The BMW blog reported (http://www.bmwblog.com/2015/07/13/2017-bmw-5-series-arriving-with-3-plug-in-hybrids/) earlier this month that the 2017 BMW 5-Series will be offered with three plug-in hybrid options. The launch of one or more of these plug-in cars in global markets could be as early as December 2016. Stories about these models first emerged late last year, and add to a growing roster of BMW EVs and plug-in hybrids expected in the next couple of years.
BMW platforms—for both 5- and 7-series—are not only introducing these plug-in variants, but will employ the use of lightweight materials, including carbon fiber. In this sense, the technology strategy for the company’s innovative i brand is migrating to, and melding with, more mainstream models.
