About diesel / hybrid..

Original Poster

Even though they're not very common in our country, Mercedes has a lot of diesel-hybrid combinations. What do you think about this? I wonder if this combination is more prone to breaking down? I've never seen anyone review it before either.

I don't think it's a fully ready system, because diesel isn't a fuel that burns directly, while the electric system delivers all of its power at once - I don't see it as logical, but why not in the future.

For example, the Mercedes C300de diesel-electric version is really incredibly torquey — there's even a stock version with 700 Nm of torque — but it still gives me the feeling it'll break down quickly and be costly 🫠
