Just watched five sequels of Gilmore Girls Season 7 on DVD, feeling kind of GG-stoned :-)Noticed a nice product placement ... Rory's driving a Toyota Prius, one of the first affordable hybrid cars.
The system is quite intelligent IMHO, please have a look: hybridsynergydrive.comAnd for Volvo fans like me there are good news:
Volvo shows at the IAA Motorshow in Frankfurt the brand new C30 hybrid. This Volvo C30 hybrid can drive on bio fuel but it’s main source is electricity. You can plug it in the wall and fully loaded the car can drive 60 miles. Loading the electricty will take 3 hours. The Bio fuel will only be called upon when it is needed.
The fuelcosts of a C30 hybrid will be 80% less then having a “normal” car and the CO2 emission will be 60% less then the most efficiant cars available on the market right now.
The main difference between the Volvo Hybrid and hybrid cars like those of Honda, Toyota and Lexus is that Volvo C30 uses the electricty as it’s main source of power as the others use it as a short assistence for normal fuel.
And it's developed in the US ... seems like Al Gore had some impact after all ... just a wild guess!!!!
