I thought a Hybrid 370Z would be a good idea, after last week, I think NOT.

Why would this be locked? I have thought the Hybrid Z that Nissan has proposed would be a good idea, until actually driving a Nissan Altima Hybrid for a week. How many people here have actual experienced driving the Altima Hybrid for longer than a test drive. I was expecting better mileage and a smoother electric car. What I drove was a car with a lot of issues compared to the regular Hertz Altima I usually get.

I don't think the 370Z deserves that type of setup. It would not appeal to many who brought the car for performance.

IF nissan pulls together a hybrid replacement for the Z, I'm sure they will work to make sure it's an enjoyable setup, or they will likely not call it a Z car. The Z name is too valuable for them to damage with a bad hybrid.

The Altima hybrid doesn't need to appeal to enthusiasts, so there's no reason to waste the time and money trying to make it do so.
