Top Ten Reasons to Choose a Hybrid Vehicle: Car or SUV
Thursday, October 23, 2008 16:26With the rising costs of gas there is an abundance of reasons that we are choosing to go green – for one, it releases the strain on your wallet when you see the gas gauge dwindle towards the empty line. Now with the option of a hybrid vehicle customers aren’t forced to look upon that empty gas tank with dread – in fact, with a hybrid vehicle you will see this happen a lot less often!
1. The best reason to buy a hybrid vehicle is to save money! No matter how much some of us may deny it, we all like to save money wherever we can. Now we can save money at the pumps by increasing fuel economy and filling up less with a hybrid vehicle.
2. Not only can we save money but we can also save the environment. Everyone wants to decrease their emissions while protecting the planet for the future generations. Many hybrid vehicle owners are thinking about their children’s future generations and the state of the earth that they are going to be faced with in fifty years. Go green for the younger generations!
3. Hybrid vehicles may cost more to begin with, but upkeep is not as expensive as it once was. Mechanics are becoming more familiar with the different types of hybrid cars and SUVs as they grow in popularity.
4. Hybrid vehicles are all the rage! Celebrities and Stylish people are going green – you are in luck, never before has it been so trendy to go green!
5. Many of our favorite vehicles are available in Hybrid format now with increased gas mileage and specialized engines. This is one reason that a Hybrid can be for everyone! It is available in styles that range from the Toyota Prius, to the traditional Honda Civic, or Ford Escape – there literally is a hybrid for every vehicle owner.
6. Now, you don’t have to worry about losing power within the vehicle. Many of the hybrid vehicles that are being manufactured as just as powerful as those gas guzzling SUVs that we have all come to know and love.
7. Hybrids are the latest technology and are not going to become obsolete the way that some older vehicle models (like electric) did. Soon they are also going to stop making vehicle parts for those gas-powered vehicles that are bad for our health, our wallets, and the environment.
8. Some day soon Hybrid may be the only way to go! Think about the legislations occurring on a daily basis, warranting companies to reduce their CO2 emissions — it is only a matter of time before this legislation is introduced to vehicle owners. Why not get ahead of the game and start reducing today?
9. Hybrids are forming the path to future technologies. Once consumers have decided to care about the environment, their finances and contributing to the transition – auto companies will jump on this trend, too!
10. Doesn’t everyone want to contribute to pressing world issues? When consumers purchase hybrid vehicles, they are assisting the local communities and the nation as a whole to stop relying on foreign oil production. The truth is that the more we learn to become an independent nation, while learning to rely on other methods of energy rather than oil, the better off the relationships between developed countries can be.
With all of these reasons to go green, how can you resist? Not only will you be saving the crunch on your wallet, but also the crunch on the earth – Are you ready to start making a difference and consider trading in that gas guzzling SUV for a hybrid?

i don’t know why car manufacturers aren’t interested in releasing these hybrid cars in the markets also hydrogen cars, they may have connections between fuel companies, because releasing this kinds of cars will lead to oil companies downfall.

Hybrid cars are finally becoming mainstream. I believe the 2010 Ford Focus is making a huge splash in the hybrid market because it boasts a high MPG, as well as enough power for the average driver. It doesn’t look half bad either.

Hybrids are great aren’t they? NO! They are proably alot worse for the enviroment. You are not considering the most pollutant aspect of a car, the making of it. Building of the technologies involved in hybrids causes alot more pollutants then a standard car because of their electric motors and particulary their batteries. They are also heavier. Much greater efficenticy can be achived with small diesel cars. Hybrids are a gimic

Great article! Those top ten reasons really convinced me to consider a hybrid car over a regular car.

Even though celebrities are gobbling these hybrid down, what’s keeping people like me from buying the most fuel efficient ones is the way they look. The Honda civic hybrid looks like a normal civic and not funky, which must be why it probably doesn’t sell too well. I think Nissan is planing to cancle its hybrid Altima because of poor sales. These are the hybrids I would buy, but the automakers don’t seem to be too interested in them.

I think in the very near future all cars will be either hybrid or electric. I am just waiting for the day when commercial vehicle and trucks take on hybrid power!

As far as maintenance is concerned, most hybrid components need no regular maintenance. Of course, you’ll have to change the oil in the gas engine every 5,000 to 10,000 miles, just as you would in a conventional car.

I agree with Thomas that the cars of the future will be mostly hybrid, electric, as well as solar powered cars. But I still would want to see vintage and classic cars.

I personally think that hybrid cars are just a political weapon at the moment because big oil companies are fighting against pure electrical cars. With electric cars comes the whole new problem; how the governments are going to benefit from that and how they will make money on electricity which at the moment is available to anyone and a few years down the line every Jo/Jack/Jim will be able to put a small wind turbine on top of their house/shed, charge their cars and drive for free.

its not just clean, it looks bad ass too. once it becomes inexpensive, i’ll make sure i’ll drive one. One thing though, hybrid cars of today won’t be able to comprehend too much speed, maybe in a few years it will be able to compete to fuel car models.

And, plug-in hybrids will have even more advantages when they start rolling off the production lines in the near future. Being able to travel the first 30 to 50 miles on all electric power alone is going to save millions of gallons of gasoline.

I agree with some of the people here. Hybrid cars or SUVs are better choice and in the right timing. I believe this will be eventually mass produced as more and more people are becoming more conscious of their environment

I agree with hydrogen. It seems no one wants to subsidize the infrastructure to get this done and a real renewable fuel.

I agree, there are a huge number of great reasons to go green! Unfortunately the problem for many people is simply the price – and that won’t come down substantially for several years. The cost of servicing has come down, but people just don’t have the cash to buy a ‘new’ car most of the time. When secondhand hybrids start appearing, then the concept will really take off.
