Genuine BMW 550e xDrive Hood Latch

The BMW 550e xDrive's Hood Latch is designed to be effective at any road speed. It keeps the hood secure and locked but still allows a soft opening for easy access when something needs repairing or checking underneath. The BMW Hood Latch is made of rugged steel jaws and a light composite shell for corrosion protection and vibration resistance for long-term reliability. The dual-stage design features a primary catch that releases by cable and a flip-up secondary Hood Latch that prevents abrupt pop-ups while driving enthusiastically. Every 550e xDrive, from early builds to the recent plug-in hybrid, owner mounts the unit to factory mounts without modification while retaining crisp panel gaps found on every BMW. The optional lock plates with stainless steel shutters form an integrated part of the Hood Latch, offering theft protection. They also seal out dirt for clean and quick operation. The Hood Latch locks the hood away from flexing on twisty roads while preventing the panel from contacting the windshield in the event of a crash. It is an additional safety layer along with airbags and crumple zones. The hybrid drivetrain of the 550e xDrive has a low mass housing that trims weight from the front, which in turn helps to better balance the front and rear load distribution. The tension of the spring is configured so that the Hood Latch pops crisply without excess force so that drivers of any 550e xDrive feel a confident tactile response each time they pull the lever. Testing at the salt spray facility shows that this part should last longer than the 550e xDrive battery pack, and every BMW driver should want it because a failed Hood Latch can immobilize a car. The BMW Hood Latch reduces drag, protects electrical hardware, and keeps the sedan quiet at highway speed by combining strong materials with precision fit and displaying BMW's commitment to safety in the 550e xDrive as well as all-new excitement.
