BMW is set to launch a hybrid version of its 5-Series sedan, the production version of the ActiveHybrid 5 concept (pictured above) later this year. However, BMW is about to go greener and is reported to be working on an all-electric model based on the same platform.

 

According to a report from the Beijing Youth Daily, BMW will team up with its Chinese partner, Brilliance China Automotive Holdings Ltd (BCAH), to develop a new electric vehicle based on the 5-Series platform.

The newspaper goes on to report that a concept version of the new electric vehicle will be unveiled later this year at one of the major auto shows in China.
