Spyshot: hybrid BMW X6 spotted in the wild

Although it was unveiled back in 2007 during the Frankfurt Motor show, the quirky X6 with a hybrid powertrain has just now been spotted in the wild. French website Le Blog Auto found it on a street in Munich, Germany, where it was not disguised at all, with the HYBRID Erprobungsfahrzeug (hybrid test vehicle) badge on the sides and the BMW badges covered with black duck tape. Not much of a disguise. Then again, the X6 hybrid isn't exactly a fuel miser, either, what with its 4.4-liter V8 engine mated to the two mode hybrid system that BMW co-developed with GM.

Thank God they put a hybrid system on this car. For one it's a useless POS of a car with no real purpose other than a penis extension on 4 wheels. But the fuel mileage on this thing is ABYSMAL.
BMW needs to get their heads out of their asses and make cars that are efficient. It seems it's beyond their reach.

Noz puts it well.
A 4.4 liter toy, with a hybrid label.
