It might be too expensive for you. But people (executives) for which this car is market does not care about the price. A MB S-klasse or BMW 7-serie can be buyed for the same price-tag (with a lot of options). But those vehicles does not have the marketing appeal of the Hybrid system. You can debate if the hybrid system is a effective way to save feul and emissions, but for the american market it is a hot item that every important people want to be related with. I mean, why else did Hollywood start buyed Prius? It is not the biggest, most luxury, best looking of best driving car ever, but because they wanted to be related with the 'green' idea of the Hybrid technology for there own image . So for executives who wants a car to stand out from the crowds by brand and technology, this is the one to get. Price? Well.. ..it is a company car for them.
