Good morning,

If you're thinking about buying a new vehicle fuel efficiency
should be on the top of your list of must haves. If you are
thinking about a hybrid vehicle, but be careful which hybrid
you buy. Many hybrids currently in the market are no more fuel
efficient that their non-hybrid versions.

Thanks for reading,

Your Living Green editor

The car that started the hybrid craze, the Toyota Prius, is
lauded for squeezing 40 or more miles out of a gallon of gas,
and it really can. But only when it's being driven around
town, where its electric motor does its best and most active
work.

On a cross-country excursion in a Prius, the staff of
Automobile Magazine discovered mileage plummeted on the
Interstate. In fact, the car's computer, which controls the
engine and the motor, allowing them to run together or
separately, was programmed to direct the Prius to spend most
of its highway time running on gasoline because at higher
speeds the batteries quickly get exhausted.

Indeed, the gasoline engine worked so hard that we calculated
we might have used less fuel on our journey if we had been
driving Toyota's conventionally powered, similarly sized
Corolla ? which costs thousands less.
