This means that the 308 Hybrid HDi will have a fuel economy figure of 69mpg (3.4L/100km) and a correspondingly low carbon-dioxide emissions level of just 90g/km. According to Auto Motor und Sport, the 1.6L turbodiesel engine will develop 109hp and 260Nm of torque, and will work in conjunction with a 22hp electric motor with peak torque of 130Nm.
The new hybrid model is planned for production and should arrive on the market in 2010 where it’ll be joined by a new flagship sedan with a six-speed transmission.
