Hybrid Cars

[SugarD]

Hybrid cars use a mix of electricity and gas, hence their name "hybrid". Electric vehicles only use electricity.

Well we all know that hybrid's are useless at using electricity efficiently. If anything they tend to use more fuel than normal cars :razz:

True. People drive hybrids because they like to been seen as "green". Not because they want to save fuel and the earth. I mean what good would a hybrid SUV with a 6 litre engine do?

Take the Escalade for an example.

Normal Escalade MPG- 13/18
Hybrid Escalade MPG- 20/23

It's not much of an improvement IMO. More expensive+more parts to repair. Why would anybody buy a Hybrid?
