Hybrids tend in general to require less msintenance than conventional ICE cars. Yes there are some who will get problems but that will.be small. The honda accord hybrid for example has been arround for more than five years. The mazda 3 hybrid has the same detuned skyactiv engine of the regular 3 and hybrid components from the prius including battery .These prius batteries cannot even be given an.average life span because they are doing well after 10 + years.

That new Honda accord is very different from the one that has been around for more than 5 years. Totally different drive train and radical new way of setting up the engine and electric motors.

Yes. Updated software too with smoother transition from engine to electric motor.

Also in the 2017 the battery pack is a little smaller so just a bit more trunk space available.

Been watching reviews on YouTube for a bit.

Sauce?

Hot n Spicy or sweet and sour ...

[PariaMan]

Question:

For you guys that are importing your own vehicles, how do you pay?
Can you just use a credit card or do you need to source US$?

[triniboi49]

Was now wondering how you guys pay

[Chimera]

you can pay with YEN

[PariaMan]

Me top.heard US realhard to get if you trying to bring car yourself to maximise savings. The dealers seem to have seized and opportunity to increase their markup on hybrid vehicles

Serious? That's great news!

[drchaos]

Is it? Banks use US to purchase yen right?

[Nperry]

Even yen is very hard to get right now.....there is a hold on all currencies.

Been hearing some talk in customs that government gonna implement a turbo tax in the upcoming mid year reviews. Around 20-25%.
So all those euros including the hybrids gonna be affected.
Not sure which displacements they want to target.
Meanwhile all over the world, all manufacturers are moving towards smaller displacement engines for sake of efficiency.

Govt uneducated as usual.....

Like the only BMWs and Mercedes need premium crap

Everyone going turbo ... so very soon this will be a tax on all new vehicles.

If this true it sad. How the hel they justifying a 'turbo tax'.

[GeneralHonda]

Tax us to prosperity and beyond!

[drchaos]

Even though I don't like it increased taxation on new vehicles should make it harder for people to clog the roads with more cars and reduce the money the government spends on the keeping fuel at its current low price. Everyone should be taking advantage of this hybrid/electric/CNG tax break.

[scotty_buttons]

I get the impression that this 'turbo tax' is to close the loophole for those euro hybrids that are turbocharged. Too much middle class people buying Mercs, Audis and BMWs apparently?

Tax breaks for hybrids and electrics is great; but then putting tax on turbocharged vehicles is counterintuitive.
Unless they somehow limit the turbo tax to ONLY conventional petrol and diesel vehicles, then it's obvious what their intentions are.

I could understand taxing larger displacement engines eh but this turbo tax doesn't make any sense.

Next they might wanna tax vehicles over a certain horsepower.

[kamakazi]

When you say new vehicles are you talking about acquiring a vehicle in general.... Cause used vehicles will still be imported and registered and will still clog roads with more cars

[GeneralHonda]

FU dealers will just bring in more lower end cars that the masses can afford and will clog the roads. Many do not study the price plus interest and only care about the installment. I will not buy cng since where I live has no cng stations close by. A hybrid (gas+electric) is not an issue but I do not want a 3 month warranty.

True these are half assed measures ... happens when your economic policy is made by your financiers.
