Irvine BMW Introduces New Concept 5 Series Active Hybrid
The BMW Concept 5 Series ActiveHybrid drive system offers the first ever combination of a BMW straight-six gasoline engine with electric drive, rewriting the standards for sporting pleasure at the wheel and superior sustainability in this segment.
“The new concept car offers a principally good rendition of the new BMW 5 Series Sedan in all its innovative qualities, all while representing the ongoing development of the BMW ActiveHybrid X6 and the BMW ActiveHybrid 7 with their drivetrain technology already in production,” Irvine BMW General Sales Manager Steve Rudkin said.
The integration of BMW ActiveHybrid technology in a sedan that is already extremely efficient with its conventional combustion engine reduces both fuel consumption and emissions by more than 10 percent. At the same time the electric motor offers a boost function, supporting the gasoline engine in generating particularly dynamic drive power for an even more sporting driving experience in the car.
The drivetrain technology featured in the BMW Concept 5 Series ActiveHybrid allows all-electric, zero-emission motoring in city traffic. At the same time a special hybrid-based Auto Start Stop function offers additional efficiency by consistently switching off the combustion engine when stopping at the traffic lights, a road junction, or in the congested traffic people in Los Angeles and Orange County often experience.
