CNET SLIDE SHOW: Chicago Auto Show
Chicago Auto Show: hybrids on parade
The Chicago Auto Show is physically the largest auto show in the United States, with 1.2 million square feet of exhibit space. The show floor was home to 48 auto manufacturers showing off their latest productions and concept-car technology. But we were mostly impressed by the way this show put the range of hybrid-car choices into perspective.


Slide 11 of 11
A really upscale hybrid
Mercedes Benz will soon introduce perhaps the most unlikely hybrid: the company's flagship S-Class sedan. Its electric motor will be mated to a 340-horsepower diesel V8 engine. Mercedes will likely be able to claim the title of the most powerful hybrid. The car is expected to deliver around 34 miles per gallon when it debuts as a 2006 model.
