Hybrid variants of the BMW 7-Series and the BMW X6 will be started by BMW which will be scheduled to be on sale by the end of this year.
This report is confirmed by Ian Robertson, BMW Sales and Marketing Director, commenting that these two variants will be using varying hybrid systems. The 7-series will be utilizing a mild hybrid that permits the engine to shut down when braking or coasting while the accessories remain functional taking advantage of the electric motor.
