I don't know...after that Prius POS, the term hybrid is dead to me. Ruins the car IMO... At least BMW calls it Active Hybrid. That makes it sound good again

sweet profile reminds me of a viper ... and I agree that it is okay if it's a hybrid as long as it has the power... AND THE SOUND!! of course!!... last thing you'd want to resort to is a vroom box on that hahaha

Anyone dissing hybrids and KERS are on friggin' crack (Marc! ). It is the future. You're effectively doing what "that guy" did when the Wright brothers decided to invent a flying machine (airplane - maybe you've heard of it). Basically, every new invention that strays from conventional notions of a product or service is always met with a huge dose of skepticism and even hate and anger. Don't be "that guy", dudes!

Don't get me wrong electric cars have been made to be faster than most stuff, but something is missing without the ferrari sound.

Why would it be missing?!?! Its hybrid, not electric. And even without the sound, if its the future, its better. Period.

Or, I don't know, get a horse...

I like it... I think it will be cool to pull up next to someone silently and make them crap and drool when you take off... Assuming of course there isn't any significant power loss...
