VW New Compact Coupe Hybrid Concept
VW hybrids are on the wayWhen the next generation of the Volkswagen Jetta hits the shores of the US, it might just come in a hybrid option. VW is ramping up its hybrid efforts and showing them off at the Detroit Auto show in the form of the New Compact Coupe Hybrid Concept.
A combination of a turbocharged, direct injected 1.4-liter TSI inline-4 engine and a brushless, disc-shaped electric motor, VW's new, full hybrid drivetrain achieves an overall output of 177 hp. While the NCC hybrid is a full hybrid, electric-only capabilities are limited by the small 1.1 kWh lithium-ion battery.
Fuel economy is estimated at 45 mpg.

Volkswagen quotes a top speed for the NCC concept of 141 mph, and 0-to-60-mph acceleration in 8.1 seconds, keeping the Jetta's sports sedan credentials intact even while doubling its gas mileage.
its a very interesting hybrid. can't wait to test one.
That is what we all expected from Honda CRZ! I wonder about the price.
at least 25,000 from what i've been hearing.
