would you get one ?
i have to admit i would be a bit sceptical about them.i know when they featured one on top gear it said that they still use the petrol and were sluggish .
if someone offered me for fifty quid to change my car to a hybred i dont think i would.

Most definitely I would, while an all-electric vehicle is still impractical. Reviews I have seen said that they are actually supposed to be more responsive, as electric powered motors can respond almost instantly, whereas petrol or diesel engines have a lag in giving your their power.
