Default Take a Ride to the Future In A Hybrid Car


Utilizing the latest in advanced technology, hybrid cars might just
provide a glimpse into the future of automobiles. Hybrid cars sport
sleek and futuristic looks, but these cars aren't just for show. These
scientific marvels make use of both electric and gas power to make for
a cleaner, more cost efficient, and environmentally friendlier car.
As the world's supply of oil inevitably runs out and the prices of
gasoline continue to skyrocket to staggering new heights, more and
more people have begun to look for an alternative way to power their
cars, as well as to save some money. Thankfully, the rise of hybrid
cars are providing a much needed solution to these problems and more.
The popularity of hybrid cars continue to grow as more people begin to
realize the many advantages that hybrid cars hold over conventional
ones.
So, what is a hybrid car and how does it work?
As the name suggests, hybrid cars utilizes a combination of different
technologies. Hybrid cars use an electric propulsion system together
with of a gas propulsion system to great effect....

I dented my new Honda. backed into a short post at 2 mph. $3000 in
damages. "Bumper" and tail light assembly. $655 in parts, the rest in
labor. But i digress . . .

I got a Toyota Pruis for a loan car. I hadn't considered a hybrid when
I bought my car. I would not consider anything else now.

What a wonderful car.

Wikipedia has a great article, well worth the read:

We've had a Lexus 400H for two years now.

Spectacular technology, but most of the benefit from a fuel economy
standpoint is realized around town. (Where my wide does most of her
driving, so that's OK). The unappreciated upside; when you hit the
throttle hard the thing runs like a raped ape. Much, much, better
acceleration than the standard V6 (which we test drove in the
Highlander package).

Real life economy is probably about 8 mpg better than straight gas in
town and 4-5 better than straight gas on the highway. We usually
achieve about 24 mpg real life average, with most of that in stop and
start city traffic. Not bad for a medium size, comfortable vehicle.

Uh, Chuck...your "wide"?

Let's hope she doesn't read the NG...;-)
