A video by Plug-in Partners promoting the many benefits of Plugin Hybrids Electric Vehicles. If the current U.S. vehicle fleet were replaced overnight with PHEVs, oil consumption would decrease by 70 to 90 percent, eliminating the need for oil imports and leaving the U.S. self-sufficient in oil for many years to come. Even if the electrical power for those vehicles were drawn from coal-fired power plants, CO2 emissions would drop by more than half. If the power were produced by renewable energy sources, and the fuel in the tank were biodiesel or ethanol, the proposition gets exponentially better.
And you can get 100+ MPG!

I will never give up my 70 hemi cuda. Hybrids are for eggheads. try to do a smokey burnout in a hybrid. 0-60 in a week. how well does a hybrid work when the temp is 30 below 0?
The ultimate …
The ultimate solution for saving this planet is to wipeout all humans. Just like the solution to unwanted pregnancy is abstinence… But since both options are out of the question, they should start to commercialize EV’s and Zero Point Energy systems and generators. These industrialists have milked the human race for far too long!!!

Excellent vid! I’ve got a deposit sitting down at the local Toyota dealership just waiting for the first PHEVs to roll in. Our current vehicles can’t last much longer and we can’t wait to PLUG IN!

You know, its not that I’m against alternatives – but its comments like this that expect ridiculous things. You can either go backwards and to a prehistoric footprint where everyone lives like the Amish, you can try to put more government incursion into peoples lives that they already have and ban cars and who knows what else, or you can try to help get new technology off the ground that will help energy and vehicles. I like to think the 3rd option is the best. MT and bikes dont help rural areas

dude were doing it the wrong way there is no way that we can build cars either hybrids or electric driven for every man/woman on this planet

If God wanted us to …
If God wanted us to buy hybreds he would not have put oil in the ground right under our feet. Hybreds fund the liberal agenda of homosex, art, abortion, veganism and satanism. Oil funds freedom and the word of Christ. War brings the word of God to the Godless who practice islam. Without oil, they would never hear the words of Christ.

Why don’t Americans …
Why don’t Americans have PHEVs or even efficient turbo-diesel cars as do Europeans and Japanese? Because the purpose of the Federal Reserve Corporation is to keep US addicted to non-renewable energy, war and debt. Watch “The Money Masters” and investigate Operation 911. (Open Secrets)

the solution is a BIGGER CAR !!!
its called a trolley or electric train
well how bout short distance comutes
you have one already hanging in your garage its called a BICYCLE !!
use it you need to burn of those extra fat hanging in your middle anyway !!!
Driving around 500 …
Driving around 500 to 1000 pounds of batteries to save 2 gallons of gas is stupid. This is especially true when you are talking about lithium-ion. One phrase – thermal runaway is all I need to say here. We need a fundamental technology leap. Until then, use the PPH60 from gogreenwithct. This system uses batteries to power the electrical loads in your car so the extremely inefficient alternator doesn’t have to.

Seems like electric, plug-in hybrid vehicles will be the first automobile evolution to hit the market.
Within the next couple of years, it seems as though there will be a push by all of the major automobile manufacturers to offer plug-ins to customers.
This offers a tremendous investment opportunity in lithium-ion battery companies, as well as in electric motor manufacturers.
