With the turn of the New Year comes the time for new resolutions, new traditions, and new goals; essentially it is a time to go out with the old and in with the new.  Well, BMW has decided to join in the celebrations by introducing a new BMW vehicle that will be available by this spring in Hendersonville.  The new 2012 BMW ActiveHybrid 5 was introduced to the automobile industry at the North American International Auto Show, currently taking place in Detroit.  The new vehicle offers the best of the previous BMW 5 Series models, while bringing modern updates to the sedan as well.

Most notably, the 2012 BMW ActiveHybrid 5 brings a hybrid component to the vehicle's powerful and noteworthy engine, just as the name suggests.  The vehicle utilizes a 3.0-liter, 6 cylinder engine, coupled with an electric drive system.  This engine offers a total of 335 horsepower.  Perhaps more impressive, and certainly an upgrade for those in Hendersonville driving a used 5 Series, is the fact that the BMW ActiveHybrid 5 can drive purely on electric power up to a speed of 37 miles per hour.  This means driving around Hendersonville in this new 2012 BMW won't cost you a lick of gas!

For more information on the 2012 BMW ActiveHybrid 5, set to hit our dealer lot by this spring, come visit us at BMW of Asheville, located in Fletcher, just a short drive from Hendersonville.  Used 5 Series drivers will be overly pleased with the upgraded amenities, performance, handling and technology that the 2012 BMW ActiveHybrid 5 has to offer.  Stop by today!
