Hybrid Cars; Whats The Big Deal?
2008-03-25 05:24:00 Whats The Big Deal About Hybrid Cars?By Steven H. LongoriaAs we all become more environmentally conscious, efforts are being made worldwide to reduce the pollution caused by the cars you drive, the trucks that deliver the goods to your favorite stores, your kids' school buses.You've probably seen newspaper articles and TV news reports on hybrid cars.

Saab And Volvo Joint Venture for Plug-In Hybrid Cars
2008-03-19 17:22:00 Swedish manufacturers Saab and Volvo - along with electricity provider Vattenfall, battery company ETC and the Swedish state - are launching a joint venture to develop technology for plug-in hybrid cars. There are of course several hybrids on the market already, but none of them are plug-ins. A normal hybrid captures energy which would normally be lost during braking and stores it in the battery for the electric motor. Plug-ins draw electricity from the mains, and while this might at first seem to be a backwards step it's claimed that CO2 emissions will be lower for a plug-in car than for a conventional hybrid - all the more so if the mains electricity comes from a hydro electric station or a wind farm.Volvo says it intends to introduce normal hybrid cars"in the medium term".Meanwhile, the joint venture consortium will start off with a fleet of ten plug-ins along the lines of the Volvo C30 ReCharge concept which made its first public appearance last autumn.
