Das Sports Activity Coupé

It’s time to introduce a spectacular car – the first of its kind in the world. It’s time to launch the BMW X6, the first Sports Activity Coupe. BMW-web.tv speaks with the developers of the X6 on the North American International Auto Show 2008 in Detroit.

An exclusive look at the brand new BMW X6.

Defined by BMW as the first "Sports Activity Coupe", Adrian van Hooydonk explains how the Concept X6 combines an elegant and dynamically flowing roofline with the features so typical of a BMW X car. The close and direct link of this concept combining the new Sports Activity Coupe with innovative BMW ActiveHybrid technology ensures an authentic match of design and technology in every respect. Adrian van Hooydonk makes a case in point for form follows function: the rear underfloor panel which moves out when required and covers the tailpipes while driving on electric power only. Same applies for the engine compartment which comes with a powerful curvature at the top and a striking BMW powerdome that marks the hybrid components in the engine bay. An innovative vehicle concept and equally innovative drivetrain technology are now coming together in a unique car the world has never seen before: the BMW Concept X6 ActiveHybrid is the world’s first Sports Activity Coupe to feature a special concept of hybrid drive likewise never seen before. Introducing the ActiveHybrid technology, BMW is taking the next step in the ongoing reduction of fuel consumption and emissions. BMW ActiveHybrid is based on a modular concept following the strategy of “Best of Hybrid“ to integrate the most appropriate, optimum components in a form that is true to the values of BMW. The BMW Concept X6 ActiveHybrid, the BMW in the world of hybrid cars, can be driven on electric power only, on the combustion engine alone, or with a combination of both power units. BMW ActiveHybrid is far superior to conventional hybrid vehicles in terms of driving dynamics. The fuel consumption and emission ratings of the BMW Concept X6 ActiveHybrid are up to 20 per cent better than on a comparable car with conventional drivetrain technology.

One of the main BMW stories in Tokyo is about how performance and efficiency do fit together. Before a sculptural backdrop of some of the latest BMW engines and many of BMW´s finest engine optimization measures, Dirk Arnold explains how BMW EfficientDynamics is currently being implemented across the BMW model range to achieve a broad-scale effect. Taking a mid-term perspective Dirk Arnold moves to the very front of the BMW stand where a further highlight of the Tokyo Motor Show 2007 is spotlighted: the BMW Concept X6 ActiveHybrid. This concept study of BMW's first all-hybrid vehicle demonstrates the potential of a combination of the internal combustion engine and electric drive when implemented in a form that is true to BMW. Moving on to the BMW Hydrogen7 which is presented side-by-side to the BMW Concept X6 ActiveHybrid, Dirk Arnold comments how this is another showcase for BMW´s understanding of how BMW EfficientDynamics goes beyond isolated building blocks. The BMW Hydrogen7 is the first produced premium limousine in the world fueled by hydrogen liquid with water emissions. It's not an end solution, but a manufacturable proof-of-concept of BMW´s vision of emissions-free driving. And one BMW wants the world's influencers to see up close, and try for themselves….
