what car is cheper on gas?

Answer 1

toyota prius
it is a hybrid

Answer 2

You've got two choices.

(1) A hybrid -- problem here is that the technology is still new, and we don't how it'll play out in terms of longterm reliability and expense (how often do you need new batteries?).

(2) A diesel. We just got a Volkswagen TDI which gets mileage as good as lot of hybrids -- about 35 city, 50 or more highway. Plus you'll be able to get biodiesel as it becomes available. This is the choice that made more sense to us. Plus the Jetta is the safest car in its class, AND diesel engines last a heck of a lot longer than gas engines (250,000 miles at least) and require less maintenance. But if you want a TDI, jump on one now; they're not releasing any models in 2007.

Answer 3

People might first think "hybrid" but in reality there are many different types of hybrids. The Toyota system is very low tech and does not give much added fuel economy when placed into perspective with more advanced systems found on the new GM and Ford products. But for some reason, the public has been brainwashed into thinking Toyota means quality and fuel economy when in reality the GM products, in particular, have been getting better gas mileage while Toyota quality has been slipping as well.

Answer 4

You may have seen the Tesla electric sportscar http://www.teslamotors.com

You may have even seen the T-Zero electric sports car http://www.acpropulsion.com/ACP_FAQs.htm

These two cars show that it is now possible to build electric cars that can out-accelerate a Ferrari, and go 250 - 350 miles on a single charge. But both these cars are very expensive.

So who else is working on electric cars?

Would you believe China? They have to work on EVs. There won't be enough oil to support China's future economic growth.

I drive an old electric vehicle. I also have friends with electric vehicles. Some of them have recently been able to buy some amazing, cutting-edge EV batteries from China - example:

These batteries are better, and cheaper than the ones in those $100,000+ sportscars above. If you look at the chart, you'll see they are as cheap as lead-acid batteries, and they hold up for 1100 charges, twice as many charges as the other LI-Ion batteries on the chart.

Now, look at this car:

It's a Chinese electric car, which will be imported into the USA next year. The driving range is almost as good as those sports cars above. But it only costs $28500.
