The full-hybrid "Beijing Olympic Model Car" - the Besturn B70HEV - was unveiled while other models of the FAW Besturn brand were named at the Besturn launch ceremony.

FAW's hybrid electric Besturn B70HEV model features the adequate energy conversion equipment (like a diesel engine), energy storage device and power motor as its hybrid power plant. As an energy-efficiency and eco-friendly model, the Besturn B70HEV is equipped with an engine capable of 6.0L/100km, able to save fuel by 42.8% compared to other automatic-transmission sedans of the same kind.

The new FAW Besturn series is seen as the "best turn" for the brand to start a new generation of car-making. FAW will release more details on the car at the Beijing show this month. In the meantime, company officials have announced plans to invest $300 million in a new production facility to build the Besturn models in 2009.
