Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey,01/01/2010 On the heels of the X6 Active Hybrid, BMW announced the production version of the new BMW Active Hybrid at the Frankfurt IAA 7 (IAA) in September last year. 2011 BMW ActiveHybrid 7 are to reach the American shores in the second quarter of 2010. Based on the latest BMW 7 series, this unique vehicle sets new standards for performance and efficiency in the premium segment.
A symbiosis of an updated twin-turbo, direct High Precision Injection, V8 engine with three-phase synchronous electric motor, the BMW ActiveHybrid 7 ft on a combined output of 455 hp and a maximum torque of 515 lb-. Power is transferred through an 8-speed automatic transmission with the electric motor between the engine and torque converter. This gets its supply of electricity from a lithium-ion battery developed specifically for this car.
to maximize interaction between two precisely controlled energy, efficiency and dynamic performance of the BMW ActiveHybrid 7th The result is a unique driving experience that presents the performance of advanced hybrid technology. The BMW ActiveHybrid 7 accelerated to 60 km / h in 4.7 seconds, making it the fastest hybrid world. In the meantime, the fuel provides about 15-17% better than the 750i. Official EPA ratings are available closer to the U.S. market launch.
BMW ActiveHybrid technology offers new features to improve the efficiency and comfort at the same time. As an example of the BMW 7 Series Active Hybrid is the first BMW with an automatic transmission car stopped Start Stop function to maximize the efficiency by avoiding idling engine. Another advantage is that the air conditioning and ventilation fully functional when the vehicle is stopped and the engine is turned off. In this case, the power supply directly from the 120-volt electrical system of lithium-ion battery powered.
to inform Special displays in the instrument panel and the central display, the passengers on the degree of efficiency and the current status of the hybrid components. The ActiveHybrid 7 from the 750i by the aerodynamic line of ten-spoke 19-inch alloy wheels distinguish Aero, the name and model on the log, C-pillars and cutouts on the door.

BMW hybrid technology used because it can effectively contribute to reducing fuel consumption and emissions. In general, the savings potential of hybrid technology increases the capacity of the internal combustion engine interact with the system. In the case of the BMW ActiveHybrid 7 precise coordination of the electric motor and the V8 is the efficiency of the optimization of combustion under all circumstances.
Intelligent energy production, storage and use of electrical energy.
The Active Hybrid concept stores energy in a compact, high performance lithium-ion battery. The processes of charging a battery, the power of the electric motor and electrical accessories, from a control unit, which managed specifically for the BMW ActiveHybrid 7^th.
