  • In this video I give a full in depth tour of the 2011 BMW Active Hybrid 7. I take viewers on a close look through the interior and exterior of this car while showing details, over viewing of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds under acceleration. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.
    Thanks a lot to Hendrick BMW in Charlotte, NC for allowing me to film this video! For more info on this car as well as others visit www.hendrickbmw.com

    It's crazy how a 4.4L V8 wasn't enough, so they strapped not one but TWO turbos on it....and then somebody was like, "no that's not good enough, let's add an electric motor as well"

    Watching these videos that you make is like going to the auto show. The amount of effort you put into making all of this is far beyond the lengths of what any automakers put into showing off their new products. Keep it up!

    This car isn't made to help you save on gas. As the narrator states numerous times, BMW's main goal was to get power to areas needed more efficiently.

I hope I'm not asking for much kyle because you do great vid's and maybe this can make it even greater =D

  • @prescott911
    @prescott911 12 років тому +1

    @DutchX5 watch the video again.... LISTEN to kyle this time. he explains why.
    its basically a 750Li with SOUPED up efficient dynamics. It gives you MORE power than a 750Li's V8, as he mentioned, and uses the hybrid system to fall back upon and conserve/retain more power than would be conserved/retained by the lesser efficient dynamics system.

  • @ratmtbola
    @ratmtbola 12 років тому

    @DustinTROM In fact BMWs new iDrive system as well as their entire interior layout is one of the most intuative ones out there. And if you want to be your car 'to just be a car' you gotta stick to buying late 90's cars I guess.

    In most cars pressing it once only unlocks the vehicle for some time, then automatically locks it (for security purpose). Pressing twice unlocks permanently.

      +Random Brickfilms "Hybrid" just means internal combustion engine + electric motor. The McLaren P1, Porsche 918, LaFerrari and BMW i8 are all hybrids as well. All of them get pretty terrible gas mileage, but their mileage is *better* than it would be from an equivalent non-hybrid drivetrain - and their emissions cleaner. In the context of a car like this 7-Series, "hybrid" usually means more power and greater performance as well...

    @jsiszero I don't agree. In these days most people do care about the efficiency and gas prices - even in the Audi 8/BMW 7/MB S luxury segment. The problem is that the Hybrid drivetrain's not efficient enough, especially not when compared to smaller diesel engines. In Europe at least, most people buy diesels due to efficiency and gas prices.....
