Top Gear war on hybrids
July 5th, 2008
Top Gear, the most popular TV programme in the world, has a distinct dislike for hybrids. From the main presenter Clarkson:
You may save the planet with this car. But you could well lose a leg in the process. You will certainly lose all your friends because to justify your significant £7,000 purchase you will need to explain, loudly and often, that it uses no fuel, that you simply charge it up at night – using power from a power station.
There are a range of cars that are cheaper to run and better for the environment than hybrids – any small to mid-sized diesel or petrol car. Well this time Top Gear have the Toyota Prius versus the BMW M3 – which is more fuel efficient?
