I wonder when it will be available in the USA and at what price. Price conversion of the advertised Rs 190,982 is around $2875, but we all know there is an import fee of some sort because the retail price here of a new PCX is $3499 OR higher. Heck, after everything was added our OTD cost was close to $4000.

Cool. Since the electric pcx is a 50cc equivalent and isn’t highway legal here, i am looking forward to the hybrid version eventually coming to the states. I wonder what the added range will be? It’s not a plug in hybrid tho right? Still, interesting.

Looks really smart! Lots of neat touches on it, hope the price is realistic though!

Does the digital dash come on the 2019 PCX released in the US?

No it isn't by the sounds of it. I was hoping for different. You are right, though, it's still interesting.

Would imagine it's like my Honda CRZ hybrid where you can't use the motor without the engine on like you can in a prius

There is little data to understand the benefits of hybrid technology. Power growth is minimal, torque is almost the same, acceleration dynamics is unknown. Fuel efficiency is not voiced.

Somewhere I read that it cuts into your storage area under the seat… Not enuf benefit for me to sacrifice that ....I really like how much crap you can put underneath the seat.

Increased fuel efficiency of hybrid vehicles is well documented, typically around 40% less fuel used.

Yes, I went on a hybrid Honda civic, but the article about the economy is not written.
