Stellantis has announced a new powertrain development investment equating to over $6 billion, with one of its biggest goals being the implementation of Bio-Hybrid technology. What is that, you ask? As the name suggests, it's a combination of electrification and flex-fuel engines running on biofuels like ethanol. This will include powertrains with plug-in hybrid functionality, those with dual-clutch transmissions, and fully electric vehicles.
