BMW ActiveE All-Electric Sedan will be Unveiled in Detroit
20 December 2009 | Green Cars | No Comments
The car that we can see in the image, I think it is the greenest car of the week. When we talk about BMW we have to talk about power, safety and comfort, but also about high prices. These high prices are due to higher quality, but also are due to high fuel consumption. So, BMW recently announced the launch of the second electric car after the Mini E. The car is actually an all-electric sedan with a big trunk(approximately 200 liters).
This Electric BMW was dubbed ActiveE and I think that this thing has happened for two reasons: it is an agile electric car, very active on the road, and secondly because its battery is loading very fast (3 hours via a conventional 240V wall socket). The only thing that is a disadvantage is that after 100 miles, the batteries must be recharged.
Although BMW ActiveE is an electric car, the performances remain almost the same as previous BMW models. This zero-emission car manages to run with 60mph in under 9 seconds. ActiveE will be unveiled next year at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. The ActiveE model is similar to BMW 1 Series Coupe and is expected to have an affordable price. So, for all loyal BMW customers, „Prepare for new ActiveE sensations” !
