Mitsubishi unveils its answer to fuel-efficient pick-up trucks

The latest Mitsubishi concept to be revealed at the Geneva motor show is a diesel-electric hybrid – powered both by a 2.5-litre Mitsubishi 'clean diesel' engine, and an electric motor mated to a selection of batteries secured in the chassis.

The GR-HEV features an automatic gearbox and an on-bard computer that controls the operation of the engine and electric motor, while Mitsubishi's S-AWC all-wheel-drive system is used to keep the GR-HEV moving on rough terrain.
