"Such is the case with the BMW ActiveHybrid 3, which offers up 340 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque from its 3.0-liter twin-turbo inline six and electric motor combination – useful gains from the 300 hp and 300 lb-ft in the 335i. Those added ponies allow the Hybrid 3 to hit 62 miles per hour in just 5.3 seconds, a .2-second improvement, according to the automaker, over the thirstier 335i."

Is this correct? Assumed that BMW moved over to "twin power" across the range

You are correct, it uses the twin power turbo.

The 225 kW/306 hp six-cylinder in-line engine with BMW TwinPower Turbo technology in the BMW 3 ActiveHybrid is the same unit renowned for its freerevving capability, pulling power and efficiency in the BMW 335i. The electric motor, meanwhile, develops 40 kW/55 hp and is supplied with energy by a high-voltage lithium-ion battery integrated underneath the luggage area.
