So it's an expensive, luxury mini-SUV/tall station wagon that weighs almost two tons and gets mileage similar to a Prius. They still should have reduced the size of the diesel engine to account for the available torque from the electric motor. Admittedly, this is less effective with diesels than with gas.
When the final numbers are out, it will be interesting to compare price, mpg, and weight between the hybrid and non-hybrid versions.
