Hybrids use _way_ less fuel than pure-ICE vehicles though; I was amazed at how less frequently I had to fill up my hybrid compared to my petrol car just from the ERS.
IIRC, the original ban was going to apply to hybrids too - in 2035 - but now the government are bringing the ban forwards by 5 years for pure-ICE.
- petre 6y agoDepends on the size of the battery and electric drive unit. Suzuki sells start/stop hybrids with a small battery where the electric motor is basically just an ICE starter. Also depends on how you drive it.
- _ph_ 6y agoUnfortunately, this isn't generally true. There are great hybrids like the Toyota HSD system, which do save some fuel - still about 4 liters per 100km - but a lot of the hybrids are just for compliance and when run on their main engine, they don't save fuel, sometimes even use more as they are dragging all the electric stuff with them.
