According to this site, the Porsche Panamera will be the fastest hybrid when they will introduce in 2009. It looks like hybrid cars are catching up in terms of speed. Also, anyone knows how fast the new Tesla WhiteStar will be?

Are you in the USA? Welcome to the Forum. What is not to like about a car like that? LPG is fairly easy to find. Those conversions were real popular in the 1980s. The engines run very clean on LPG. You lose trunk space in a car with the tanks. Keep us posted if you buy one.

Which one's are new? All of them were sold in 2007 except for the Vue to the best of my recollection.

Restoration of Early Hybrid by moparbad

I've been enjoying the progress of the restoration of a Walker Dynamotive and perhaps others would also have interest.
 
Phase 1
 
Phase 2
 
Hybrid is not a new concept. The craftsmanship in this restoration is amazing IMHO.

Interesting site, but this isn't a hybrid. A hybrid has two or more power sources (typically gasoline ICE and batteries). This truck is gasoline powered with a motor/generator for its transmission, basically the same approach as the diesel-electric locomotive.
