28 Sep 2011|3,428 views
The X6 ActiveHybrid was launched in 2009, and was targeted mainly at the North American market, but poor sales of the hybrid crossover meant that BMW had decided to discontinue the car in the US, according to Dave Buchko, a spokesperson for BMW North America.The X6 ActiveHybrid had a horsepower output of 480bhp, and a peak torque of 772Nm from its turbocharged V8 petrol engine and two electric motors. This meant that the X6 ActiveHybrid could accelerate from 0-100 km/h in a mere 5.4 seconds.
However, the X6 ActiveHybrid’s price in the US proved to be the car’s stumbling block, while the crossover’s 2,450kg weight meant that fuel consumption was not significantly better than standard X6 models. The X6 ActiveHybrid’s US price was a mere US$600 less than the X6M, despite the performance model’s fuel consumption being 12% more.
