Based on the BMW 7 Series, this unique car sets new standards for efficiency in the luxury class. BMW ActiveHybrid 7 is the first car in the world to combine a V8 gasoline engine, eight-speed automatic transmission and an electric motor as a mild hybrid concept.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>This symbiosis of an upgraded eight-cylinder with BMW TwinPower Turbo Technology and High Precision Injection with a three-phase synchronous electric<br \/>\nmotor gives BMW ActiveHybrid 7 overall system output of 342 kW\/465 hp and maximum torque of 700 Newton-metres\/516 lb-ft. Power is transmitted<br \/>\nvia an eight-speed automatic transmission, with the electric motor positioned in compact confi guration between the combustion engine and the converter on the automatic transmission receiving its supply of energy from a lithium-ion battery developed especially for use in the automobile.<\/p>\n<p>Precisely controlled interaction of both power sources serves to optimise not only the effi ciency but also the dynamic performance and superior comfort of BMW ActiveHybrid 7. The result is a truly thrilling driving experience and, at the same time, a unique demonstration of hybrid technology with its outstanding potential. BMW ActiveHybrid 7accelerates to 100 km\/h in a mere 4.9 seconds, while keeping average fuel consumption in the EU test cycle to 9.4 litres\/100 kilometres (equivalent to 29.1 mpg imp) and restricting CO2 emissions to just 219 grams per kilometre.<\/p>\n<p>Hybrid technology also provides new options for the particularly efficient use and enjoyment of additional comfort functions. As an example,<br \/>\nBMW ActiveHybrid 7 is the fi rst BMW with automatic transmission to feature an Auto Start Stop function avoiding idle speed operation of the engine when at a standstill or in traffic jams. A further significant advantage is that<br \/>\nthe air conditioning and ventilation system remains fully operational also with the engine switched off, power being supplied directly through the 120-volt on-board network operating on the lithium-ion battery.<\/p>\n<p>This unique concept of engine management for the first allows truly effective climate control also at a standstill in a luxury performance car, cooling the interior of BMW ActiveHybrid 7 to a signifi cantly lower temperature right from the start, before the driver even fires the engine.<\/p>\n<p>Special displays in the instrument cluster and the Control Display inform the occupants of the degree of effi ciency and the current operating status of the hybrid components. Nineteen-inch light-alloy rims in aerodynamically optimised<br \/>\nten-spoke turbine wheel design created exclusively for BMW ActiveHybrid 7 as<br \/>\nwell as model designations on the luggage compartment lid, the C-pillars behind the side windows and on the door cutouts clearly set aside the hybrid models from their \u201cregular\u201d counterparts right from the start. And last but<br \/>\ncertainly not least, BMW ActiveHybrid 7 is also available in Bluewater metallic exterior paintwork exclusive to this very special model.<\/p>\n<p>Like the existing models within the BMW 7 Series, BMW\u2019s fi rst luxury saloon with hybrid drive is entering the market in two body variants. The extended version of BMW ActiveHybrid 7 comes with wheelbase increased by 14 centimetres or 5.5&#8243;, benefi ting exclusively the rear-seat passengers. And to optimise the driving experience and grand touring comfort for individual requirements,<br \/>\nboth models are available with a wide range of options from the portfolio of equipment and accessories offered on the BMW 7 Series.<\/p>\n<figure class='gallery-item'>\r\n            <div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\r\n                <a
