Car Moon

The latest in Mercedes' F X00 research series is called the Style. Can you guess what they're concentrating on? Clearly it looks good, and probably foreshadows where the next CLS is going (or possibly the rumored C-baby CLS).Here's what it is: the F800 Style is a CLS-like hybrid concept that Mercedes claims can hit 100km/h in 4.8 seconds and reach a top speed of 250 km/h (155mph). Quick. As for efficient?

Just because it's meant to foreshadow future design themes, that doesn't mean it's not green. After all, this is Geneva and we're all living in the 21st century.

That means its power train consists of a 272-horse V6 connected to a 109-horsepower electric motor powered by a lithium-ion battery that can be recharged at home (or at those recharging stations all these other plug-ins use). Much like other electric motors, output here has been limited; actual output is around 136 horsepower.
