It’s a fact that every automaker is keen to jump on the green bandwagon these days. Same goes for Jaguar who have decided to render some hybrid commuters by 2013 or 2014.
There are no precise details available about the hybrid Jag, but experts believe that this Jaguar hybrid will be powered by a 3.0-liter V6 turbodiesel engine and a 35kW electric motor, both mated to an eight-speed ZF automatic transmission. From what we’re hearing, the Jaguar XJ will be the one that will break cover with this touted green set-up — and if Jaguar insiders are right, in the future this green set-up could find a place under every Jaguar’s hood minus the X-type.

It’s hard to say which is the world’s first green supercar, but if we’re taking for granted what Ronn Motor Company has to say, their Scorpion is definitely racing for the title. However it’s not titles that bring smile on our faces, but specs and looks. And boy, the Scorpion has plenty of these. Introduced last year at SEMA and taken for a spin by our good friends from Autoblog, we’re not trying to convince you to go green … but the car looks stunning and performs just as well.
Nestled within that bodacious badonkadonk is a twin-turbocharged, Acura-sourced 3.5-liter V6 mounted amidships. Depending on the spec, the Scorpion can be had in two flavors – 450 or 650 horsepower – each equipped with the company’s proprietary H2GO hydrogen injection system.
