I'm willing to give up a little bit of that smooth ride and luggage space for my favourite vehicle here. |
The lack of a proper trunk on the GS450h is the biggest problem IMO. There are buyers out there whom the city fuel economy of the GS450h appeals to but the lack of a spacious trunk is a big blow to the car's appeal. Of course, I don't think someone who will drive such a car in the city will care about the trunk space much, but still, you'd expect more from such a big car like the GS. I guess this and weight are the biggest problems for current hybrids.
My choice here? The E320 CDI, not the E420 CDI.
