1/8 Are there any mass-production hybrid vehicles that also let you
recharge it by plugging in to an electric outlet?
\_ whatever happened to Honda's hybrid vehicles? I gotta say, when
Insight came out, I was impressed, but its technology is getting
outdated and obsolete by Toyota. What's up with Honda's research
team?
\_ They have had a hybrid Civic out for a year or two. I see a
lot of them on the roads around here.
\_ I wish Toyota dadded hybrid to the 2004 Sienna, since they were
re-designing it anyway.
\_ It would require an extra component in the car, and wouldn't really
save fossil fuels or money (unless you had solar cells on your house
or something like that)
\_ If you have solar cells on your house and it generates more than
you consume, PG&E doesn't let you sell the surplus power to
them. So recharging a hybrid (or electric) vehical with the
surplus power will be a good way to save fossil fuel and your
money. Or, if you get your power from a green source like
Commonwealth Energy instead of PG&E, that'd save fossil fuel too. |
