That IS impressive. 43 mpg in a large car. I wonder if BMW are considering some of these technologies for the upcoming 5-series components set. I'd like to see some of the applications in not only the 5, but perhaps the X3 and 3-series, as well. Very interesting.

Interesting. But a RX400h has CO2 emissions under 200g/km too, with a V6 engine and it is a 'real' car! So I wonder about the use of a diesel engine. PSA just came to forsake their diesel hybridation, and diesel is not as well coupled with electric motors as they say, especially in town where hybrids are useful.

Its nice that bmw is finally going this way, yet I believe that mercedes has already done this with the diesel/hybrid S Class that due out in 09 that is supposed to get 44mpg. Could be wrong but I dont think so.
