There is a big difference between a lithium-ion and a nickel-metal hydride battery, and everyone knows it, especially an average hybrid owner. Well, you might be impressed to find out that the 2009-bound S400 BlueHybrid from Mercedes aims to be the world’s first production Li-ion hybrid which will offer “compact dimensions and far superior performance” comparted to their rivals.

It seems that Mercedes-Benz is heading for “high ampere-hour efficiency, long service life, and great reliability, even at very low temperatures.” We don’t know anything about its price yet but you should expect it to be astronomically high.
