SUV more economical than Prius

By Ant / 30 June 2008

According to a report on the Radio NZ website, the hybrid Toyota Prius car has been exposed as being less economical than a diesel SUV.

The Prius has been compared by a British motoring website with a Jeep Patriot and found to use half a litre more fuel per 100 kilometres than the SUV.

The motoring website also reveals the main advantage of hybrids – the fact the engine does not idle at traffic lights – has no more benefit than a modern diesel with stop-start technology.

This site is run by the Social Justice Commission of the Anglican Church.

We seek to nurture justice spirituality and imagination, and engage in advocacy in all areas of life, overcoming poverty and transforming violence.

We encourage people to think and live “justly”, and emphasise debate and action on local, national and global issues.

Although we are Anglican, our vision isn’t so much about being Anglican. It’s about living justly. Justice is about how you live your life, and being just where we are. Working together, we can all flourish.
