Key reasons for this choice:

  1. Exceptional power delivery for high-speed track use.

Benefits of the hybrid system include:

  • Enhanced throttle response
  • Lower emissions
  • Improved fuel economy under light loads
  • Support for stop-and-go traffic situations

This approach helps BMW maintain high performance while addressing modern efficiency standards.
