Toyota Auris Hybrid

The world's first carmaker Toyota has released some pics of the Auris Hybrid that is going to be fully revealed during the Frankfurt Motor Show.

Visually, nothing really changes from the regular Auris, except a slight alteration of the front bumper. But following the global trend and the success of its Prius, Toyota is now moving a step forward by making a high-scale produced hybrid car.

150 Auris Hybrid will be launched in 2010 for people to try it in real-life conditions. And with the experience Toyota has in this field, we can expect something really good for the little car.

BMW Vision EfficientDynamics

BMW is not very famous for its eco-friendly cars. Yet, the German carmaker has revealed a stunning concept prior to the Frankfurt Motor Show, this beautiful Vision EddicientDynamics.

The BMW Vision EfficientDynamics concept uses a 1.5-litre three-cylinder turbodiesel. But as it is an Hybrid, it is associated to two electric motors which are located in both front and rear axles. The car reached 351 bhp. It's a "little" more than the Prius.

Even if the Vision EfficientDynamics is only a concept, BMW stated that the future models of the make will use the innovative technology developped on this concept. If the design is equally appealing, I'm really looking forward the next things!
