Our first family car. Glad to be the first owner of Suzuki XL7 Hybrid here in Nueva Ecija. 1month na siya ngayon & wala akong masabi. Sulit na sulit. Napakapogi & tipid sa gas. Dami nagagandahan, tinginin talaga sa kalsada tapos ang luwag & malakas humatak. Hindi mo ramdam na underpowered. Inabangan talaga namin paglabas netong hybrid. Sulit na sulit 💪

To clarify things: "The Department of Energy classifies a "Hybrid Electric Vehicle" as being powered by both an internal combustion engine (ICE) and a rechargeable energy source, a.k.a. a battery and an electric motor, upon which both powerplants SHOULD propel the vehicle independently." Meaning it should be able to drive the vehicle using electric power alone in full EV mode, no matter the range the battery can provide. This should eliminate the "loopholes" that some manufacturers try to cheat on, like the Okavango, the Ertiga and this XL7 among others, and prevent cheeky motorists slapping "Hybrid" badges on their ICE cars to confuse authorities. In contrast, take the new Xpander HEV as an example since both are competing in the MPV category. Whereas the ISG in the Suzuki's only deliver 1.77 kW (about 2.3 hp) and only "assists" the gas engine, the Xpander HEV's hybrid system has a full-fledged electric motor which, surprisingly delivers more horsepower than its 1.6 L gas engine: 85 kW (114 hp) and 255 Nm (188 lb-ft) to be exact versus 70kW (94 hp) and 134 Nm (98.8 lb-ft) respectively, making it a full hybrid vehicle. That's more than enough to not only qualify it under DOE's requirements, but depending on the level of charge, it can drive itself on full EV mode unlike the former vehicles mentioned. So, before you decide to buy a hybrid and benefit on the "Number Coding Exemption", make sure the vehicle is eligible first and consult DOE's list of qualified vehicles.

My sentiment exactly. People are actually getting away with fake hybrid badges and fake hybrid plates. I wonder if MMDA & LTO people on the field know better than to fall for this. To me it looks like ther the MMDA personnel aren’t informed enough to sanction fines on these motorists, or these cheeky motorists know someone who can pull the strings to let them get away with it.

@@lostwanderingdrifter Honestly, I suspect this scenario to be happening already. It's too easy as well to "fake-badge" a specific car to a hybrid. Toyota Corollas have both ICE and Hybrid models, so to are Hondas. But this is the Philippines, unfortunately. If it's too easy to bribe an enforcer for speeding, what more this? I agree, the LTO and MMDA assigned on the field should know better, but they also should be knowledgeable with cars to begin with aside from being informed of this law's details, solely relying on lists can confuse them. That should help them identify which car is which, and hopefully this law doesn't get abused.

If you want maximum fuel efficiency, get the Ertiga Hybrid. If you want maximum savings, get the Ertiga Hybrid GL (not the GLX or XL7). You will lose some of the features but it more than makes up for it in terms of fuel efficiency and monthly savings on your payment. And just having a simple, reliable car. If you want a bit more with all the bells and whistles, then get the Ertiga GLX or XL7. Can't go wrong with any of these. Mind you, space inside is EXACTLY the same on these three. Just a matter of preference sa looks na lang.

It won't be exempted. DOE clarifies its requirements for a "hybrid vehicle", in that the electric motor should be able to propel the vehicle by itself without any assistance from the gas engine. This clearly doesn't do that as mentioned as well by Caco.

People have forgotten that the main purpose of a hybrid or mild hybrid system is to maximize the fuel efficiency of a vehicle. Not to be exempt from number coding. Not everyone lives in Metro Manila to enjoy the coding exemption for hybrid vehicles

@lolpartyparrot

That is the main purpose of making these ICE vehicles into a hybrid, especially in the most contested MPV segment: very fuel efficient and affordable vehicles sell like hotcakes. Whether the manufacturer excels or fails in that aspect, you be the judge. But the fact that a lot of car buyers are beginning to get comfortable buying HEVs right now compared to last few years is directly because of this benefit by the new EVIDA Law, because majority of buyers are STILL in the Metro Manila area, wanting to save every ounce of fuel that's otherwise wasted on gridlock traffic, so disregarding that matter here just doesn't work. The comment section alone is evident of that. If you're in a province with the least amount of traffic (if that fever dream even exists), then good for you. Otherwise, you better be lucky to book a Grab because you can't use your car under coding.
