The Mercedes Vision AMG concept shows a glimpse of AMG’s all-electric performance car future, while the Renault Scénic Vision concept claims to cut the carbon footprint while mixing in a fuel cell. And might GM electric trucks get two charge ports? This and more, here at Green Car Reports.
This morning, we reported on something GM hasn’t teased s ince the era of the original Chevy Volt concept: dual charge ports, here for fast-charging electric trucks
The Mercedes Vision AMG concept is a fast four-door EV that gives a glimpse of AMG’s future—both in design and tech. We see more than a hint of the recent Mercedes EQXX concept, but drawn into a performance car. AMG also verifies that it will be the first production model on a new platform exclusive to the German performance brand.
The Renault Scénic Vision concept may borrow the name of the bulbous Euro-focused people-mover that arrived in the 1990s, but it’s all about the future inside—with a 16-kw hydrogen fuel-cell range extender supposedly enabling nearly a 500-mile range for a vehicle carrying a battery equivalent to what’s used in the base Nissan Leaf. Sustainability is the theme, and Renault argues that the propulsion combination greatly cuts the carbon footprint of the product.
