Hybrid demand at ANSA Motors currently stands at approximately 35% of new car purchases in Trinidad and Tobago, a trend the company is seeking to capitalise on with the launch of the new Mitsubishi Outlander Sport Hybrid Electric Vehicle.

Speaking at the launch on Friday, General Manager of New Vehicle Sales, Mark Pontifex, said consumer demand is increasingly shifting towards hybrid technology because of the benefits it offers drivers.

“Even as EV adoption, as we call it, grows locally, hybrid demand currently stands at approximately 35% of new car purchases in Trinidad and Tobago. And consumers are looking for value, that’s why they’re buying into hybrid. It offers fantastic fuel efficiency and benefits of the electrified technology, while retaining the convenience and familiarity drivers value. There’s no need to plug in or plan around charging.”
