BMW 502 is the first car of a post-war Germany to be produced with a V8 engine. While the model numbers 501 and 502 were discontinued in 1958, a variety of a range of models, with the same platform and body, which continued until 1963. After losing everything you have reached the end of WW2, BMW may have been maintaining good image built from the purchase of the Dixie car company in 1928, but you have to start from scratch in a new factory in Munich. Despite the fall of this magnitude, it is aimed at the media and the upper classes are the same customers who buy a car before the war s - enter into direct competition with Mercedes-Benz.
Heavy vehicles are 501, closely based on 326 before the war. It has very complicated style 501 baptized as 'Baroque Angel'. Under the body, there is the old six cylinder engine and independent suspension new. It is a very good car, but Mercedes-Benz produces better cars and sells them for less money. BMW 501 increases during life, first with 501A, later 501/3, and the model were developed eventually in a V8 powered 502, a machine much better. These cars do not except the BMW, but allowed to stay in business during a period that was witness to many car companies seem to be more stable. Production at the factory in Eisenach for BMW cars restarted at the end of 1945, with the war BMW model. However, Eisenach is located in the Soviet zone of occupation and the car not produced by BMW AG, but by manufacturing Soviet Autovelo entity. Although not made by BMW, cars bore the BMW logo and sold as the BMW.
Meanwhile, BMW AG making repeated in minor scale, from pots and pans and eventually moved into the bicycle and home hardware. Finally, with the permission of the United States, Government and funds from banks where BMW has been incorporated into the police station began manufacturing motorcycles in 1948. To put an end to the trademark violation continues Autovelo, BMW Eisenach branch was dissolved effective 28 September 1949, and the law was beheaded on 11 October. Without the legal arguments to continue using the name and logo of BMW, I Autovelo renamed EMW (Eisenach Motored Were) and colorless blue logo in red.
501 is the new platform, with a perimeter, double front suspension frame arm with torsion of the spring shaft, and a live axle with torsion springs in the rear. The steering mechanism is similar to the system and save Rack Pinion is a semicircular instead of straight. 501 M337 engine, powered by a development of the BMW M78 used in prewar BMW 326. Four-speed gearbox was added to the engine, but the shaft mounted between the second and third unit studs. Time isolated gearbox placement caused the complex relationship to the action of mounted shifter column, resulting in a vague, also increases the space for the front passenger. The body was designed at the home of Peter Schimanowski. After seeing the prototype, the BMW management commissioned Pininfarina to build alternatives. The prototype from Pininfarina was considered too similar to his design for the Alfa Romeo 1900 salon, so lived the BMW with Schimanowski design. Weave is that Schimanowski has been calculated to be much heavier than the finish of the car that has a dry weight of 1,430 pounds (3,150 lb). Performance suffers as a result, with a maximum speed of 135 km/h (84 mph) and reach speeds up to 100 km/h (62 mph) takes about 27 seconds, which does not compare with the six-cylinder Mercedes-Benz 220.
An innovation is its attention to passive safety. The car offered a strong chassis providing lateral protection medium impact, very short columns with the gear system of the wheel well behind the front of the car and the fuel tank in a carefully protected above the rear axle to minimize the risk of fire in the event of accident.
Before the construction of the first prototype 501, Boning has calculated the mass of the car as designed and realized that a six-cylinder engine will be barely enough to power a car. He proposed the development of larger engines for future versions of power cars management, which received the proposal. Boning started the design and development of the same V8 engine design of the General Oldsmobile rocket V8 to and, then, with a single camshaft in vies above the valve in cradle of operation in the form of combustion chambers through pushrods. BMW OHV V8 engine is different from the contemporary Detroit in the use of the cylinder block aluminum alloy with liners of iron, and small in size, initially with 74 mm (2.9) bore & stroke 75 mm (3.0 in), giving a displacement of 2580 cc (cu 157). V8 development made by Fritz Fiedler, who replaced Boning as BMW chief engineer in 1952.
