not all hybrids have auto-stop, only Honda's IMA incorporated auto-stops due to its parallel hybrid system. During idle, my aunt's Prius does not require auto-stops and the trouble to continuously step on the brake pedal.
Really, i regreted sitting on her Prius, their hybrid system are much more advanced, oh mai, you can even have the option to display the speedometer on the windscreen~! Her's is definitely quieter (with the electric motor running at lower km/h), only can listen to the tyres rolling sound, not to mention better sound insulation... Aiyo, the gear knob so cute~!

She is still getting used to the complicated displays.
The only console is, I told her my insight looks better than her dino, hahaha.
Off-topic, I saw a ct200h on the road last night in klang finally. driving like grandma apparently... but really cool-looking car, with the drl's on and low profile.
different price range car, it is not fair to compare them side by side at all, the price alone justify the differences already.
seriously i found that typical malaysian complains a lot on the car spec, features on those car that meants to be on low spec for low price e.g. NHC, Vios, Insight, but again they are not willing to fork out more $$ for better stuff.

not to say abt foreign cars, some confirmed abt local cars too even they pay much lower price for it for local car. you pay for what you can basically.
a lot of ppl do not remember this "if you pay peanuts, you get monkeys"

if u wants something better, you pay for the premium, simple theory.
