Hybrids.

If you want to help the environment by reducing tailpipe emissions, think small and think hybrid. Furthermore, these economy cars get unprecendented fuel mileage, getting 2 - 3x more mpgs than a normal car.

Gas/Electric Hybrids.

What are your opinions on them?

however speculative as it sounds, there is always the possibility that the cell prices will drop as more hybrids are being sold

All ugly, not to mention slow as shit. Granted, they may not be made to go fast, but man, at least they could make them look better.

Sort of. See those wheel covers on the Insight? Thats aerodynamics at work. They mostly rely on the fact that they dont weigh much at all.
