Hybrid Cars and Consumers

March 17th, 2009

Now that gas is below $2/gal (nationwide average = $1.91/gal) again,  both Honda and Toyota can’t seem to sell these cars.   It has become such a problem that now both manufacturers are offering rebates on these cars.

On another note, I was becoming accustomed to hearing about how hybrid cars will save the environment but I’m really failing to understand.    Today, these cars principally use batteries that are recharged using electromagnets.   The last time I looked, batteries are a gigantic source of pollution with many known negative effects on the environment.
