-
Hello, we are a group of JC1 students donig a PW on Hybrid Cars like Toyota Prius. Please help us on our survey here.
What do you think of hybrid cars? Would you buy one? How do you think the government can help to improve hybrid car uptake in Singapore?
Thanks ppl =) -
Hey, you try to snook me is it? Your survey also cannot go in, how to do survey?????
-
oooh complete confidentiality, heeheehee...
*goes to do the survey* -
1st of all...no offense 2 hybrid car owners....so what if u get one? its not that economical,it costs ALOT more than a norm car but the build quality is the same as like a norm toyota....and 3rdly the emissions are still abt the same...when u buy one all u are doing is that u can go rnd tell yrself that I've got the same car as leonardo decaprio,keanu reeves,cameron diaz and robin williams....Originally posted by stompie666:Hello, we are a group of JC1 students donig a PW on Hybrid Cars like Toyota Prius.

go do the project work properly..
surveys do not give you facts...
a hybrid car may actually cause more pollution than a normal car.. it already takes a crapload more energy to produce it.. that is also part of the "emissions" of the thing..
it's like those idiots buying "organic food"... where they get the damned thing flown all the way across the world.. adding to the pollution and greenhouse gases..
go do the project work properly... go to a library and research -
People should just ride bicycles. It's not like SG is very big. And most of the time when I'm on the bus looking out at cars on the road, there's only 1 person - the driver - inside.

80k its overpriced wad...dun u think so???its so slow that a child can cross the street....grow into puberty and pick up the ball and u would nt have even arrived to knock him downOriginally posted by TwinTurbo_Supra:i thought it costs around 80k? you kena too much influence from clarkson already lah. and diesels do a vetter job...cheaper 2 run,more economical and lower in emissions... -

surveys only tell you what the person THINKS about the car..
if you want to sell the car, sure... do the survey....
but if you want facts, like most JC1 project work would want, a survey is the silliest way to get the factsOriginally posted by Eragon:wat do u knw abt Statistics analysis?

I think the ST mentioned some time ago, that last time Dr Yaccob Ibrahim (Minister for Environment) was the only person who owned a Toyota Prius in the whole of Singapore
-
i am tinking of doing CNG... adding a 1-2k mod.. then makes your car be able use either Compress Natural Gas or petrol instead of solely petrol.

Its not scorn, its creative enthusiasm.Originally posted by n0x:juz find tt some of the entries are laced with scorn... -
I think if the students are Smart enough to realise that.......the harsh words and arguments in this thread are the REAL survey result that they ought to take into account of.
People buy cars for various reasons. Only mis-guided people buy Hybrid car thinking they are saving the Earth. The theory of everyone doing a small little part, will add up to alot is another mis-guided concept.
As long as Humans are still burning fossil fuel, the Earth will never be getting anywhere cleaner.
Fossil Fuels are required in EVERYTHING in Human lives.
If anyone can give me three activities/things that has ZERO relationship to fossil fuel. I will award him with a genuinely Hybrid vehicle for FREE. -
For christ's sake, he was the minister for env!!!!! if he didn't "walk the talk", who else will be convinced.Originally posted by sir_peanuts:I think the ST mentioned some time ago, that last time Dr Yaccob Ibrahim (Minister for Environment) was the only person who owned a Toyota Prius in the whole of Singapore Must lead by example mah. Just like when new water was launched, the ministers must drink in front of national tv to show tat it's not "sai jui".
Who knows, after the fanfare died down, he has already dumped his prius for a Merc S600

Looks more like a market research project to me, Bear - we all know facts have bugger-all to do with those.Originally posted by the Bear:go do the project work properly..

This ought to be entertaining. -
Anyway, back to the topic. Why the hell would I want to get a hybrid? Driving with that electric motor is like walking about when your foot's asleep. I gladly handed the keys back after a day's driving in a Prius.
