agreed but I'll wait till they localize and bring down the price. BTW I was reading someplace that the hybrid tech in the Prius is better then the Honda Civic. That's because the electric motor of the Prius actually powers the car up to a certain speed with the engine off as opposed to the Honda where the engine always stays on and motor just gives it a push. That is why the Prius is more fuel efficient and more expensive.
BTW 2009 or so Honda is expected to come out with another cheap small hybrid - maybe Ill wait for that. |
