A turbocharged Volkswagen Jetta Hybrid has just set the record for ‘Hybrid Speed Record’ at the Bonneville Salt Flats after it went 185.394-mph.It’s the fastest speed ever achieved by a production-based hybrid out on the Salt Flats.The Jetta Hybrid was modified according to Southern California Timing Association (SCTA) rules, helping the 1.4-liter turbocharged TSI four-cylinder engine hit 150-hp while mated to an electric motor that generates 27-hp.The high-speed pass was done on a seven-speed DSG dual-clutch automatic transmission.
