Advantages and Disadvantages Of Electric Hybrid Cars - By: GARKO

vehicles have become a necessity and n important part of the everyday living of man. That is why, if there is one machine or device currently in use to mankind that needs or deserve further modification and improvement, it would definitely be the car.
Because oil prices are constantly rising almost every week due to the volatile and unstable political and civil condition in the Middle East, the principal oil exporting region, gasoline prices have reached a point when ordinary people may find purchasing it almost a luxury.
The speed and mileage of electric vehicles are inferior compared to those by the traditional and conventional gas-powered vehicles. The required time or duration of charging of batteries is also one source of setback for the electric car.
Because of its limitations, the electric car was considered a failure and car makers did not proceed to fully roll out and launch the product to the market.
But the research and effort made to develop electric vehicles were not to be put in absolute futility. The car makers were really determined enough to come up with better vehicles that would address the issues revolving from pollutants and oil consumption.The electric vehicles provided the templates that were used to develop another type of car---the hybrid vehicles.
Hybrids are hot nowadays. Hybrid car uses 2 engines; one uses the traditional fuel, while the other uses the energy from a rechargeable battery. There are also myriad of hybrid vehicles, to choose from. One simplest way is through consumer reports on hybrid vehicles.
The hybrid vehicles are still evoking a greater room for improvement. Because the industry is still in the experimental and initial phase when it comes to hybrid vehicles, expect to see more developments and modifications in the coming years.
At one point, consumer reports compared the 2003 Honda Civic Hybrid car, which consumes 36 miles per gallon and worth $21,000, with the 2003 Honda Civic EX, which consumes 29 miles per gallon and worth $18,500 a unit on the average. Interested to know the results? The tax break excluded, it would take a consumer 21 years in fuel savings to cover the earlier expense for buying hybrid.
Gabriel Shenhar, senior auto test engineer for Consumer Reports, said that if someone is "looking at your pocket, you're not gaining anything there anytime soon," Shenhar asserted that it is wiser, to wait until auto makers improve hybrids' powertrains and bring prices more agreeable with regular models.
The same Consumer Reports compared the 2003 Honda Civic Hybrid car, which consumes 36 miles per gallon and worth $21,000, with the 2003 Honda Civic EX, which consumes 29 miles per gallon and worth $18,500 a unit on the average. Interested to know the results? The tax break excluded, it would take a consumer 21 years in fuel savings to cover the earlier expense for buying hybrid.
If these new hybrids will eventually reach the price level, of other lightweight trucks, and will offer far better fuel savings, the better. If both gas savings and initial investment targets are achieved, says Edmunds.com's automotive expert Ed Hellwig, there's no reason why people will not rush to their dealer and buy one.
So what do you do if you want to improve your MPG?
WATER4GAS is sharing information for a fee which individuals can use in their garage or wherever to put together a small gizmo which infuses hydrogen into the gas/air mixture that their car runs on.
What this does is make smaller particles out of the particles that the engine uses as fuel. So it gets to use a lot more of the fuel.
By doing this you can reasonably expect to improve your MPG by 12%. But many are obtaining 30-50% improvement or even more. Those goblets "musta" been pretty "blankin'" big in some systems before. But with W4G they are made consumable so you can improve your MPG.
It also helps make emissions significantly cleaner.
This package of info has been purchased by over 9000 car owners already and the percentage of happy customers is about 99%! So that's a start!
