BMW to make green supercar
I have always been a fan of BMW’s. When I heard today that BMW was bringing back the M1 I was pumped. After reading a bit more I discover that the M1 is also going to be using a kinetic energy recovery system. This system will allow regenerative breaking for the car. So all of you bimmer heads out there can now look forward to a hybrid M1! The vehicle will be powered by the same engine found in the 335i which is a twin turbo 300 hp 6 cylinder. That is the plan but things may change as it is still in the designing stages.
The vehicle is not expected to hit the market untill 2012 but it should be very exciting times when it comes out. I have a feeling though that Americans may not see it till a few years later…
