Hybrid works best in a stop n go traffic. While stopping, the engine will re-charge the battery and when start moving again, it will use the motor because its provide higher torque. Until certain speed when the motor is no longer efficient, the engine takes over.

IMHO, hybrid tech is still not matured enough.
I agree that if TS really want something that has low FC, better go for NGV. NGV car can also run on petrol. p/s: To all, please don't give wrong info on hybrid, and please don't mistaken that hybris=electric car.  |

QUOTE(acbc @ Mar 23 2009, 11:47 PM) Don't buy new cars yet! And diesel are also more efficient than petrol engine due to higher compression ratio.When government introduce the new Euro 2M diesel, I'm sure both Toyota and Honda will bring in diesel version of Civic and Altis here. FC-wise, diesel beats petrol and hybrid any time. Why? Diesels have great low to mid end torque at very low revs.  |
