With higher energy dense battery cells, the 10 kWh battery provides 25% more all-electric range of up to 50-53 km (31-33 miles) WLTP
BMW is gradually refreshing its plug-in hybrid lineup and here is the new BMW 225xe Active Tourer (2nd model evolution) scheduled for market launch in Europe this summer.
The main change in the 2019 BMW 225xe Active Tourer is the battery pack, which received higher energy dense cells for 25% more range. The total capacity is 10.0 kWh (8.8 kWh available), compared to 7.6 kWh lithium-ion (usable 5.8 kWh) previously. It should be good enough to go 50-53 km (31-33 miles) under the WLTP test procedure.
The powertrain seems to be untouched. It’s still all-wheel drive without a driveshaft (65 kW electric motor propels rear axle). The car can do 0-100 km/h (62 mph) in 6.7 seconds (no change).
