Worlds First Hybrid SUV Limo


Posted by Funkyguy on September 9, 2008 3:42 PM


Getting a stretch limo wont hurt my ultra sensitive ecologically conscious conscience anymore thanks to Limelite Coachworks. To accomplish this, a Chevrolet Tahoe hybrid was literally cut into two and 13 feet were added in between. LimeLites Mike Williams claims the hybrid Tahoe gets 80 percent better fuel economy than conventional SUV limos.

You would have to shell out a 100k for this baby if you want to own her though. The company says stretching the hybrid by 160 inches was a piece of cake and the next one might be stretched 220. Working around the vehicle's 300-volt drivetrain wasnt too tough, and LimeLite says the batteries power the fiber optic piping, four flat-screen TVs, two lasers, strobe lights and two bars with illuminated glassware and decanters.
