Opinion on the Arkana hybrid?
Thanks for your feedback on the Arkana! What is your opinion on it as a hybrid and is it worth purchasing now or will the hybrids be obsolete in a couple of years?
Our answer:
Hi Bronagh,
While hybrids may be obsolete eventually, that's not likely to be the case for 15-20 years. Hybrid power such as this is probably a better long-term bet than diesel, but I'd suggest you should buy the car that suits your needs rather than trying to guess what's going to happen in the long term.
