there is very good market of hybrids.....i think its not necessary to launch a hot hatch when they already have a type R....and if you see since beginning they said it will be hybrid

^ so we'll never see it here... Aside from the envinromental greenpeace nonsense.. What is the advantage of owning a hybrid? More electrical breakdowns and engine bay fires?

LOL..I guess educate yourself...countries even like UAE is thinking of making electricity from nuclear plant instead of gas/petrol...because that is the future...

on other side its saves you a lot of money on petrol as GCC is the only place where petrol is cheap in UK it will rip your pockets to drive a normal V6 petrol SUV. Thats why they use deisel which is more cleaner, enviornment friendly and give good mileage as well.

Last year I drove a Puris in UK for 3 weeks or so and that car used to me 480 miles on a full tank so that is some huge saving ....

^ yeah talking about the fact it will benefit on the long run and also the hybrid drive system actually can protect the petrol engine from unecessary wear but it costs more to buy and makes the car more complex...
