HYBRID CAR: TOMORROW'S STAR

The increasing popularity of Hybrid cars is a clear indication of increasing fuel prices and increasing air pollution levels. People are looking for safe fuel alternatives for running the cars. Hybrid cars are the perfect answer of both the problems. Let us understand what hybrid cars are and how efficient they are for solving the fuel crisis.

**What are Hybrid Cars

In common parlance, the term hybrid means a mixture of two or more things. As the name suggests, Hybrid cars run on a combination of different fuels. The energy for hybrid cars comes from a combination of a gasoline engine backed by an electric motor for speed. Batteries in turn power the electric motor. These batteries are recharged automatically by utilizing the energy that is lost during braking and slowing down of the vehicle. In hybrid cars, the electric motor acts as an electric generator by running backwards, when the car slows down.

The engines in hybrid vehicle are smaller than those in a gasoline-powered car. Thus, they consume less oil and are energy efficient. The extra power needed to accelerate the car, comes from the electric motor and batteries. The engine of a hybrid car runs at higher speeds without using excessive fuel. In some hybrid cars, the engine shuts off when the car stops at a traffic signal, and starts on its own when the car is put in gear.

**Hybrid Cars-Meeting THE Consumers' Needs

Today, the consumer is well aware of the environmental harm being done by oil-engines. The ever-increasing price of oil can make you feel the pinch every time you go to refuel your car. The Hybrid cars offer a combination of power and energy. The constraint with hybrid cars however, was that there were not much choices available. Now, however, the increasing popularity of the hybrid cars have resulted in the availability of several different models of hybrid cars. Now many leading car manufacturers such as Honda, Ford and Toyota have come up with their version of hybrid cars.

**Hybrid Car Advantages Outweigh Disadvantages

The hybrid cars save fuel, are environment friendly and help to conserve our natural resources. Now, the US government is also offering Tax relief to buyers of hybrid cars. There is a wide choice of hybrid cars available to fit everybody's style and need. The few limitations that use to exist for the buyers are fast fading. The high cost, low speed, limited choice, non-availability are all things of yesteryears. Now you can have a trendy looking hybrid car that is soft on your pocket not only when you purchase it but also when you run it. Small size and the use of lightweight materials to save fuel are the characteristic features of hybrid cars. The new models of hybrid cars also make a style statement.

It does make sound sense to let our environment breathe easy. However, it would be possible only when more and more people switch over to Hybrid Cars.
