BMW’s expansion of its “sports activity vehicle” line continues, this time in a full-hybrid version. By combining BMW’s 4.4-liter, 400-hp, twin-turbo, direct-injection engine with two electric motors producing 91 hp and 86 hp, respectively, the net result is a 480-hp output with 575 lb-ft of twist.
