宝马在维也纳引擎技术大会上宣布，车厂正在开发新的Power eDrive插电混动系统，该系统将应用于中性和大型车上。该系统包括两台电机和一台内燃机。宝马曾在去年亮相的5系GT原型车上曾采用了该技术，车辆在纯电动模式下可行驶100公里，综合输出功率超过500千瓦/680马力，扭矩1015牛米。宝马表示，量产版车型的整体续航里程可以达到约500公里，足以保证长距离行驶的需要。宝马同时还表示，80%的普通消费者每天的行驶里程都不会超过纯电动模式下的100公里。

 

BMW focused on developing their new Power eDrive plug-in hybrid system

BMW has used the Vienna Motor Symposium to announce they're focused on developing their new Power eDrive plug-in hybrid system for medium and large vehicles.

 

Described as the "next stage of development," the plug-in hybrid system features two electric motors and a combustion engine. The system was originally previewed last year on a 5-Series GT prototype which had an electric-only range of up to 100 km (62 miles) and a combined maximum output in excess of 680 PS (500 kW) and 1,015 Nm (750 lb-ft) of torque.

 

While BMW was coy on specifics, they hinted the powertrain would give production models an overall range of approximately 500 km (310 miles) which "guarantees a long-distance capability that is also adequate for large vehicles." The company also pointed out that nearly 80 percent of average commutes would be covered in all-electric mode.
