VANOS is an acronym using the first letters in the German words VAriable NOckenwellen Steuerung.
In addition, it uses BMW's VANOS camshaft timing on both the intake and exhaust cams, and piezo direct injectors that deliver fuel to the cylinders at 200 bar.
Due on sale in the UK in May, the car's commendable performance is due in part to the use of VANOS and Valvetronic technology.
