    When the new BMW 5er Sedan makes it's World Premiere at the Geneva Autoshow in March. BMW will also unveil a "Concept" Active Hybrid 5.
    The BMW Active hybrid 5 will forgo the larger V8 as seen on the Active Hybrid 7 and Active Hybrid X6 and feature a 218PS six cylinder engine coupled with a 40PS electric motor.

    Finished in Active Hybrid specific Bluewater metallic , The Concept will showcase additional aerodynamic aids such as lower ride height , more scuptured skirts and aerodynamically enhanced wheel covers aimed at lowering drag.

    Concept Active Hybrid 5 will be a mirror to the Production car that will debut in late 2010.

    And it will be priced crazy like the active hybrid X6. I was at the BMW dealer last weekend and he mentioned that at the base price of almost $90k +taxes they will be lucky to sell couple of them in a year. This dealer is in a very high priced homes area. Go figure.

    From the Swedish press I understand that the Active Hybrid models are priced to be exclusive. I have read that the technology only accounts for one third of the premium.

    218 hp sounds like a 525i base.
