Hybrids

Jaguar Land Rover has announced that it intends to offer an electric option on every new model line from 2020.

Just lately there’s been a lot of talk of electrification in cars. Not just electric vehicles, but hybrid power systems too.

Petrol enthusiasts might feel like they’re under perpetual attack from the hum of electric motors at the moment.

Volvo has announced plans to phase electric powertrains into all of its future models.

Volvo Cars will split off its performance arm Polestar into a standalone brand, specializing in electric power.

Thanks to gamer28 for digging up this short-but-sweet interview by AOL Autos with Kazunori Yamauchi, as he discusses the role that hybrid cars will play in Gran Turismo 5. Most notably, he also mentions you’ll be able to “tune” hybrids – with the recommendation of turbo-charging the new Honda CR-Z which will be featured in the game.
