BMW 3-series eDrive

摘要

FOLLOWING THE UNVEILING of the showroom-bound X5 eDrive, BMW has now revealed plans for a second plug-in hybrid based around a regular production model: the 3-series. The firm claims that the 3-series eDrive will set new standards for fuel efficiency when it goes on sale in Europe next September. The new car, which indirectly replaces the non-plug-in ActiveHybrid 3, runs a petrol-electric hybrid system similar to that used by the X5 eDrive. But rather than providing drive to all four wheels like it does in the upmarket SUV, it sends drive exclusively to the rear.
