A hybrid engine (Plug-in-Hybrid), which BMW automakers have equipped with a conceptual model new BMW Active TourerAfter the test, the engineers were surprised by the extremely low fuel consumption per hundred-kilometer flight march. Ecological version family compact from BMW second series It has an excellent sport aerodynamic shape, but this is not because of this, the car's appetite has "deteriorated" to two liters per hundred kilometers of asphalt. Development BMW Environmental Tourer 2 Environmental Car is in the active stage, and before its completion, the company’s management cannot say anything definite about where, when, how and at what price second series of Active Turerov BMW. The exterior design of the car belonging to the class MPV (MPV - Multi-Purpose Vehicle - a multi-purpose vehicle), will differ little from the petrol and diesel versions of the first series of the BMW Active Tourer. 
BMW Active Tourer Couple can recharge the batteries of the electric motor, included in the hybrid power unit, directly from any home outlet. The second, "non-ecological" part of the installation will be represented by a 1.5-liter Twin Power Turbo gasoline engine, developing 136 horsepower. Together with an electric motor having 88 horses, their total output is equal to 224 horsepower with an aggregate torque of 385 Nm. The gasoline engine will spin the front wheels with the "mediation" six-speed gearbox, the rear wheels will be "engaged" by the electric motor, its transmission has only two stages.
BMW Active Tourer Two Series, has an electric generator, giving a high voltage output. It is an additional “accelerator”, which for a short time, for example, during acceleration, can add 150 Nm of torque and twenty additional horses. Such a starter starts the engine more gently and smoothly, unlike the standard one. 
Extremely small appetite for fuel is perhaps the most important characteristic BMW Active Tourer 2-Series. 38 kilometers the car can run on the stock of electricity, after the exhaustion of battery resources, the gasoline engine enters into effect, which consumes just two liters of fuel during operation in mixed mode: the electric motor periodically connects to the process as it is charged by the generator. Up to one hundred kilometers per hour, the car accelerates in seven seconds. These are very remarkable characteristics for any vehicle.
