Brace yourselves for the next hybrid SUV that is expected to come out in 2010. The Touareg BlueMotion Hybrid by Volkswagen will be the first real production hybrid from the German company and will join the automaker’s expanding BlueMotionTechnologies lineup.
The Touareg BlueMotion Hybrid will feature a supercharged 3.0L TSI V6 engine that’s shared with the Audi S4 along with a new 8-speed automatic transmission. While many would likely be awfully pleased just to see that drivetrain in the Touareg, the big news is what’s sandwiched between them, namely, a 38 kW electric motor that gets power from a 288-volt nickel-metal hydride battery pack.
