Car Rental Hybrid Driveaway Holidays

As people become more aware of environmental issues and aware of their actions, demand of hybrid cars to buy and rent has risen.

A hybrid car is a car that can operate in two or more sources of fuel - more often an engine and an electric motor powered by batteries. The motor and batteries to help the engine work more efficiently which means you spend less on fuel and emit fewer emissions.

The Toyota Prius is probably the most famous hybrid car. First, was released in 1997 and since then more than 10,000 Prius have been sold in Australia. The Government of Australia Green Vehicle Guide website rates all new vehicles based on greenhouse emissions and air pollution and fuel consumption. The Prius is currently the best performance in all 3 with a fuel consumption of 4.4 liters per 100 km.

For give you an idea of what this means - a Hummer H3 Adventure has a fuel consumption level of 13.2L/100km Toyota Rav 4 Fuel consumption is 9.6L, a Mercedes Benz C is C180K 7.6L and 1.8L Honda Civic sedan has a fuel consumption of 7.2L. According to Toyota, the Prius has up to 50% less consumption than a comparable sized family car and a fuel tank could theoretically get more than a whopping 1000 km!

While hybrid cars are still fairly expensive buy - a 1.5L Toyota Prius gasoline / electric CVT combination will cost $ 37,400 (of www.toyota.com.au ), The rent can be within your budget.

Night security today have hybrids available to rent in France and the U.S., but with car hire providers to add more 'green' cars to their fleets, this is sure to grow over the years to come.

Renting a hybrid does not cost more than renting a car similar in size non-hybrid (due to supply and demand and the fact that hybrids are more expensive for the company hire-purchase), but you will save money on fuel and, of course, is better for the environment. Right click here for more details.
