Altima Hybrid

[sysfreak]

I think i'm being seduced into the whole hybrid thing. I hear Nissan is releasing an altima hybrid? Has anyone heard any more about this? I've been thinking of getting Prius. What's your thoughts on hybrids? And for fun check out http://www.planetkaizen.com for a gear test. I scored a 6.

I really like the hybrids. If I was looking into a new car for a daily driver, I would be seriously considering one. I could never have a hybrid and not have my fun project car too though, I would get bored of driving.

I like the Ford Escape hybrid. Looks like a small truck, retains all of the utility, but does away with the high fuel costs and environmental waste.

i dont know if i could get used to the 0-60 in 13 seconds thing, id probably rather drive a dump truck. maybe it would be okay in stop and go traffic, but i dont know about anything else

Well car manufacturers are finding ways to get performance outta these cars. Just look at the Eclipse hybrid.

Have you considered a turbodiesel? All the fuel efficiency with none of the fugly (if you were considering a Prius). You also get tons of torque.

Depends on how much deisel is around where you live as well. Around here its on par with 93 octane gas.

And damn...Alty SE-R or Alty hybrid...

Well, its not so much that diesel costs less, they get better milage (although many times it is a bit cheaper)
