After showing an early reluctance to embrace the hybrid concept, DaimlerChrysler and BMW will join with GM to develop hybrid technology, to be used in all three brands. In a way this is almost seems like a shotgun wedding, as Toyota and Honda seem to be running away with the hybrid headlines.
Unlike the Toyota hybrid system, which is one-mode (a low speed electric motor, with a gasoline engine for high speeds), this new system will be a two-mode device, one mode for low speed and another mode for high speeds.
