    I guess you need a "Prius + PHV" if a Prius PHV does not have enough room. :D

    EDIT: Corrected "Prius v PHV" to "Prius + PHV" to be correct. In US & Canada it would be "Prius v Prime"

    The photo is actually a HONDA hybrid - I guess the replacement for the defunct CIVIC Hybrid - (though you don't call it HONDA, but have a different brand name in USA I think).

    We may not have it here yet. I just checked the Honda auto site for US & did not see it for future either.
    I am sad to see they are embracing the "big bad black grill" look. :( :cry:

    I just checked ACURA NSX Hybrid in USA.

    Wow - only $156,000 there - they want $420,000 here, with a Honda badge. [Both prices are why I don't have one.]

    From Acura's site:

    NSX is the first supercar powered by a bespoke Sport Hybrid Super Handling All-Wheel Driveā„¢, 573-hp power unit that is an absolute game-changer. Engine power and direct electric torque combine for a new kind of dynamic performance, not just in acceleration, but in steering and braking too.

    573 horsepower? Perhaps this is rocket science! :LOL:

    We fly airplanes in America. They fly aeroplanes in Europe. We have a hood they have a bonnet. Tires vs. tyres, same thing.

    Why can't the spell checker accept both "tires" and erm: the other one?

    @Danny?

    ^ I pretty much know that's a hopeless "shout out"...

    Perhaps it does, in the International forum? Just a thought...

    Suspect it's the English (UK) keyboards that make the difference.
