BMW is not resting on its laurels. In April 2008, BMW of Peabody will be introducing the BMW X6 Sports Activity Coupe to New England. The 2008 X6 will be equipped with BMW’s new Active Hybrid engine. BMW Active Hybrid represents all future BMW hybrid technologies and plays a major role in BMW EfficientDynamics. The aim of BMW Active Hybrid is twenty percent less fuel consumption and emissions.
According to BMW of Peabody General Manager Marshal Cabot, “The Active Hybrid technology shows BMW’s commitment to give US consumers green alternatives that reduce pollution but still provides an engine that delivers the BMW driving experience. The 2008 BMW X6 is just the first in a new line of BMW cars that will feature environmentally friendly technology.”
For BMW, the term hybrid represents the intelligent management of energy flows within the vehicle. Based on a modular hybrid drive system, optimally chosen hybrid components are integrated tailored to the vehicle type. BMW Active Hybrid is not just one single Drivetrain, but a modular system that can be adapted to suit a variety of needs. This allows it be applied to different types of BMW vehicles without diluting their different characters. The key components are: an internal combustion engine, a transmission unit featuring one or two electric motors, the batteries, power electronics and the electronic control system.
