Storage concept
An inviting atmosphere: thanks to the space-saving design of all the BMW ActiveHybrid 7 hybrid components, almost no luggage space is lost.
Including the charge function.

Design concept
Precise elegance with the high standards of superior sportiness.
The large kidney grilles, the distinctive shoulder line: the BMW ActiveHybrid 7 has natural presence. Inside: real space finished with elegance and functionality, with visible craftsmanship carried out using fine materials and versatile combinations.

8-speed automatic transmission
Whether in the black or at the steering wheel: acceleration is not just obvious from the rev counter.
See how quickly and easily the eight-speed automatic transmission switches with the integrated electric motor. The additional gears reduce the engine`s increase in revs each time you change gear, guaranteeing low noise and increased efficiency. Gear changes are virtually imperceptible. Regardless of whether you are driving on automatic or manual, using the electronic gear lever. The eighth gear reduces the revs at high speeds. This improves comfort and reduces consumption.

Hybrid new function
Use being at a standstill to your personal advantage. With the Hybrid Start Stop function, the BMW ActiveHybrid 7 saves every time you stop.
This is a first in conjunction with an eight-speed automatic transmission. E.g., as soon as the vehicle stops at a traffic light, the engine switches off automatically and the transmission remains in the desired position. Give the command to move off, and the electric motor starts the engine and the connection to the gearbox is restored. This reduces fuel consumption and emissions in city traffic in particular. Good news for your fuel bills and good news for the environment.

High-performance 7
High-performance storage. The BMW ActiveHybrid 7 is one of the first hybrid vehicles in the world to use lithium-ion technology.
This innovative energy store is proving impressive because of its low self-discharge and high energy density. Yet despite its outstanding performance, the BMW ActiveHybrid 7 energy store is so compactly designed that there`s still room for up to four golf bags in the boot. After all, space is a precious luxury – and not just on long trips.

The most dynamic way of a hybrid
One small word sums up what makes a BMW ActiveHybrid different: AND. Economy AND sportiness. Minimum emissions AND maximum driving joy.
With electric motors, the petrol engine not only operates in an optimal range at all times – the additional power accelerates the acceleration. The measures applied by BMW EfficientDynamics not only avoid unnecessary losses – the energy that is saved is available for dynamic driving manoeuvres.
Every BMW ActiveHybrid is one thing in particular: dynamic, sporty, elegant. AND efficient, cultivated, responsible. Exactly. A true BMW.

Efficiency first
Every kilometer driven, every litre of fuel, every gram of CO2.
That`s why BMW ActiveHybrid is celebrating its debut where maximum effect can be achieved. For the BMW ActiveHybrid 7, this means 15 per cent lower consumption than the BMW 750i. In figures: 9.4 litres over 100 kilometers and 219 grams of CO2 for every kilometer. And with the BMW ActiveHybrid X6, that`s 20 per cent, corresponding to 9.9 l/100 km and 231 g/km CO2.

Stationary cooling
A pleasant cooling breeze to welcome you: it`s even easier to control the right temperature in the BMW ActiveHybrid 7 by using the car key.
Simply press a button to activate the air-conditioning control remotely. It takes around three minutes to cool the interior from extremely high temperature. Thanks to the electric air-conditioning compressor, this can be done without starting the engine, and is virtually silent. As soon as the engine is started, very cool air reduces the temperature to what is plesant.

Boost function efficiency
The boost function provides the perfect proof that increased efficiency can go together with sheer driving pleasure.
Additional torque is needed for acceleration, particularly for spontaneous overtaking. This is where the electric motor`s best feature comes in: high torque that’s there from the first rev. If the accelerator receives a command for sudden thrust, the electric motor is activated in addition to the BMW TwinPower turbo. This guarantees an immediate increase in torque of up to 160 Nm. The additional power is then carried directly tot the drive wheels via the eight-speed automatic transmission, making the BMW ActiveHybrid 7`s acceleration noticeably more dynamic.

To deploy energy in such a targeted way that it is not just used efficiently, it also brings sheer driving pleasure.
This is the aim of BMW EfficientDynamics. And the versatile measures applied not only reduce consumption and emissions; they also increase the superior sportiness of the BMW ActiveHybrid 7.

Hybrid display concept
See how it words: a special display in the combined instrument panel below the rev counter and iDrive display provides continuous information about everything the BMW ActiveHybrid 7 is doing: the higher the bar, the more efficient the driving style.
In real time, of course.

ActiveHybrid 7 energy
Bursting with energy: the BMW ActiveHybrid 7 uses the energy generated from deceleration with unparalleled efficiency.
By using the electric motor as a generator, e.g. Touch the brake pedal and the hybrid management system uses the pressure on the brake pedal to calculate the optimal interaction between the electric motor and the conventional braking system. The electrical assembly thus ensures the required braking effect. And charges the high-performance lithium-ion battery with up to 15,000 watts at the same time. The vehicle`s disc brakes are also activated as support.

High-performance battery
Intelligent saving, intelligent storage: the electric hear of the BMW ActiveHybrid X6 is a high-performance battery that uses the latest in nickel-metal hydride technology, and has a capacity of 2.4 kWh.
An ingenious cooling system selects the right cooling strategy for every climate and driving situation, ensuring the greatest efficiency with reliable storage and energy supply as fast as lighting. The integrated control unit constantly calculates current charge and the available power – the stored driving pleasure, which can be called upon for purely electric driving, or to actively support the BMW TwinPower Turbo.

Electric driving
The BMW ActiveHybrid X6 drives on electricity: up to 2.5 km at a speed of 60 km/h, with short-tem peaks of up to 65 km/h also possible.
The hybrid management system manages the interplay between the internal combustion engine and the electric motors, ensuring your drive is virtually silent and, most importantly, completely emission-free – without compromising performance. The joy of driving doesn’t get better than this.

The motors
Electric motors make the high-efficiency drivetrain with BMW TwinPower Turbo and high-precision injection even more economical – and more powerful.
The internal combustion engine is better equipped to make the most of its optimal load range. When starting the engine or accelerating, the combination of petrol and electricity guarantees breathtaking thrust.

ActiveHybrid advertising concept
You won`t even notice most of the new BMW ActiveHybrid technologies we`ve used when you drive your BMW ActiveHybrid X6.
All the solutions and systems operate in the background, so you can savour the full joy of driving. And for those who want to understand it exactly, the hybrid aggregates` activity has been subtly integrated into the advertising and operating concept.

Brake Energy Regeneration
Each time the brakes are applied, the BMW ActiveHybrid X6 converts kinetic energy into electric energy.
The electric motors act as generators, slowing down the BMW ActiveHybrid X6 – even under heavy deceleration – and then storing the energy generated in a high-performance battery.
