So basically they are offering this "Performance Upgrade" kit that provides the extra boost they have standard on the Active Hybrid 7 TTV8 engine to models that have the same engine but with regular power output...
If that is the case, I don't think that for this modest boost in power that there will be too many changes other than a software upgrade...

No the Active 7 is a hybrid- it has an electric motor, batteries and a V8- the name hybrid might have given that a way a bit. The power upgrade is software and cooling based and is not a hybrid.
The X6 hybrid will be here as well, and that is a two mode- so it can run on electric only.
