When I rejected the VW Touareg diesel I was given this BMW 530e iPerformance. Since Dieselgate happened I heard a lot of people say that instead of a diesel you should buy a hybrid. I thought this is a good opportunity to check if a hybrid is really an alternative to a diesel. While the result is not a surprise the actual numbers are shocking. This is my attempt of making a YouTube video about what happened.
