2013 BMW ActiveHybrid 3 Review – Video - Hybrid Cars News
That BMW’s ActiveHybrid3 is a sophisticated engineered solution is without question. The hybridization of its well-regarded, and now sixth-generation 3 Series compact sports sedan places it at a premium position in the hybrid sphere – a niche among niches. Presently, there are a couple other midsized hybrid sedans loosely similar to the Active Hybrid 3 and also shared is their 100 or less monthly sales , a tacit giveaway that many do not see their value but that does not mean there is none to be found. Indeed, as a car – hybrid or otherwise – BMW’s ActiveHybrid 3 is endowed with an edge out of the gate. And, it has that BMW panache prized by those who consume conspicuously, or actual car fans who can appreciate the finely tuned German sport sedan shaded green. But here’s the mixed message: In creating the ActiveHybrid 3, BMW resisted the prospect of maximizing mileage with the on-board electric power at the expense of performance on par with its stable mates. Some reviewers have nicked BMW for withdrawing its excellent six-cylinder diesel still offered in Europe alongside other variants besides, but not so fast, says BMW. Source: www.hybridcars.com
