Browns of Richmond are delighted to offer this impressive BMW 330e PHEV, one of the most popular plug-in hybrids currently available and a great way to enter the world of alternative fuel power trains. The technology involved in mating two powertrains into one and become greater than the sum of their parts is just awesome. In this example you have a 2.0 petrol engine, capable of decent fuel economy on its own, mated to an automatic transmission. In addition, the car is fitted with a 12-kWh battery capable of powering the whole car for around 20 to 30 miles. With clever and innovative technology, the two between them can deliver some mind-boggling economy stats. One of the biggest differences between a Full Hybrid such as a Toyota Prius and a Plug in Hybrid like this BMW 330e is control over the battery, in the PHEV the driver has the ability to drive the car on pure electric for longer periods of time and at higher speeds. Essentially if you have a short commute this car can be driven in the same way you would a normally aspirated car but only via the battery, making it incredibly fuel efficient. Unlike a full Battery electric vehicle, the BMW driver doesnt need to worry about longer journeys and having to plan stops, it can completely rely on its petrol engine full time if required. You get all the benefits of EV driving (over short ranges) and none of the disadvantages, this truly is a great way to begin a journey into alternative fuelled cars. This particular car is a little special, not only is it finished in the simply stunning Dravit Grey, it?s got a seriously high level of factory options. Complimented with the following?Enhanced Bluetooth with Wireless charging, Loudspeaker System ? Harmon Kardon, Lumbar Support ? Driver + Front Passenger, Premium Package, Steering Wheel ? Heated, Technology Package, BMW Individual Extended Merino Leather ? Black, and Driving Assistant Professional. Lets not forget that many features and BMW build quality come as standard, inside, occupants are treated to a high-quality feel with that beautiful Merino leather interior throughout and heated front seats. Not lacking in the technology department either, youll find features such as cruise control, Sat Nav, Bluetooth, a rear parking camera with integrated sensor display, touch screen infotainment along with USB connectivity and even a rare sunroof!
