Audi A8 Hybrid: Live impressions from Geneva Motor Show

Audi A8 Hybrid
Some more nice live impressions of the Audi A8 Hybrid from the Geneva Motor Show.
Based on the 2011 Audi A8 (pictured), which itself just broke cover a few months ago, the A8 Hybrid is expected to be a full two-mode hybrid capable of moving itself under engine power, electrical power or a combination of both. While Audi plans to bypass "mild" hybrids that can't move under electrical power, the A8 Hybrid is not expected to be a range-extened electric vehicle, one that uses its gasoline engine only as a generator. The A8 Hybrid's engine will most likely still be connected to the wheels.
