Do I buy a hybrid or non hybrid

[Deleted User 135]

The spec will win I reckon,I drove a focus titanium x with the 1..0 125 unit and it drove great,pulled great up hill like all road were flat,gave a kick in the back,the puma weighs less than the mk3 focua so should be better

Guess it depends what you're used to regards performance and what you want from an engine and the cars handling. Seriously, if you need to ask the question then I agree with @Sparks it really won't matter what you choose.. All are good.

Im looking for a good mix of performance and economy really,I have a 100bhp fiesta titanium b and o play edition with Comfort pack,panoramic roof,style pack,cd player,driver assist pack etc, that is no ball of fire however its adequate,,thats why im looking for a titanium,I know I would miss stuff

I have been on this forum for a while while trying to save up for a puma, also been deciding what trim and budget I want to go to,its a titanium with a £19k budget,the non hybrid titaniums are coming out with absolutely awesome specs including comfort pack,driver assist pack,power tailgate,tech pack, black roof and b and o stereo,yet alot of hybrids are coming with nothing, im looking at keeping this car for at least 3 to 5 years,im hoping some high spec hybrids will come out in 2021 as I cant afford to by new

I would buy a hybrid every time ..... it's not just the milage.... it's also cheaper roadtax (here in Holland) and you have more tork
and so better acceleration .

Hi Paul, I live in the Netherlands as well and as far as I can see (motorvoertuigenbelasting) there is no special road tax for this hybrid car just 143 euro per 3 month. Hope to buy such beast soon

Still cant decide between a non hybrid and a hybrid,motorpoint have got a beautiful stline non hybrid in black fully optioned apart the sunroof from for £20999 https://www.motorpoint.co.uk/vehicleadv ... rch-result

If it was me and i was planning on keeping it for a few years or outside of warranty i would go for non hybrid at least until i was confident the system was reliable, the 125 non hybrid has always been fast enough especially these days and i would think you would still notice the difference from your fiesta.

You mentioned motor point, just check what the car has been used for, they seem to get hire cars/ lease cars etc

I think i have already responded to this post, sorry if i am repeating myself

Thats ok,i will be keeping the car for between 3 and 5 years,my fiesta was a ex demo from vospers ford in devon,and its been absolutely reliable ,i want to male sure when i do get a puma,is that im happy with my purchase and wont feel short changed
