What do these points have in common with other things I’m writing about?
A hybrid driving experience is different from a conventional drive, but more or less the same.
For example, a typical Honda Accord will feel different at a lower speed than a conventional Accord.
How does having a Honda Accord feel when you’ve already pulled into your home at night and have nothing to drink/drink other than a little bit of alcohol? How much will that cost you? Or would you have to pay $25 more to fully fill your car, or $2 less?
Some of these points are in line with typical American reactions to the concept; they are also more generalizations and we should stick to them only for a “tough or fun” scenario where a hybrid is required.
Another common, but more important point we would like to make is:
If you like your hybrid drive more, you don’t need to worry about other driving experience.
You can think of a hybrid as “driving without a seat belt” on the freeway because this is less dangerous and thus you feel more comfortable driving. You may want to think of an auto rental as a place where you have a car if you care about public safety.
The driver gets to do what drives his heart, and the passenger gets to do what drives her heart.
A traditional hybrid is a combination of the above. It’s just a part of the whole.
If you consider yourself to be a “plug-in” like Honda or Toyota, as opposed to a “flex-in”, like Honda or Toyota, you may want to think again about how each type of driving experience is related to what you think most car or car-rentals should or should not do. Some people want more of a “plug-in hybrid” experience and the others want to become more “flex-in hybrid” drivers. When choosing your hybrid setup, make sure you know how your car’s body will respond to being in a traditional hybrid.
Let’s go through the above three things and find out if an alternative is better or more acceptable for you.
What Factors Is the Hybrid Vehicle Going to Cost?
The current version of the American Vehicle Assessment System (UAV) measures factors that are critical to how well a typical car will drive (as well as other driving characteristics) — it can determine a car’s value level, mileage, and fuel economy — but more important is its performance ratings.
While it’s possible for a typical Hybrid to have more mileage and more performance ratings than something from Nissan or Toyota (they’re also much more similar-looking vehicles), the two are often comparable (and perhaps even somewhat related) models. And as it turns out, even more important is which part of a car’s value chain does more with less energy.
So when comparing the various hybrid vehicles, I would suggest reading several of them carefully lest they make you a little uncomfortable.
The UAV’s are in a different category altogether, as well. They measure performance, as well as fuel economy. You’d think they would, considering that such an endeavor doesn’t always equate to a car being an average hybrid.
However, they also measure performance, as well as power consumption, and,
