Top 5 Hybrid Cars That May End Up Saving The World

by GoAceNate

• Of all the possible things that may end up saving the world few would think it would be the rise of hybrid cars in the world. The continual popular growth of these unique automobiles is no longer about being environmentally safe, but also being more geared towards salvaging the economic crisis that exists as well.
  
  It's very safe to say that the time to buy a hybrid car is at an all time high, as most of them have prices that are not too far off from other models. Not to mention, that buyers are rewarded by the government with incentives for taking the time purchase an environmentally friendly vehicle.
  
  There are currently well over 50 different hybrid models that are being sold across the United States, but there are five distinctive vehicles that may be prepped to have the most impact on the world.
•  
  Toyota Prius

   

  There is no better vehicle that highlights fuel efficiency better than the Toyota Prius line. This hybrid vehicle makes a point to not just provide consumers with great gas mileage, but also interior space and versatility.
  
  Toyota has made it possible for buyers to have the option to choose between a large, midsize, and compact version of a very good hybrid automobile in the form of the Prius V, Prius, and Prius c. It won't be long before we begin to see other manufacturers follow suit; in fact, Volkswagen some what has with their plans to make hybrid versions of the Jetta, Passat, and Golf by 2013.
•  
  Chevrolet Volt

   

  When it comes to hybrid vehicles the thing that has grown more impressive is their ability to travel further with their combined power sources. This is clearly seen the Chevrolet Volt and its maximum range of 300 miles which leads all hybrid vehicles at this time.
  
  The ability to go further with less time at the pump can help benefit the economy as whole, and limit the harsh effects of high gas prices. We this already being done by multiple manufacturers, such as Nissan with their Nissan Leaf which is capable of traveling 100 miles off of pure electric power.
•  
  Toyota Camry Hybrid

   

  While some of the environmental autos have been designed in a way that offers limited interior space the Toyota Camry steps in to provide a great option for families. The Prius is able to offer plenty of interior space, but it's more of a wagon/hatchback body style and for those who would prefer a sedan they can have their wish granted with the Camry.
  
  There also is the bonus of having an increase in fuel economy, which proves very useful on family trips and when you have to do extra driving. Of course the Camry is not the only midsize sedan that has made this leap, as it faces stiff competition form the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid, Kia Optima Hybrid, and others in its class.
•  
  Ford Fusion Hybrid

   

  A common complaint that is often found with most hybrid cars is the fact that they might not all ride as smoothly as non-hybrid models. This is easily put to rest by way of the Ford Fusion which offers some of the best handling and enjoyment found in these vehicles.
  
  There also is the bonus of having a high tech interior with numerous features that has proven to be a true highlight with car buyers. Of all the new cars being released in 2013 it is the new Fusion Hybrid that has many people excited as it looks to raise the bar drastically on how hybrid autos should perform.
•  
  Lexus RX 450h

   

  Seeing as sedans and hatchbacks are unable to cater to every group of people the growing success from the Lexus RX 450h shows some promise for hybrid crossovers and luxury vehicles.
  
  The RX makes a point to offer the type of fuel economy that any SUV owner would like to receive while making sure that they also have a great driving experience and comfort you would expect to find a luxury automobile. It may be on the pricey side but it has sparked interest among its competitors as there are hybrid SUVs from Ford, Toyota, Mercedes-Benz, Cadillac, and so many more.
•  
  No longer is a hybrid vehicle simply a sedan or hatchback. We are now in a day and age where pickup trucks are becoming fuel efficient and retaining their power, and crossovers will be able to supply comfort and space that is to be desired.
  
  It maybe safe to say that with the steady rise of automobiles that are capable of meeting the needs of our economy and environment, that we could be approaching a day where neither issue will be a problem.
