Default BMW hybrid technology

BMW may have just internationally unveiled its crossover off-roader/coupe, the X6, but there's an even more exotic version heading our way.

The company confirmed last year that the new X6 (pictured) would be the model to debut its hybrid technology. At the launch of the X6, BMW remained tight-lipped about the hybrid model but Drive has learned it will use an electric motor combined with the 4.4-litre, V8 petrol engine.

4.4 litre V8 ! -- whats the electric motor gonna' do, work the wipers?

I guess the hybrid label is more important than the concept or the reasoning behind the concept.
