I know that there are hybrids still in China and that there will be hybrids sold in South America, but my understanding was that the hybrids in South America would be sourced fro China. Maybe this is a shift in strategy.

Well looky there!

Thanks for sharing Jim. I don't know a whole lot about these hybrid drivetrains that GM is developing for South America. Are these just mild hybrid systems, or are they more robust, such as the Toyota systems which can run 40 or so miles on battery only before requiring the ICE drivetrain?
