Ivvie, it's very possible.

I'm sure they've both been independently tested.

ivvie, its indeed very possible smiley
Re: ^ by inspiredm(m): 7:29am On Jul 11, 2008
Its quite possible

seeing that the Yukon is Hybrid,

Hybrid Engine operates between Electrical & Mechanical Engine

When you get to traffic it switches from using fuel to electrical energy being stored hence it significantly reduces fuel consumption

thats why the advert indicates CITY FUEL ECONOMY. traffic jams usually occurs in the city.

The Toyota Camry V6 is not a HYBRID spec hence it depends solely on fuel

The best to use in Lagos traffic are the Hybrid Engine, Honda Accords have Hybrid Versions from 2003 - date

Other brands like Lexus, Mazda etc too have hybrid specs.

I believe before they staked that claim, they would have verified it, or Toyota could sue them technically.

You hit the nail on the head! That's exactly the deal - read the fine print!

What gets me rolling my eyes is how the SUV brigade can expect good economy but putting a high output V8 petrol engine in a vehicle as big and heavy as the those trucks and expect a decent fuel economy.

I have nothing against SUVs per se but I have an issue with not putting the right engine in them.
