Re: Why doesnt Hummer make a hybrid?
Well if they give it the exact same engine as the 08 h2, and the 6 speed transmission but it just has the hybrid batteries in addition, it could run the engine on 4 cylinders alot of the time through displacement on demand plus the hybrid battery. They even could have a switch to turn off hybrid mode for offorading if needed.
Also since the escalade is the same engine pretty much offering it in this and they have another hybrid model, that all upscale people would go crazy over. Think of all the celebrities who driver prius which are nothing like all the other cars they drive, they drive it just for image.
Also to note, alot of times when a hybrid model comes out right away they sell for MSRP or over MSRP, sales could double, and be making more money per sale.
