That's a good point and infact if you remember I made an exact same analogy when the rumour starting floating around about a possible hybrid SUV and specifically rumour about Rav4. I mentioned that if Prius is over 8 million , how come Rav4 Hybrid can be below 8 million which is already an expensive model upfront.
I was told by someone from within the industry that Indus do have a Hybrid crossover inline as CBU and back then there was no news about Corolla Cross. Now we have a model and maybe that person was referring to an upcoming cuv which is now the Corolla cross.
If we see the baseline price of Corolla Cross Hybrid , it is around 1 Million Bhat= approx $32000 USD. Any idea what would be the approx roughly cost to import a base Hybrid as per current duties?
