Diesel seems to be making a comeback in the hybrids so maybe someone who kneejerked has been replaced by a thinker who knows it's going to have to be something really special to beat the old oil burning no chance of a fire in a crash, reliable, torque in spades, sipper, lower co2, heavy fuel,
When you look at it most of the petrol hybrids only get near or match diesel mpg so why lug two engines around one of which becomes a drag when discharged anyway,
Had they not demonised it by now we'd be on Euro 9 and not a drop of nox emitted.
