I'm in the market for a new car, which means I've been spending a lot of time researching possible choices in my budget range. I'm not really sure what kind of vehicle I want yet, but I'm leaning towards hybrid electric cars because of all the extra benefits they provide owners. There used to be a time when the Toyota Prius was the only one on the road, but now there are a bunch of hybrids to choose from. As a result, I'll have to compare and contrast features, check for dealer rebates and discounts, and read consumer and professional reviews about each make and model prior to purchasing. Obviously, this will take a long while. In the meantime, I want to go over some of the advantages of hybrid electric cars to further convince myself that this is what I should buy.
The first thing that comes to mind when talking about hybrids is fuel economy. These vehicles use a combination of a typical gasoline engine and a motor charged by on-board batteries. The battery-powered motor is engaged when driving at slower speeds, such as the stop-and-go movements associated with navigating through heavy traffic. When traveling at higher speeds, the gasoline engine takes over. In this way, hybrid electric cars yield amazing gas and mileage savings for owners. In fact, most people report having to refuel their vehicles after 400 or 600 miles, which is absolutely incredible these days.
As I research these cars it is easy to see that we are moving toward a future with more efficient cars the cause much air and noise pollution. The less gas they burn the less they will damage the air quality we all live with. It will also lower our dependence on foreign energy supplies that are expensive and create a huge transfer of our wealth to other countries. It looks to me like these new transportation technologies have far reaching benefits to everyone. Less pollution, less noise, less money, less dependence on foreign resources. In the US, I'm sure that our largest import is foreign energy sources. If we could decrease those imports by using less gas, it would have a tremendous financial impact on our economy. The same holds true for all oil importing countries.
The government is really promoting these gas saving cars. They usually qualify for federal and state tax credits that make the purchase of a new car much more practical. A Mercury Milan or a Ford Fusion result in $3,400 worth of tax credits and a Mazda Tribute or Ford Escape qualify for about $3,000. Check the Internet or better yet with a new car dealer to see what the current tax credits are. They might not even be available by the time you read this.
OK, I have just about convinced myself. I have some concerns because this is very new automotive technology and the prices are a little high. A lot of that is easy to over come because of the tax incentives and great long term warranties most of these cars have. Also, I can expect to save a lot money I normally spend for gas. I also expect the maintenance costs to be lower than they are for a conventional car. Now I just have to choose which hybrid electric car I want.
