Saab hybrid to premiere at Stockholm Motor Show
We might have to wait until
2010 for a Saab hybrid we can drive off the lot,
but Saab will be showing a concept hybrid vehicle at the Stockholm Motor Show at the beginning of April. If you're
still wondering why we're devoting two posts to Saab's adoption of a technology that has been used in production
vehicles for years, we're actually not -- the Saab's technology one-ups the likes of the Toyota Prius by leaps and
bounds, at least where carbon dioxide emissions are concerned. Enter Saab's E85 Hybrid, which cuts emissions down to
15-20 grams of carbon dioxide per kilometer compared to the Prius' 104. Of course, by 2010, Toyota may have figured out
fuel cells.
