I'm curious what is going to happen with the hybrids when their electric motor & batteries start to give out. It seems like with a hybrid, you are going to have high maintenance costs because there is this whole other subsystem within your car. When people can't afford to repait the electric motor and such, will they just keep driving it, on the gas engine? Or will they just "trade it in" earlier?
The best way to conserve on energy, it seems to me, is to keep your existing car running in top shape. People don't realize that with every car that is produced, a lot of energy was consumed from harvesting the raw materials to putting the finishing coats of paint on. |
