Unless its aimed to increased power.. not save petrol. hai... which donkey think out of these one. rich man spend 700k for a car… where got care about petrol neeh.
this car should aim for power, fight with X5…

hybrid is wrong path to take.

hai… which donkey think out of these one.

However, obviously porshe cars despite their high fuel consumtion, it is still made of a very small percentage of the total national fuel consumtion. Thurs they wont save too much fuel. At the present only kapchai can reach that kind of FC. Kancil can touch less then 5L/100KM. Its indeed a great improvement of 30%.

The only reason why Porsche would attempt to be green is the fact that in California and Europe, the emission regulation is becoming very strict! I love these developments, I hope to be owning a less than 2L/100km in the future.

Okay, prolly its all bout the feel good factor. 9L/100KM is really much more efficient then most SUV especially some performance type like this one. But still my 1994 wira automatic will beat it even at city driving. Hybrid drive train is a unique option, as it can improve its performance without engaging too much fuel pump. Electrical motor has an instant max torque at 0RPM and maintain flat troughout the entire RPM. This make it a really good acceleration booster. Performance type hybrid it is.

For example from coal(burning, heat), from diesel(burning, heat), from nuclear(not sure)... when there are a process to turn something to produce energy then there would certainly have losses, such as heat. So why they(car makers) are selling hybrid in first place ?? Energy loss except kinetic(hydro) and solar but both of these might doesn't produce enough energy for a single charge! Go diesel/Ethanol/Methanol & anything truely green! whats good a hybrid can offers when electricity are generated from another source… For example from coal(burning, heat), from diesel(burning, heat), from nuclear(not sure)… when there are a process to turn something to produce energy then there would certainly have losses, such as heat.
