Frankfurt 2009: BMW X6 ActiveHybrid
BMW X6 ActiveHybrid is the first full-hybrid of BMW. This hybrid accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in 5.4 seconds with a top speed of 130 mph. This is a very heavy car but considering that it is a SUV and probably the electric motors are also quite heavy. The transmission is a 7 speed automatic gearbox.
BMW ActiveHybrid X6 got a 4.4 liter twin turbocharged V8 engine. It is also more cheaper at fuel economy with 20 percent less as the standard models. Having two electric motors, it develops 480 hp and 575 lb-ft of torque. Considering that is an ActiveHybrid, it is quite impressive the developed power.
It can travel using only the electric engines up top 37 miles per hour. If you want to save the planet but at the same you would like some great power from your car, BMW X6 ActiveHybrid would be the perfect choice. I don’t really know if BMW X6 ActiveHybrid got solar panels, but if it does, this car would be more than perfect.

Its really amazing. Low running cost. 130mph is enough for Indian Roads.
