BMW showed off the Concept Active Tourer, a front-wheel-drive plug-in hybrid with a new TwinPower Turbo 1.5-liter three-cylinder engine, electric motor and lithium-ion battery at the 2012 Paris Auto Show. BMW appears to be jumping on the fuel economy bandwagon with the debut of the concept. The concept gets the U.S. equivalent of 94 mpg, with CO2 emissions of less than 60 g/km.

Its like the BMW's verison of the Audi A3!! And this thing looks amazing!

[@GOINFINITI]

Finally a gorgeously looking small BMW!

[@pepene93]

there are plenty of bmws with no power. but this one is hybrid and fwd. if the lack of power was the first thing that made you think its not a traditional bmw, you have a lot to learn

[@Sigrafix]

Sure as hell is nicer than any prius I've ever seen..

[@KosminisKiausinis]

Well technically this BMW Concept is all wheel drive since it has electric motor in the back which sends power to rear wheels. But still it's a shame BMW is trying to fill segment with FF layout car.

[@ManGaribay]

Is this the production ready version of the BMW i3?

[@pepene93]

the thumbnail made me think of a GTI before i read the caption

[@skwashua]

Well, it doesn't seem very Bimmery, but they don't have anything in this car segment. Makes sense to put something out that competes.

[@fantomtuba]

so lets see, below the X1, will it be X0.5, X0?

[@coolsun888]

I would want one without the hybrid system

[@bmwmsport11]

BMW concepts look hot and exotic. But the second they hit the dealerships they look like your adverage BMW.

[@vaztion]

[@allisinthepass]

Front wheel drive in a bimmer..... thats the last straw, environmentalist hippies have taken over the world

[@Road360Rage]
