Volkswagen Touareg Hybrid

The Touareg's hybrid system uses a 3.6-liter V-6 engine combined with electric motor and battery pack to produce 304 horsepower and 428 pound-feet of torque. The electric motor can drive the car at speeds up to 30 mph, after which the gas engine kicks in. The hybrid system gives the Touareg an estimated 29 mpg, not a huge number but significantly higher than the gasoline-only models.
