But lots of people just don't have the chance to use other means of transport to work. Lots of them even need their car while they are at work. Renting or buying a hybrid car can cut the fuel money in half. Just think about it, you can effectively go more than 60 miles per gallon with hybrid cars. It is not all in the gas consumption. The best and the most modern normal cars can sometimes use even less fuel than hybrids (the really small ones that is) but even they don't even come close to hybrids when it comes to gas emissions.
Hybrid cars have a lot less pollutants than conventional automobiles. This means that not only will you decrease fuel consumption, but you will also decrease the level of pollution that is poisoning the environment and us humans. With hybrid cars, everyone can benefit.
So how do hybrid cars drive, how are they different?
First of all there are the costs. Hybrids are cost more money than normal cars. But with the money saved by fuel and even with some tax incentives imposed by the government you can, during the hybrid car lifetime, save enough money to make hybrid cars cheaper as conventional ones. And even if you just break even or even if your hybrid car ends up costing more - you are making something for the environment and making a world a better place.
The technology behind the hybrid car is quite simple. Hybrid cars combine electricity, which is the cleanest energy source available, and internal combustion fuel engine to run the car.
Hybrid cars use both electricity and gasoline energy. First of all - when you start the car and the car is in idle mode or not running, the gasoline engine shuts off by itself. At this time the car is solely running on electricity. This is also the reason why hybrid cars are so quiet. And this will also explain why hybrid has decreased fuel consumption. Once you step on the accelerator, the internal combustion engine will automatically start up again.
There are also hybrid cars that can travel solely on electric mode. This is great if you are only using the car for local driving. You don???t even need to pour gasoline in the car. The driving range can be however limited, so it is not very suitable for long distance driving.
You can have a back up internal combustion engine that will be only started when needed - in case the battery is discharged.
A good thing about modern hybrid cars is they don???t need to be plugged in like the electric car. They use kinetic energy to refill the battery.
This is a simple explanation how a hybrid car runs. Hybrid basically means the car uses at least two different power sources. If you need more detail data on how cleaner or cost effective a hybrid car is and if it pays to rent one read on.
