Eco Friendly Hybrid Cars

While having a car is a necessity, it converts into luxury as the fuel consumption is sky rocketing and accelerating. Due to this many people are now getting frustrated with their usual gasguzzling conventional car and are actively looking for alternative modes of travel. People are turning to public transportation - bus, trains - braving even the worst of weather simply to save on the everincreasing fuel costs. However there are some who simply need their car due to job nature or family obligations.

These days more and more people are turning to hybrid cars because of their promise of lesser fuel consumption and environmental friendliness.
Hybrid cars produce fewer pollutants than conventional cars. This means that not only will you cut fuel consumption by more than half, you will also decrease the level of pollution that is poisoning the environment and people. With hybrid cars, everyone can benefit from it.

The concept of the hybrid car is quite simple. Hybrid cars combine electricity, which is the cleanest energy source available, and internal combustion gasoline engine to run the car.

In simple words, hybrid cars utilize both electricity and gasoline energy to power the car. Firstly when your hybrid car is started and in idle mode or not running, the gasoline engine is automatically shut off. You car is then purely running on electricity. That explains the reason behind why hybrid cars are very quiet. This is also the reason why it can effectively conserve fuel consumption. Once you step on the accelerator, the internal combustion engine will automatically start up again.

There are also hybrid cars that can run purely on electric mode. This is very useful if you are only using the car for local travels. You virtually don’t even need to put gasoline in the car.

Most hybrid cars developed today no longer need to be plugged in like the electric car. The used kinetic energy when you are braking will be the one to recharge the battery.

This is how simple a hybrid car works.

In short hybrid cars promises to provide efficiency, economy, convenience and sustainability.
