hey ashish1354, I think the answer should be D. we need to keep in mind all the premises in the argument and then logically come to a conclusion. the assumption here is that the tax incentives will lead to a lot of hybrid engines being used. If tis happend, we can expect that both the valves and the hybrid engines' use will lead to greater power as well as higher fuel efficieny..


whats the answer?

edit - i would also like to add that B is just a paraphrase of one of the premises. Its not the conclusion that we can derive at (otherwise the last 2 lines are not needed at all!!)

Hi,

If B is the wrong answer then the answer has to be D.
I was initially confused between B and D. Then went for B because somehow thought that D was introducing a new idea from the given premises.

Let us know the OA
