Hybrid technology has now been cleared and is no longer the preserve of dedicated to the family car, but is ready to land on a decidedly more sporty models. So even if big names like Ferrari and Porsche are working on gasoline engines / electric, no wonder some of the decision in the AMG also follow this path.To confirm this choice by the sports brand Daimler was responsible for mobility and advanced engineering group, Herbert Kohler, in an interview to Autocar. Kohler has ruled that future models marked AMG adopt hybrid technologies like stop-start and recovery of energy dissipated in braking.
No systems such as the Toyota Prius in short. The road is still marked and have to be covered by the German House in 2012 because the average emissions per house can not exceed 120 g / km of CO2. Kohler's words contradict what was said in 2008 the CEO of AMG Volker Mornhinweg, who three years ago said that the House was experimenting with models with batteries, supercapacitors and flywheels (as done by the Porsche 918).
The important thing is to reduce emissions without compromising performance. The German manager also said that Daimler is working on a form similar to the Chevrolet Volt range-extender, but is still far from ready for production. Not forgetting that the test Opel is doing with the SLS E-cell, electric version of the Mercedes AMG SLS.
