It’s a mock up done by someone with too much time on their hands. There is no hybrid engine in this body style.

More like the car doesn’t have harmful emissions, so no monooxide poisioning.

I think it’s pretty clever. The guy tries to kill himself in the car using the exhaust with the motor running, but because it’s a hybrid “it uses less gas”, so he was waiting too long to die and gets out and hangs himself instead. Of course the ad isn’t meant for all people – different cultures have different ideas about what’s funny. I was born in America, but my parents red me Struewelpeter, Max und Moritz and stories by the Brothers Grimm. Kids get their thumbs cut off with scissors, a girl goes on fire, a kid drowns in the river, a bunch of kids get dunked in tar, etc – to me those are bedtime stories I enjoyed immensely, the same as all German kids born over there – so a lot of German Americans born here who still have the culture will like that ad.

He can wait in line at the soup kitchen along side the marketing guy that approved the ad.
