BMW 7 Series (F01) to get the hybrid treatment

According to BMW chief executive Norbert Reithofer in a pre-release of his interview with Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, the next generation 7 Series, which is coming out later this year, will get some sort of hybrid powertrain. The details of this powertrain are still in the air as far as we know, but we have a feeling it will be inline with what Lexus has been offering and will be decidedly weighted towards power. It should be a great addition to the BMW lineup and may be a signal of great things to come from BMW on the EfficientDynamics front.

Great find! Hydrogen power is definitly the way to go in the end and I personally can't wait for that day to come; but I don't think that day will come for a very very long time I am interested to see how BMW implements its new move into hybrid technologies as a stop-gap measure until the day we see hydrogen Cmon BMW give us some more details!
