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.

it just doesnt pay for to do that, the price ot produce would be extremly high, and the price to but would be higher. Youd be paying way more for that, then you would to buy the regular one and just filling it with gas. and arent they coming with an option on the h2's for 09 for the ethnol stuff??? Im sure theres away around this one, but the engine of the H2 looks sooooo jam packed i dont see how they could fit batteries in there.
