Question and answer
I agree that these vehicles are pricey, but don't you think that if more people purchased them they will no be as expensive as they are now. Furthermore, there will be a lot more places to charge your vehicle as well. I also believe the reason these vehicles are so expensive is because oil companies want the prices to be high so people wont buy them. That way they can still continue to make a profit off of gasoline.

Weegy: Yes, and the prices increase annually due to inflation. Getting repair for your vehicle is very costly as well.

User: The Prius is one of the first production hybrid vehicles and has become quite popular considering it is a hybrid. You mention considering all costs associated with a hybrid vehicle. What are some of the costs the typical consumer may forget to consider?

Can anybody think of some other benefits of these hybrid vehicles? Benefits that we might not normally consider?
Weegy: A plug-in hybrid car is similar to a conventional hybrid vehicle—both use a gasoline engine as well as an electric motor. However, a plug-in hybrid uses larger battery packs that can be recharged by connecting to common household electricity. [ Plug-in hybrids can be driven for long distances—from a few miles to as much as 40 miles—without using any gasoline.Plug-in hybrids provide the benefits of an electric car, while maintaining the same driving range as conventional vehicles. Plug-in hybrid drivers travel in an all-electric mode for the vast majority of common local driving. When the battery’s electric charge is depleted, a downsized gas engine is used to either recharge the batteries (as the car moves), or as the primary source of propulsion until recharging the batteries via a plug. ] (More)
