The folks at Inside Line managed to extract a little bit of extra news from
General Motors at the debut of its new GMT900 pickups yesterday. Apparently the General plans to unveil
hybrid versions of both pickups by Fall of next year. The
hybrid pickups will feature the same dual-mode hybrid drivetrain that's set to appear first in the
Tahoe Hybrid and be able to achieve a combined
fuel economy rating of 25 mpg while mated to a V8 producing 365 horsepower and 350 ft-lbs. of torque. The price, however, will be at least $3,000 more than their gas-powered counterparts.
