Porsche has decided to go green with the forthcoming Panamera by perhaps offering it with a hybrid gas motor.

In 2011 we could see a softer, eco-friendly hybrid using the same technology that's destined for the Cayenne. Volkswagen will provide the 300bhp V6 which will be reworked with an electric motor, so it can run in zero-emissions mode around town - or pump out an extra 100bhp for short bursts when working with the V6 for urgent acceleration.
Wonder how this will stack up against Lexus' Hybrid offerings?

It's so ugly it's "ulgy."

Nice.

This is so silly that it has to be politically motivated. The tree-hugging pierced eyebrow crowd can't afford it anyway so what is your target market for this one Porsche?

I think Porsche is the creators of UFO's because this car looks like it's out of this world.

After so many people have called the Lexus GS bloated I'm dying to see more people's reactions to this car.

You're right. A hybrid Porsche?

Why is a hybrid "softer?" I was thinking about mind-blowing throttle response and crisp torque delivery in corners. Oh, and maybe get a little more range in between fuel stops. But that's just me.
