What exactly do you mean by "high road"? Sounds kinda dirty to me??
Any ways, to take the high road is to use a rational approach rather than going for emotional appeal. |

Actually, I'm guilty of posting a wry joke about diesels: High elevation, with its thinning air, becomes an impairment to the compression engine. It was meant in friendly jest, not to cause insult.

If people with hybrids were to try out the modern diesels, I think they'd be impressed, and vice versa also - if the people in the TDIClub were to drive a hybrid for a year they'd also like them. While I have a TDi, I read the hybrid forums (here and cleanmpg) instead of the TDi forums since I think I can learn more from understanding a different type of car. |

OK, now I'm confused - is the golf hybrid on or off? (The above press release is talking about a lithium ion battery hybrid car which does 100km/60miles in electric only mode). |
Re: VW diesels?
Over here in the UK the hybrid movement doesn't seem to have taken up such momentum (mores the pity). With regard to alternativers though, the audi diesels are really popular over here - they give good mileage and are alot more economical than petrol alternatives. I am sure that hybrids will become increasingly popular over here as more models are released and consumer awareness really kick in.
