I read somewhere in the Internet that the Q50 will have an amazing 18 cu.ft. trunk. Drops to 14 cu.ft for the Hybrid because of the LiIon battery.
I am torn between the regular with the large trunk vs Hybrid and signif. smaller trunk! Currently my Acura RL gives 17 mpg around town. Driving 12,000 miles a year, comes to $2800 in gas that I calculated...pls correct me if I'm wrong. So if the Q50 Hybrid gives say 28 mpg around town, it will probably save about $1700 a year in gas so it will take 3 years driving to cover the higher hybrid cost. Maybe more. Hmmmm. Looks like I'll look at the AWD model non hybrid. Though, one sales rep told me last week that the first models coming out will all be hybrid! Duhhhhh.
