Hybrid And Electrical Cars

The Best Electric Hybrid Car
By: Paul Roger

Government legislation is making it a priority for many countries to become more environmentally aware with regard motoring. Low carbon, cleaner vehicles are now being manufactured to meet these targets. Not only is there the issue of climate change to consider, but the ongoing unrest in the oil rich countries. Also consider the increasing gas petroleum charges.

We are still a while off to having a proper workable alternative to petrol/gas…but many car companies, notably Honda, Toyota and BMW have made great advances in their research and development of hybrid vehicles.

Toyota is aiming to have all it’s cars as hybrid vehicles by the year 2020. Currently it has the popular Prius model which was the worlds first of it’s kind when it was released in Japan. The Toyota Prius reduces emissions by around 70%.


Since then we have seen the Honda Insight and the Honda Civic Hybrid, Honda Insight and the Honda Civic Hybrid. The 2007 Honda Civic Hybrid has received great reviews from satisfied customers. This is the way forward for sure.

There can be no argument hybrid vehicles offer greater fuel efficiency than gas powered alternatives. The less fuel being used the bigger the reduction of pollution in the environment.

For many people living in large cities for example, the more hybrid vehicles seen on the road the less harmful emissions in the atmosphere. Less pollution means better air quality for everyone.

In years to come Hybrid cars will play a major part in combating many of the problems currently faced by gas powered vehicles…..Namely oil dependence and pollution. One can only hope that these future cars will become better and faster…providing value to the consumer, the economy and the environment. Many experts believe this mode of transport is here to stay.

In Europe gas prices are a lot higher than in the US and running a car using water as fuel represents an enormous saving. NASA has the space shuttle, which uses hydrogen fuel cells to run electrical systems. Water is the main emission here.
It is also possible to convert a gas/petrol car to run on tap water
