Interesting we brought the Toyota CHR 2.0 GR hybrid sport in NZ for £28500 which I think is better value for money free servicing for 4 years with 5 year warranty, AA, etc so far very impressed after 5.5k of NZ driving averaging 5.0/100 👍
I have read in science in school the rule of conservation of energy.where when you transfer energy..there is always a loss of energy..for which a bouncing ball never bounces back to it's original position..so, I sure when you are transfering energy from ice engine to electric energy..there will be loss of energy..and will not be as efficient...so, an efficient ice engine will do better. And this is hybrid...just for the sake of being hybrid..and just because it's in trend..
You only have to compare the fuel economy of a petrol Toyota RAV4 and a hybrid RAV4 (same size engine) to see that's not true. A hybrid system allows the petrol engine to operate at the most efficient RPM, regardless of vehicle speed. And in a system like the one in this Nissan, the petrol engine is only operating as a generator, so it can run at a constant engine speed (at its most efficient RPM range) and there's also very little load on the engine.
@@corkeymonster rav4 uses regenerative braking, when you apply brakes..it does not use your fuel to charge the battery. that is why you get better echonomy in the city in Rav4 than on highways..This is different from the nissan. This gives an average fuel echonomy of 6.5-7..Rav4 petrol gives that echonomy...and that is a 5year old technology.
@@jeeves6490 Yes..even then..it's just a small battery in Rav4..and for nissan it runs on battery the whole time, which is charged by fuel. And it's expensive for the hybrid system. The others don't have this much of a premium for the hybrid..and it's not that efficient either...you can watch the review from Matt, of The Right Car, channel.

The 2025 just got released in the EU and UK.

Ummm But this is _not_ the 2025 model..with a new body due for release in Europe in the next couple of months!!. And here shortly after.
How does the TI epower compare to Corolla Cross Hybrid 2WD?
RAV4 hybrid is a bigger car and mine gets real world combined cycle 4.9L/100 on 91 fuel and it's AWD. It's not as good looking though.
55k for a Nissan. Show the power of consumers and avoid legacy brand and force them to stop price goughin.

@avghosh It does use your fuel to charge the battery, not just regenerated power when you brake.

More like a sales pitch than a review
Although I love watching your videos, I'd rather not see someone peeing on a tree in the background 00:43 -00:46 thanks
