If EV cars were to be the norm then TNB would just continually increase electric tariff until people start to curse TNB or sold off their EV cars... back to oil burners.

i bet 99% of people looking at hybrid to save fuel ($$)...NOT GIVE A FCUK about environment issues....just a fact.

I would make it 100%. People that really cares about environment issues won't even get a car at all, not to say that hybrid car causes even worse pollution then a normal one.

TNB won't do any upgrade. All income goes to pocket & bonuses. Until they run out of way then they will cry for Gov help and use our money to upgrade. Then came the news because upgrade cost alot, the tariff have to increase again.

Rince & repeat. wink.gif



Anyway, I would prefer pure diesel than diesel hybrid. And diesel hybrid than petrol hybrid.

The CVT in Prius is different - not using any belt at all. Instead I would blame more on the battery weight - the extra torque they promised countered by the extra battery weight. And 2nd on the CVT. tongue.gif

Take the money and invest in Focus TDCi.

Diesel high torque low RPM... but if the gearing is sparser, it will make a balance in acceleration & top speed.

Still invest in diesel better than hybrid. You never know slight modification you can use vegetable oils.

I think vege oil more expensive than petrol...just look at your Minyak Jagung Mazola...LOL....Seriously, one of the reason bio fuel never takes off...palm oil price keeps fluctuating...when it is high, not worth the trouble to convert as biofuel....

Probably I use the wrong words. I mean it can be recycled-used cooking oil. Anyway bio fuel is useless.
