2010 Mercedes S400 Hybrid First Drive: www.insideline.com More Articles, Photos & Blogs: www.insideline.com http It might look like an ordinary S-Class, but make no mistake, because the 2010 Mercedes-Benz S400 bluehybrid represents a major step in the development of the hybrid luxury car. This prototype is Mercedes-Benz's belated answer to the Lexus LS 600h L — a gasoline-electric hybrid that delivers a combined 299 horsepower along with average fuel consumption just shy of 30 mpg. It also heralds some of the most advanced battery technology ever applied to a series production car.
With its public premiere at the 80th Geneva Motor Show Mercedes-Benz presents its vision of the future with the F800 Style.
