Thanks for that GPZ. Pretty amazing driving. Would love to give it a try---- in someone else's Hi-Jet.

That is an amazing video! I have to face book it

I think Ernie needs a rear wing

An electric motor and huge battery pack is seriously tempting

WTF has that do do with the price of fish

Does HJ mean a Radio Controlled one Perhaps ? Safer than driving it --- but less fun.

Petrol engines are slowly turning into the past like steam engines.

Hhhhmmm !! A bit like Rich, you have lost me there HJ

To me, the name Daihatsu Hi-Jet Prius just doesnt seem to have the right ring to it? What say you Rich ??
I agree that electric motors have their place especially as an electric motor develops maximum power at stall and thus gives them incredible acceleration over a petrol engine.( The old London Trolley buses were one of the fastest accelerating vehicles on the road in the Fifties).

But no lovely raspy stainless steel exhaust system generated gorgeous exhaust note to prick your ears up to HJ ?? To quote a certain Mr Macenroe

"You cannot be serious Man".

When the motors are responsive and the batterys can keep up and have a bit of decent range then I may be tempted but at the mo not for me and a petrol engine will always be with me no matter what.
