Diesel versions will also be available in the production versions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The concept\u2019s powertrain also consists of an electric motor that drives the car\u2019s rear wheels with a power output of 67bhp alone and is capable of travelling for up to 18 miles before its lithium ion battery, mounted in the floor of the vehicle, requires charging from a plug-in station.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The overall combination of the electric and petrol powered engines make it an AWD (all wheel drive) vehicle, however, entry-level versions of the Tourer are expected to be front-wheel drive alone.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">Spacious Interior<\/h3>\n<p>The designers at BMW said that the C.A.T. was designed from the inside to out which has lead to a very spacious interior similar to the <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/BMW_X5\" rel=\"nofollow\">X5<\/a> but without the huge exterior &#8211; possible thanks to the choice of a transverse mounting engine, which also creates a shorter bonnet.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The majority of the cabin features cream leather with a darker soft-leather on the dashboard and touches of contrasting fluorescent orange trim that give the car a futuristic appearance &#8211; reminiscent of the vehicles in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/media\/rm2817308672\/tt1104001\" rel=\"nofollow\">Tron Legacy<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">To maximise functional space within the car, the German designers have allowed the rear seats to fold down and form a completely flat load area &#8211; perfect storage for your board if you\u2019re a keen surfer like the guy in BMW\u2019s promo video.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">Impressive Additions<\/h3>\n<p>Alongside the expected gadgets and gizmos (8 inch display for sat nav and car systems, portable device plug in ports for back seat travellers) the Tourer also has an impressive glass roof that uses cool shade technology, allowing the driver or passengers to adjust how much light they\u2019d like to let into the car.<\/p>\n<p>This feature is presented in the second of BMW\u2019s videos but with a autumn pattern which questions whether or not there is a customisable option included with this innovation?<\/p>\n<p>As well as a high-spec roof, the concept was also presented with 20 inch alloys, slimline door handles, and smooth bodywork that broke away from the ugly conventions of traditional bumpers, however, these are said to be altered in the actual production car to provide the standard version of these features.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Summary<\/h2>\n<p>Although the move to a front-wheel-drive is one that may be frowned upon by fans of the Bavarian Motor Works, the Concept Active Tourer is an impressive vehicle that offers a powerful option to family car owners with its masses of interior space and compact body size.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, it\u2019s CO2 emission rating and expected fuel economy is not to be sniffed at as this car could meet the demand for vehicles with greater mpg in a world if constantly hiking fuel prices.<\/p>\n<p><b>BMW\u2019s Concept Active Tourer is expected for release in 2014.<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Munich manufacturer\u2019s unconventional move to producing a FWD with a transversely mounted engine was reported as a U-turn on the company\u2019s long-standing belief in longitudinally mounted, rear-wheel drives as the best option for a balanced and dynamic driving experience.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"btn-secondary entries-readmore\" href=\"https:\/\/www.service4service.co.uk\/news\/bmw\/exciting-new-vids-of-bmw-concept-active-tourer\/\" title=\"Read more\">Read more<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":1437,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[7,8,6,10,9],"class_list":["post-239","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bmw","tag-1-series","tag-b38-engine","tag-concept-active-tourer","tag-concept-cars","tag-hybrid-cars"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Exciting New Videos of BMW Concept Active Tourer<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Have you seen these exciting new videos of the BMW Concept Active Tourer?
