Hybrid Vehicles Save You Gas Money
Two or more power sources, such as gasoline and electric batteries,
are used to extend gas mileage and reduce emissions. The desired
net effects are to lessen the impact that our cars and trucks have
on the environment, reduce dependence on foreign oil, and save money
for the owner of the vehicle.
Today's hybrids are primarily gas and electric, but future models
may utilize hydrogen or pure ethanol.
Generally, today's models run on electric power during stop-and-go
city driving, and electric power out on the highway. The batteries
are recharged during highway driving and during braking. The cost
of a hibred vehicle is generally only slightly more than the same
model offered as a non-hybrid.
