the fueled cars emissions and most people agree with that new alternatives must be used. Electric cars and Hybrid cars are the best-known alternatives‚ but the question is: which one is the best and more efficient. This report will talk about Electric and Hybrid cars in history‚ composition‚ comparison‚ and the future of cars‚ showing that the electric cars will be the future cars. 1- History: The Electric car wasn’t invented by a specific inventor; however‚ it was a result of a series of discoveries

powered vehicles. One of the most popular option right now is a hybrid vehicle. The question that comes to mind is‚ are hybrid vehicles worth it? With record high gas prices due to the price of oil‚ most car owners out there have major concerns over their gas usage. Over the past ten years‚ the cost of gasoline has grown 250%! The price of oil has doubled since January of this year. The high prices of oil and gas is the driving factor for most of the people to trade their gas powered vehicles for hybrid

high-tech hybrids — cars that combine the power of a gas engine with an electric motor to reduce fuel consumption and emissions — may seem like something only an environmentalist or an engineer could get revved up about. The fact is‚ however‚ that a new generation of hybrid cars and trucks due to go on sale within the next 12 months offer a number of very practical advantages for families‚ from saving money to helping save the planet. Many experts are predicting 2004 will be the year that hybrids turn
