Mercedes-Benz S550 Plug-In Hybrid

Mercedes-Benz S550 Plug-In Hybrid

Mercedes-Benz unveiled their new plug-in hybrid luxury sedan, the new S550 Plug-In Hybrid, in a press release issued today.

With an output of 436 hp and 479 lb-ft of torque, this new hybrid benefits from the high-tech hybrid drive in both power and range categories. The press release states that the S550 Plug-In Hybrid can accelerate from 0 to 62 mph in just 5.2 seconds and can drive up to 20 miles purely electrically. This is all thanks to the new high-voltage lithium-ion battery with an energy content of 8.7 kW/h and a twin-turbo V7  engine. The battery can be charged using the socket in the right side of the rear bumper.

Transferring the power to the wheels is a 7-speed automatic transmission and an additional clutch integrated between the gas engine and electric motor. This clutch is the main linking point between the two energy sources, and is uncoupled when the gas engine is not in use.
