1st time seeing Hybrid engine, hard to believe, u cant hear the engine cranking sound & idling too. the moment you depress the brakes, the engine stops & its on electric motor. the moment you go down from a sloop the engine will recharges itself . electric power assist engine....1300 cc on Fuel & 500 cc on electric.....its hype thing in Malaysia now
No engine detailing was done due to the shortage of time
