Discover the practical world of plug-in hybrid vehicles. They provide you with complete flexibility for everyday life and travel, thanks to their combination of electric motor and combustion engine. Find out more about the wealth of benefits offered by these innovative vehicles.
THE BENEFITS OF HYBRID VEHICLES.
LOWER EMISSIONS.
Plug-in hybrid vehicles are more environmentally friendly than conventional petrol and diesel vehicles. They cover distances of up to 100 km purely on electricity, with no emissions on shorter trips or around town, reducing your carbon footprint on the road.
LONG RANGE.
Plug-in hybrid vehicles adapt to your everyday life. If the all-electric range is insufficient for your journey, then the combustion engine automatically kicks in. This makes plug-in hybrids more flexible on longer journeys and independent of the regional charging infrastructure.
CONVENIENT ELECTRIC CAR CHARGING AT HOME.
Simply and easily charge a plug-in hybrid vehicle at home, just like an all-electric car. Clearly this is practical, at the same time saving costs and CO2 emissions compared to a combustion engine vehicle. So now you can simply and conveniently enjoy the benefits of environmentally-conscious mobility.
FLEXIBLE. INTELLIGENT. BMW HYBRID.
COMPLETE FLEXIBILITY.
Conveniently charge your vehicle throughout Europe within one of the largest charging networks. Cover distances of up to 100 kilometres emission-free by using the electric motor. The combustion engine automatically kicks in when you need it to.
RECOVER ENERGY WHEN COASTING OR BRAKING.
Your vehicle regenerates energy when you brake or take your foot off the accelerator. This, in turn, converts kinetic energy into electricity, which charges your battery and increases the range of the plug-in hybrid.
BATTERY OPTIMISATION AND CONVENIENCE.
Precisely set the temperature inside your car in advance. Preconditioning your stationary vehicle is a practical feature, both in summer and in winter. You and your passengers will benefit from enhanced comfort in the vehicle at the start of your journey.
HOW PLUG-IN HYBRIDS WORK.
Plug-in hybrid cars have two drives: a combustion engine and an electric motor. These drive the hybrid car individually or together. The battery can be charged externally, just like an all-electric car. However, the battery is also charged while you drive, for instance when you brake, as the electric motor acts as a generator.
MILD HYBRID TECHNOLOGY.
The electrical energy generated from braking is available to assist the vehicle's combustion engine and electrical systems. You, in turn, benefit from sportier driving dynamics. Your vehicle accelerates more powerfully, while its coasting function means that you use considerably less energy. Mild hybrid vehicles cannot be driven on purely electric power alone. The electric motor in these vehicles assists the internal combustion engine, thus improving overall fuel efficiency.
