I se figures being posted of 47mpg
can the guys with these vehicles also post your mpg and driving distances in combo (electric and gas)?
Also I suggest we create an official Toyota Prius\Aqua\Fielder Hybrid thread just for these models as it would be a common place to post info like parts and mechanics etc specific to these models
I wanted to buy a hybrid, but ssinc eteh taxes went up Its looking like a Fielder Hybrid (1.5) now
My Prius give approximately 54 MPG or 23 KM/L or 4.36 L/100 km,
at a cost of $0.166 / KM, or $0.267 / Mile.

This is excellent, what year, make and model do you have? are these figures directly from the cars dash or calculated manually over a period of time?

Jonathan wrote:On a side note, I see that the new taxes for hybrids with engines over 1799cc is in effect.
The Prius engine is 1798cc which is below that threshold.
Am I to assume that this model is exempt from the taxes? I had to ask.

Nah mannn I got excited for a moment there. That's a hell of a typo in the Thursday papers then.M-Tech wrote:1599. So full taxes on the Prius.

Anything over 1599cc Hybrid or not passin' in de rush !.
The MV Tax is per cc.
We talkin' bout:
Gasoline powered: Sylphy, X-Trail, Juke GT (1618cc),
Hybrids : Prius, Noah, Voxy, Axela, Accord, X-Trail.
For last year's budget all Hybrids over 1599cc got knocked out.
Now they increased taxes on anything above.
But they will still not stop Ro-Ro. If they do, it is a big loss in revenue and more people will be sent home.
Peace.

Previously no tax was on hybrids. Now is tax, so is new tax for hybrids over 1600cc.
For gasoline is an increase tax at 25% at 1600cc -2000cc
All other cc remain unchanged.

Whenever there are more demands that it can handle, the engine assists.................The AC compressor needs to run.....the battery pack needs to be charged.......you want more acceleration/power.............
And yes, it can climb hills.
The engine in the Aqua, Axio and Fielder is the tried and proven 1NZ-FE 1500cc.
There is no control to use engine power only.
