CHEVROLET TAHOE HYBRID

Hybrid design is dual-mode, using two planetary gear sets, two electric motors, and a V-8 engine. System codeveloped with DaimlerChrysler and BMW. Offers 25 percent boost in combined city/highway gas mileage over a regular Tahoe. Arrives next year.


GM will be first to market with a full-size SUV hybrid, which was GM's biggest news at Detroit__the Camaro is fluff by comparison.

I saw the 2-mode hybrid system at the chicago auto show. It looked impressive to me. It will be interesting to see how they apply it.
