The basic characterisics and features of this hybrid are
1.Mercedes-Benz Talks Batteries, Hybrid and EV Plans: Mercedes-Benz is preparing to transform its flagship S-Class sedan into an "economy" car offering gas mileage comparable to that of the Honda Accord, and that will be only the beginning of the car's fuel consumption makeover, the company promises.
The key change: incorporating a new lithium-ion battery that Mercedes-Benz parent Daimler AG has been developing since the early 1990s.Due largely to technology advances achieved in the last six years, Mercedes-Benz engineers say, the battery is now ready for mass production and will be used first in the S400 BlueHybrid , a new gasoline-electric S-Class sedan slated to go on sale after the summer of 2009.Mercedes-Benz S400 BlueHybrid is first production lithium ion hybrid

3.Reducing cost of gas with hybrid cars
:The first successfully designed, engineered and launched hybrid car was by Ferdinand Porsche all the way back in 1899. How surprisingly long ago it has been since the first hybrid car and only of recent years have we been able to find a way to bring hybrid cars to the home users. With the continual rise in the cost of gasoline, most consumers welcome the new breed of cars in the form of hybrid cars. Hybrid cars use multiple propulsion systems to provide power. It combines the use of gas and also electric to power up the car. Hybrid cars are comparatively smaller than the usual internal combustion engines and have been known to save consumers quite a bit of money every month on gas. One question lingers on...how can a hybrid car save me, the consumer, money? Well, the basic reason is because hybrid cars don't use as much gas as the normal cars we see on the road. When the hybrid car is being driven or in use, they are recharging their batteries. And when the hybrid car is cruising or stationary, it also charges the batteries. Of course, we've heard of the all-electric cars which use nothing but electric which requires one to charge the car up whenever not in use through an external source and we've also heard of the range extending trailer. But if convenience, safety and money are important to you, consider the hybrid car as a complete life saver. Although not completely certified to be so because the hybrid car continues to use gas (which is not environmental friendly), the hybrid car, when compared to the conventional car, is more environmentally-friendly. In fact, the fuel economy advantage provided by hybrid cars is good enough for the US Government because they provide a tax credit of up to $3,400 for owners of hybrid cars. How can a hybrid car save me money? Because the use of self-charging electrical components within the car means that the hybrid car uses less fuel. Because the internal combustion engine in a hybrid car is much smaller than the conventional car. Therefore, it is not only smaller, but it is much lighter and more efficient than any other cars we've known. Because when the car is moving, is idle or stationary or when the car brakes, it is a chance for the batteries to recharge itself. The more electricity it uses from the batteries, the less fuel it uses. Simple and logical.
4.Next hybrid for Mercedes Benz will be a diesel-electric M-Clas
s:Mercedes Benz will launch its first ever hybrid model with the introduction of the all-new S400 BlueHYBRID, a petrol-electric hybrid based on the S-Class sedan, later this year. Its next hybrid, however, will reportedly be a more advanced diesel-electric model based on the M-Class SUV.According to a new report, the M-Class hybrid will go on sale in the second half of the year. The vehicle will feature the same dual-mode hybrid system found in the S400 BlueHYBRID but in the SUV it will be mated with a 3.2L low-emission Bluetec turbodiesel engine and AWD system.
The new Mercedes-Benz E-Class Coupe which will replace the old CLK made its official debut this week and will be revealed to the world at this year’s Geneva Motor Show. The new vehicle will include the following gasoline engine options: a 204bhp turbo 1.8-liter four-pot in the E250 CGI, a 292bhp 3.5-liter V6 in the E350 CGI, and a 388bhp 5.5-liter V8 in the E500.

Mercedes hybrid leads the charge:Mercedes already has a fleet of fuel-cell A-Classes running around in daily use, and this F600 research car has a fuel-cell stack that's 40 per cent smaller, simpler, more efficient, a lot cheaper and more robust in cold temperatures than that one. Which is all good stuff to bring production closer - and Mercedes said at the show it's aiming for 'production maturity' of fuel cells (though not in exactly this vehicle) between 2012 and 2015.The F600 runs with a hybrid-drive system: the fuel cell output is pretty steady, and a battery buffers the supply of electricity to the drive motor as needed: in acceleration fuel cell and battery supply current in tandem, but in gentle cruising or deceleration the motor acts as a generator and recharges the battery. By using a hybrid drive and a lithium-ion battery, total system power peaks at 115bhp. And it's claimed to have a 250-mile range on its compressed hydrogen tanks. The result, says Mercedes, is its first fuel-cell car to be comparable in all important performance measures with a petrol car - even though all we've actually seen is it driving onto the stage at the motor show unveiling.
