise from car fans in the field of electric vehicles for its excellent driving experience. Recently, Frank van Meel, head of BMW’s M division, revealed in public that BMW is actively developing simulated shifting and sound effects functions to add more driving fun to its electric vehicles. This decision was clearly inspired by the modern IONIQ 5 N. [fenye] Hyundai IONIQ 5 N has carved a niche in the electric vehicle market with its unique driving experience. The car's dual-motor all-wheel-drive system delivers up to 585 horsepower, making it a true performance machine. In addition, IONIQ 5 N is also equipped with simulated shift paddles and an adjustable sound system, giving drivers a more engaging driving experience. BMW's latest move shows that the driving pleasure of electric vehicles is being increasingly valued. As technology continues to advance, electric vehicles can not only provide superior performance but also provide drivers with a more immersive and exciting driving experience.

**Hyundai IONIQ 5 N: Improved driving experience** In creating the IONIQ 5 N, Hyundai didn’t settle for simple power boosts and chassis optimizations. Instead, they significantly enhance the driving experience through a series of innovative technologies. **Simulated dual-clutch gearbox shifting experience** This technology simulates the shifting experience of [fenye]’s eight-speed dual-clutch transmission, allowing drivers to more intuitively feel the vehicle’s speed changes and power output. This adds more fun and involvement to driving.

**Frank van Meer praises the Hyundai IONIQ 5 N driving experience** In an interview, Frank van Meer spoke highly of the Hyundai IONIQ 5 N. He pointed out that Hyundai Motor's innovative ideas in driving experience coincide with BMW's, especially in terms of simulated shifting and sound effects. Hyundai Motor's approach provides valuable reference for BMW. Meyer emphasized that when driving, the driver needs immediate feedback to understand the status of the vehicle, and the simulated shifting and sound effects functions of Hyundai IONIQ 5 N exactly meet this need. He said these features provide drivers with an immersive experience, allowing them to better feel the vehicle's performance and response. [fenye]

**Improved driving experience of electric vehicles** Frank van Meer further elaborated that pure electric vehicles, due to their single-speed gearbox, lack of sound effects and emotional stimulation, make it difficult for drivers to accurately perceive vehicle speed. To this end, BMW’s M division is developing simulated shifting and sound effects functions to make up for this shortcoming. He firmly believes that these functions will help drivers establish a deeper connection with their vehicles and enhance driving pleasure. [fenye]

**BMW M Division Electric Cars: Expected Excellent Performance** BMW’s M division has been working on simulated shifting functions for electric vehicles for many years and has made a major breakthrough. M division chief Frank van Meer revealed that the first high-performance electric car based on a new platform is expected to arrive in 2026 or 2027. This highly anticipated model will be equipped with a four-motor drive system that is expected to produce more than an impressive 1,341 horsepower. With such surging power, it will provide drivers with an unparalleled driving experience and redefine the performance limits of electric vehicles. [fenye]
