Can Hybrid Cars Be Named As The Best Car Technology?

By Danny Green

Innovations come out every second, because the world is changing so fast. The global village helps to come up with more, and more technology, each set on being better than the predecessor is.

The onslaught of technology on our senses has had its positive impact. New car innovations compete with each other to keep prices competitive resulting in better fuel efficiency, and more features for their consumers.

Car technology has reached amazing heights and that too in a variety of different technologies, and not in diesel cars alone. There are hybrids, and small cars. Smart cars and Diesel vehicles. E85 Ethanol and plug-in hybrid cars. Start-stop cars, electric vehicles, and hydrogen powered vehicles. Whoa!

The best cars for fuel efficiency are small cars. There is no prospect of limited choices when it comes to downsizing. Stylist and sporty options are always on sale. From highest to lowest mpg, the small cars include Smart For Two, Mini Cooper, Toyota Yaris, Mini Cooper Clubman, and Honda Fit. Lower emissions, higher efficiency and magnificent performances characterise the newest range of Diesel vehicles. As of present, there Volkswagen Jetta TDI, BMW 335d, Mercedes E320 Bluetec, BMW X5 xDrive 35d, and Jeep Grand Cherokee CRD are on the list.

The cars that run on 85% blend of ethanol are E85 Ethanol cars, which are very rare in availability. As for the available ones, these are inclusive of Dodge Caravan E85, Chevrolet Impala E85, Chrysler Sebring E85, Chevrolet Silverado E85, and Ford F-150 E85. Hundred+ mpg hybrids that can be plugged into the electric grid are known as Plug in Hybrids. This exclusive variety has Fisker Karma, VentureOne, Chevrolet Volt, GM Plug-in Crossover SUV, Ford Escape Plug-in Hybrid. As for stop-start cars, they are hybrids that do not consume gas when they are stopped. In fact, this helps in achieving a better fuel efficiency. The available cars in this category are Chevrolet Malibu Hybrid, Saturn Vue Hybrid, and Saturn Aura Green Line.

On the list of new technologies, electronic vehicles have found a league of their own. Though hugely expensive, the features especially the internal combustion cannot be doubted. Out of these, the ones that are worth considering include BMW City, BYD E6, Ford Focus EV, Mercedes Blue Zero and Renault Fluence. It is a wonder how hydrogen powered cars are emerging out to be real. Models available are still limited. Honda FCX Clarity, Chevrolet Equinox Fuel Cell, BMW Hydrogen 7, and Cadillac Provoq are the ones that are inclusive in the list of available cars.

There is no doubt in hybrid cars being eligible to qualify for the list of best car technology pertaining to several purposes. The main purpose for the launch of the hybrid car campaign was to promote a green future and use cars that are not the cause of pollution. The environment does not suffer harm because of them, and neither do the people.

The prospect of embracing technology and propulsion systems while attempting to enhance fuel efficiency is the principal point of the hybrid car movement. Being most efficient when it comes to fuel, hybrid cars are said to be the latest in technology. First in line is the Toyota Prius that is 50 mpg. In the same regard, follow Honda Civic Hybrid, Honda Insight, Ford Fusion Hybrid, and Mercury Milan Hybrid.
