NEXT-GENERATION EFFICIENCY. THE BEST PERFORMANCE IS TEAM PERFORMANCE.
Can a vehicle become ever-more ef cient while becoming increasingly dynamic at the same time? Yes it can. The BMW ActiveHybrid Ä™ delivers the proof. With its In the BMW ActiveHybrid Ä™, united performance means increased efficiency. For the first time, the interplay of all hybrid components is controlled by the Intelligent
intelligent drive concept, the rst full hybrid BMW saloon presents the next BMW ActiveHybrid generation. The BMW ActiveHybrid Ä™, with its superior agility and unique Energy Management system and individually calculated for every journey. The latest technology makes it possible to drive using only electric power for Ä™  Ä™ km at

Additionally, the combination of the electric motor and the BMW TwinPower Turbo inline Ä™-cylinder petrol engine offers typical BMW driving dynamics,
BMW ActiveHybrid ę and BMW ActiveHybrid Xę, also delivers optimised performance through Intelligent Energy Management. Purely electric driving for considerable while fuel consumption and emissions also impress. For a high system output of ęę ę kW (ęę ę hp), the car consumes, on average, just ę.ę  ę. ę litres per
