A8 hybrid will have a electric motor with a 2.0 TFSI four-cylinder petrol engine and 8-speed transmission.
With the electric motor (providing 33kW / 45 hp and 211 Nm / 156 lb-ft when necessary) hooked up to the 2-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder (155 kW / 211 hp), output is somehow pegged (is it limited, are the numbers screwy, or what?) at 180 kW / 245 hp and 480 Nm / 354 lb-ft of torque.
I hope BMW has something like this in the future and not just big engines for 5er and 7er
