Honda Civic Hybrid Features, VW ID.7 Postponement, Electric Camaro Speculation: Latest Automotive Updates
GM is prepping its plug-in hybrids for a 2027 launch and mulls over an electric version of the Camaro. The Civic Hybrid promises lively performance with almost 50 mpg efficiency. Meanwhile, VW delays the release of its ID.7 model in the U.S. Get all these stories and more at Green Car Reports.
Volkswagen has announced a delay in the U.S. release of its ID.7 electric vehicle, without offering a new launch date for the aerodynamically designed hatchback. However, the company assured that this delay will not impact the scheduled U.S. debut of the ID.Buzz electric Microbus, which is set to arrive later this year in a longer version tailored for the American market.
Honda announced that its new 2025 Civic Hybrid models, set to be released this summer, are expected to achieve almost 50 miles per gallon. These hybrids will feature a more robust engine compared to previous iterations and will be available in both sedan and hatchback forms. Honda is targeting these hybrids to make up 40% of total Civic sales, with performance levels potentially comparable to the sportier Si variant.
According to recent sources, GM is contemplating the introduction of a budget-friendly Chevy Camaro EV, aligning with its launch of Ultium electric vehicles. Contrary to Ford’s strategy with the Mustang Mach-E, which is a crossover, the Camaro EV is expected to be a traditional car. This information comes from a report quoting GM president Mark Reuss. The question arises whether this move is connected to the company’s strategy involving cylindrical batteries and possibly a more compact version of the platform.
Meanwhile, General Motors is advancing its efforts with plug-in hybrid vehicles, targeting a 2027 release as confirmed by company executives. This move is aimed at complying with more stringent fuel efficiency and emissions regulations. GM has suggested that trucks will likely lead this new lineup, marking the company’s reentry into the U.S. plug-in hybrid market since discontinuing the Volt in 2019.
