It looks like BMW has plans to put Frankfurt 2013's BMW Concept X5 eDrive to production, as evident by this protoype hybrid X5 being tested.
This black X5 has a 'Hybrid Test Vehicle' sticker on the side, and like the concept, there's a flap for the charger plug-in socket below the A-pillar. On the rear, there's a badge that clearly spells eDrive above the left tail lamp just like the concept, although it's been taped over.
Frankfurt's Concept X5 eDrive features a four cylinder engine paired to a 95 horsepower electric motor, which draws power from a lithium ion battery installed beneath the luggage area.
It can run on zero emissions electric only mode for up to 30km, up to speeds of 120km/h. The 0 to 100km/h sprint can be done in 7 seconds, and average fuel consumption is just 3.8 litres per 100km.
