Mercedes hybrid is fast and frugal

Mercedes hybrid
Sharing its basic underpinnings with the current S400 Hybrid, this plug-in hybrid is again thwarting critics by meshing eye-melting design with all the goodness of green technology. Showing off the firm's latest drivetrain developments, the F800 is powered by both an 81kW electric motor and a 223kW 3-litre V6. Running in conjunction, Mercedes claims this set-up will give the F800 a combined fuel economy figure of 2.42l/100km with CO2 emissions at a miserly 68g/km.
