Road and Track magazine always put out great first drive write-ups and I was pleasantly surprised that they got their hands onto an ActiveHybrid X6 to do some road testing on this quick into the game. R&T go over the must know info about the car and give a quick thought on their two bits.
The following are some excerpts
Quote:
During full electric running, we achieved stints of about a mile in light city traffic before the gas engine would activate. Regardless of engine load or speed, the transition from electric to gas was seamless.

Quote:
We achieved 19.6 mpg (versus 14 mpg) during our mixed-mode drive.

I do look forward to a full writeup from R&T, but as far as a first drive report, its worth a quick read.
