Re: [MBZ] The demise pf Pruis h*ters

Yes, and I'll bet that real world mileage will be far better than the EPA figures, just like with current models. Prius-beating fuel consumption, but with luxury and safety vice a hard buzzy ride. Upfront cost is a little higher... -- Max Dillon Charleston SC '87 300TD '95 E300 On September

An escort diesel or a rabbit diesel would get 50 MPG. A quantum/audi 4000 turbodiesel would get 45 MPG fully loaded @70 MPH. that is 40 year old technology. You mean this one? Interesting! Be great to have one. Gerry 2016 Mercedes-Benz E250 Bluetec 2.1 L, 4 cyl, Auto 7-spd, Diesel EPA

I like the idea of having a back-up fossil fuel engine in a hybrid, I just wish they'd use a sensible Diesel engine The strength of a diesel is at partial throttle, which is not necessary in a series hybrid. I think the _best_ series hybrid would be a small turbine engine. Turbines, gas, and

Re: [MBZ] The demise pf Pruis h*ters

I'll never forget the car review comparing a Mercedes E class diesel with a Prius, whereby the M-car returned essentially the same fuel consumption in far more comfort, safety, and class. I am pretty sure that was with the V6 diesel engine; now that we are getting the 4 cylinder in a Mercedes,
