As you know the prevailing view has been that going from the era of engines alone to hybrids that add motors 100% electric drive will become the norm for automotive powertrains in the near future. Internal combustion engines were thought to be destined for the future but it appears this will no longer be the case. Battery prices have not fallen much and there are many geopolitical risks. This has led to growing attention being paid to hybrids where the engine and motor work together. ICEs still play an important role as a vehicle's powertrain so let's analyze the new possibilities and new technologies from various angles.

I ordered this for my partner as a Christmas present. The seller sent me a very cute message with a picture of the package before they shipped it. I accepted that it was going to get here in January like eBay and USPS said, but the package actually got here BEFORE Christmas, four days early! It also came with a very beautiful handwritten note and a sticker. You've absolutely made our Christmas!
Fantastic seller. Item arrived well packaged and as described. Communication was great the whole time, received images of the item as it was packaged, dispatch was quick, with tracking provided, and only took 9 days to arrive which I thought was really good from Japan to the UK. Handwritten note and complimentary Pokémon card were a nice touch. Highly recommended.

Fits the OO9 body , runs up a gradient with no problems. ONE OF THE BEST EBAY SELLERS I HAVE EVER USED. Will use again with no worries. 10 stars not 5
