Prices of fuel are rising day by day and the standard vehicles are posing a threat to the environment with the green house effect. This has prompted researchers to look for alternative sources of energy. In the vehicle, the internal combustion of the engine is the biggest contributor to pollution. Hybrid cars are now growing in popularity and attention because of these problems. There are a lot of manufacturers either working of making these cars or offering them for sale in the market.

There are two main types of hybrid cars: parallel hybrids and series hybrids. The former has both gas engine and batteries for electric motor. The car is run by a small gas engine and when there is additional power required, the electric comes to the rescue. This is necessary for increasing the speed. Honda is using this kind of technology right now.
