If you look at the 7 series international brochure, the brake energy regeneration feature was listed as one of the efficient dynamic features. However this feature is not present in the North American market model. Same goes for the X6. The feature was listed in the international brochure but is not in the North American models. I wonder if any models actually have this feature or if BMW just keeps advertising it for every new model but has yet to actually mass produce it?!?

I even looked for this system in the parts database and couldn't find it...
