Thank you for clarifying the point GTO.
I meant test marketing Diabloo - nowhere did I say the Civic Hybrid is an unproven product. I'd love to own one but Im not going to pay through my nose for being environmentally conscious - the govt. and Honda have to make it viable for me. If the car is 20lakhs, I will wait till the technology becomes more pervalent. And I think that will be soon, going by Honda's statement that for small cars they think petrol engines and not diesel are the way forward. I think they mean petrol hybrid.
