The inserts of the original wheel hub of the BMW iX3 have the following main functions

• Reduce air resistance: The unique plastic insert design can optimize the airflow around the wheel arch, which can reduce air resistance by about 5% compared with traditional wheels.
• Bear mechanical impact: The insert can bear various mechanical impacts during vehicle driving and ensure the structural stability of the wheel hub.

Reduce wheel weight: It helps to reduce the use of aluminum, reducing the weight of the wheel hub by 15%, which is conducive to further reducing the unsprung mass, optimizing vehicle handling performance and improving driving efficiency.

With the support of the new wheel hub of the BMW iX3, the power consumption of the whole vehicle is reduced by 2% (equivalent to 0.4kwh/100km), and the cruising range of the vehicle has increased by nearly 10km in the European wltp test cycle. In addition, the new wheel hub also provides customized services, which can be equipped with different wheel hub colors and shapes, and provide matte or polished surfaces, so that the iX3 has a richer wheel hub style for consumers to match.
