BMW Concept 5 Series ActiveHybrid is a concept which is based on the new BMW 5 Series Sedan. This new concept car presents for the first time the next generation of BMW ActiveHybrid technology and offers a predominantly good rendition of the new BMW 5 Series Sedan in all its dynamic, efficient and innovative qualities. At the same time, it also represents the ongoing development of the BMW ActiveHybrid X6 and the BMW ActiveHybrid 7 with their drivetrain technology already in production.
The drive system featured in the BMW Concept 5 Series ActiveHybrid consists of a straight-six gasoline engine with TwinPower Turbo technology, eight-speed automatic transmission, and electric drive. The combustion engine is supported by an electrical drive system developed specifically for this model and arranged in compact dimensions between the straight-six combustion engine and the automatic transmission. Drawing its energy from a high-voltage, the electric motor develops maximum output of 40 kW.
Unlike conventional hybrid, by combining the combustion engine and the electric motor, both the BMW ActiveHybrid X6 and the BMW ActiveHybrid 7 are able to offer significantly lower fuel consumption and emission ratings also at higher speeds. This is made possible by the power electronics that masterminds the interaction of the combustion engine and electric motor, optimizing the overall efficiency of the drive system as a whole.
A further unique feature of energy management in the BMW Concept 5 Series ActiveHybrid is the car’s ability to adjust its operating strategy not just to the current but also to upcoming driving conditions. To do this, the power electronics from the start evaluate data indicating a possible change in exterior conditions or the driver’s wishes and prepare the components in the drivetrain as well as the car’s electronic system for a possible change in requirements.
