For maximum drive output, the electric motor supports the combustion engine as eBoost. When the acceleration demand is high, energy from the high-voltage battery is used to generate additional thrust and offer an especially dynamic acceleration experience.
In certain driving situations, such as when entering a bend, the BMW 225xe Active Tourer varies the ratio of drive torque on front and rear wheels in favour of a rear-biased setting. This increases the precision during steering and permits an even more dynamic driving experience.
Due to the electric motor on the rear axle and petrol engine on the front axle, the dynamic benefits of both drives and an all-wheel drive vehicle can be ideally united by the electrical xDrive. This increases traction and safety on wet or icy roads.
