March 3, 2008 - At the Geneva auto show today, General Motors took the wraps off what could be Saab’s entry into the super-fuel-efficient small-car wars.
It’s the 9-XbioHybrid concept, a two-door coupe powered by a small turbocharged gasoline engine that has a mild hybrid system. GM estimates fuel economy at 48 mpg on gasoline and 36 mpg on E-85.
” Our goal is to offer a portfolio that has something for everyone,” said Bob Lutz, GM’s vice chairman.
The concept car has some neat touches, including solar panels on the roof that recharge the battery pack for the hybrid system.
