Hybrid Vehicles

Hybrid models are often the first introduction to drivers of alternative fuel vehicles. This type of model has an engine along with an electric motor. The design of the vehicle conserves fuel to help you go further on less.

Part of the hybrid design is regenerative braking. Energy that gets released when you brake is stored into the battery until it’s needed at acceleration. The result is more power without using more fuel.

Hybrid vehicles are growing in number. They appeal to buyers because they are more affordable than electric models. They aren’t limited on how far they can go because the gasoline motor continues to go with improved efficiency. While the hybrid helps reduce CO2 emissions, it doesn’t eliminate it completely.

Electric Vehicles

Electric vehicles travel solely on electric power with no gasoline engine at all. You don’t have any of the components seen with a traditional engine, such as spark plugs, oil filter, and fuel tank.

The result of the design for electric models is that it costs less to maintain them. No oil changes and no stopping at gas stations. The cost of ownership is less than with traditional vehicles. You can find charging stations pretty much anywhere you want to go.

The Plug-In Hybrid

This type of vehicle has both the benefits of the hybrid and the electric model. It is powered by a gasoline engine and an electric motor. You can choose to drive solely on gasoline or electric or use both at the same time. This type of vehicle allows you to keep traveling with no range limits since you can switch to gasoline anytime.
