Plugging into electric wheels in Detroit

Focusing on alternatives to gasoline, automakers are rolling out more electric cars and hybrids at this year’s show.

Audi unveiled a larger concept car with the same name in at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November. Famous for all-wheel-drive, Audi’s e-tron sends power to all four of its wheels.

The Blue-Will can go 40 miles on electricity alone, according to Hyundai. Gasoline power comes from a 152-horsepower engine connected to a continuously variable transmission. This isn’t really a drivable car, though, Hyundai says.
