Thread: Hybrid cars what to look for.

I haven't seen an auto one come even close to that economy for its life & average speed, not surprising given how much the converter slips ,

Mine is happy enough at 54kph in 5 gear, 65 in 6th

I am extremely reluctant to get an auto Hilux

How much more economic would a hybrid one be ?

I guess they would only be a mild hybrid as well ???? time will tell

I wouldn't be looking at selling that one any time soon!
