Cars are everywhere, and in the past they have been a thirsty lot, drinking precious fuel by the barrel and belching toxins by the cubic yard. But the tide is changing, and green mobiles are moving from the design board onto the highways and byways (I just love saying that).
The infographic below looks at the different types of the most common green vehicle of today and the near future. If you were curious as to the differences between a PHEV, EV, HEV, and a FCEV, then read on for a very informative rundown of green vehicles.
But as technology continues to expand the green vehicle capabilities, we may soon all drive a vehicle that is kinder to the environment while still offering a lot of that get up and go that makes driving fun. And that seems like a pretty good future to me.
Hybrid Vehicle
A hybrid vehicle is a vehicle that uses two or more distinct power sources to move the vehicle. The term most commonly refers to hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), which combine an internal combustion engine and one or more electric motors.
