Hybrid for those who want you to think they're saving the planet, diesels and little fiat petrols for those who are saving the planet.

Bascially, Prius = hatefilled 'economical' box.
And you know that how?
Because you read it somewhere or saw it somewhere on TV?
Or because you have done several thousand miles in one?
The same could well be said of many of the cars people on here drive.....
Admittedly, I used to hold the same opinions of them. But I now think they're hated with no reason and are a good choice of car for many of those who point and laugh at them from their 'glass house' - usually a similarly hateful diesel repmobile.
I'm honestly not surprised that people seem to want the Prius to be somehow faulty,
Its not so much agaisnt that perticular car, its more towards any kind of 'eco' car.
Why?
I've a eco friendly car, whats wrong with that?
the Focus was the 1.6TDCI and wouldn't top 38mpg
LPG aint eco friendly. Just better than diesel and petrol.
Compared to ULS PetrolAbove based on recent tests undertaken at Millbrook
- 11% to 13% less carbon dioxide
- 15% to 80% less oxides of nitrogen
- 20% to 40% less hydrocarbons
- 30% to 35% less carbon monoxide
is it anymore econmical, from a bigger picture world kinda way?
You may get more MPG from it, but it's not from oil so isn't comparable to petrol/diesel with regards to impact and MPG.
