The benefits of hybrid cars also include the fact that they help decrease the levels of carbon and sulfur emissions, since there is less fuel burned because of the car’s electric component. Hybrid vehicles use electricity that comes from the energy created by the car, which means that it uses less fuel. There are hybrid cars that can also use sources of renewable fuel, such as ethanol and biodiesel. These fuels combine traditional diesel or gasoline with biodiesel or ethanol, which are more environmentally friendly, and the result is a hybrid fuel. Hybrid cars emit half the amount of greenhouse pollution and up to 97 percent less toxic emissions than regular cars.
Hybrids run on combustion engines, which are internal, and they have batteries and an electric motor too. When the car slows down or comes to a stop, the energy created by the wheels is used for electricity generation. That electricity then gets stored in the batteries for future use. When the car requires more power, the stored energy provides it from the battery.
There are more benefits of hybrid cars than just environmental ones. For example, hybrid buyers get a federal tax deduction and get purchase incentives. Commutes could actually be faster with hybrid vehicles, because you could take advantage of HOV lanes in certain states. Hybrids weigh a lot less than regular vehicles, because the materials used in their manufacturing very lightweight due to their smaller engines. In addition, there is no need to change driving habits, because there is no difference in driving a hybrid than a regular vehicle.
Hybrid vehicles also have advantages over fully electric cars. For example, they do not have to be recharged, because hybrids can do that on their own. Another advantage of hybrids over electric cars is their versatility. Since traditional fuel or biofuel is used in hybrids along with electric power, they do not need special resources, which makes them more efficient. Of course, hybrid vehicles are not perfect, but they are still much better than traditional vehicles that use gasoline or diesel only and incessantly pollute the environment.

Pretty astute post. Never thought that it was this straightforward after all. I have spent a a lot of my time searching for someone to explain this topic clearly and you’re the only one that ever did that. Great post! I can’t wait to stop back and read more!
October 21st, 2010 at 5:09 pmI have read reports where it has been predicted that it would take no more than 30 years for hybrid and electric vehicles to capture 75% of the US market. On the other hand, there are people like the head of General motors who have been quaoted as saying that they will never make up more than 10% of the market in the US.
October 13th, 2010 at 4:05 pmWhilst hybrids reduce the amount of carbon emmited by around 50%, the overall amount of smog causing pollutants is reduced by upto 90%. This is a enormously successful result, and it makes me wish all the cars today in my city changed to hybrid over night!
October 13th, 2010 at 4:01 pmMany hybrids (again, but not all) also have systems in which the a/c, power steering, other such pumps are activited automatically and only when needed, reducing wear and tear compared to normal cars, which have belts which drive them continuously.
October 13th, 2010 at 3:59 pmno..the engine cutting off thing is only found on certain models of hybrids. Its a great idea though.
October 13th, 2010 at 3:56 pmI like the way my hybrid shuts down its engine during traffic stops or while coasting down a hill. So much gas is wasted by cars just stuck in traffic jams. Im not sure if this feature is found in all hybrids though.
October 13th, 2010 at 3:55 pmThanks for the great story. I will return often to read more.

August 19th, 2010 at 12:51 amI’m so amaze with hybrid cars.The features makes me realize many things like instead of contributing pollution from everyday driving,why not drive but not affecting the environment.
May 31st, 2010 at 1:36 amit is very expensive we cant affort it ias easy to operate but very defficult in maintanance……..
March 12th, 2010 at 1:12 amI just love my Hybrid. I get over 500 miles per tank on the highway.
November 3rd, 2009 at 11:34 amIt's definitely a nice concept hybrid is must- see car, because of its features, but I hope that this car would be affordable as it hits the market soon.
May 7th, 2009 at 1:57 amhybrid car is car with environment-friendly technology. bring great effect for the nature, if everyone uses it, replace the conventional car.
April 26th, 2009 at 11:13 pmthanks alot, this article is very useful for me :))
April 18th, 2009 at 7:08 amA good articles. Now this hybrid term we often hear. What is it hybrid? and how the prospects in the future?
April 5th, 2009 at 2:00 pmConsider this: the batteries in hybrids last about 20,000 miles and then they need to be replaced. They cost about $5,000 per battery. So conceivably you could be replacing the battery once a year. Think about what your total investment will be before buying, folks.
February 19th, 2009 at 12:49 amWell no one can beat you in writing posts. I really love your posts every time.
February 16th, 2009 at 3:36 pmHybrid cars are honestly one the greatest inventions in the world. Not only do these cars help the environment, but think about if everyone in the world replaced their gas using car with a hybrid? It’d rock!
February 10th, 2009 at 12:12 pmI definitely think that hybrid cars are not only the future of cars as we know it, but I really think that they are a fantastic invention!
February 10th, 2009 at 12:10 pmWhile I am a true believer that hybrid cars will help lessen our need to fossil fuel we will never be completely able to not use it in some form or another.
February 8th, 2009 at 9:22 amIt is exactly all about how flashy person can look
February 6th, 2009 at 11:05 pmBut if the benefits of a hybrid are the key factor then why does it need to be exclusive? Isn’t it about saving the enviroment and not about how flashy a person can look?
February 6th, 2009 at 9:00 pmI believe that there is someone out there like Henry Ford who can make a Model T Hybrid
February 6th, 2009 at 2:27 pmHybrid car is an exclusive thing If you want to be different and owe one you’ll have to pay for this too.
February 6th, 2009 at 2:11 pmI personally would love to own a hybrid not only for the enviromental effects but also to save on money coming out of my own pocket. The problem is that the hybrids are not as affordable to the average customer as they need to be, especially not in this market.
February 6th, 2009 at 8:45 amHybrid or no hybrid, who cares… in my opinion it is about marketing. if they want to sell overpriced hybrids, they can say anything they want but those toys still consume gas…
February 4th, 2009 at 8:31 pmI own a hybrid and I wouldn’t trade it for the world. I have gotten better gas mileage from it and it really saved me a lot of money when gas prices were over $4 a gallon. They really are well worth the money.
