Hybrid cars, and indeed, all electric vehicles are playing a rôle in the salvation of the planet's eco-system. At least, in respect to the world supporting human life. However, hybrid cars will one day be replaced by vehicles that use no irreplaceable energy at at all, once the technology is there. It is likely that there will be at least two such power sources in the near future: electricity and hydrogen - but who knows what else will be available?

Produktbeschreibung
Hybrid cars, and indeed, all electric vehicles are playing a rôle in the salvation of the planet's eco-system. At least, in respect to the world supporting human life. However, hybrid cars will one day be replaced by vehicles that use no irreplaceable energy at at all, once the technology is there. It is likely that there will be at least two such power sources in the near future: electricity and hydrogen - but who knows what else will be available? Hybrid and electric cars are revolutionizing the automotive landscape, offering a myriad of advantages that extend beyond the traditional internal combustion engine. One of the primary benefits is environmental sustainability. Electric cars produce zero tailpipe emissions, significantly reducing air pollution and carbon footprint. As the world grapples with climate change, the shift towards electric vehicles is a crucial step in mitigating environmental impact. Furthermore, these vehicles contribute to energy efficiency. Hybrid cars combine an internal combustion engine with an electric motor, optimizing fuel consumption and reducing reliance on fossil fuels. Electric cars, relying solely on electric power, boast high energy efficiency and cost savings over time. With advancements in battery technology, electric cars now offer extended ranges and faster charging times, addressing concerns about range anxiety. Beyond environmental and economic advantages, hybrid and electric cars provide a smoother and quieter driving experience. The instant torque delivery in electric motors enhances acceleration, making these vehicles not only eco-friendly but also performance-oriented. As governments worldwide incentivise the adoption of cleaner technologies, the advantages of hybrid and electric cars position them as the driving force in the future of sustainable and efficient transportation.
Autorenporträt
Owen Jones, de Barry (Gales) y autor superventas en Amazon, ha vivido en varios países y viajado por muchos más. Mientras estudiaba ruso en la URSS en los años setenta, se codeaba a menudo con espías. Después de la universidad, en Surinam, se vio envuelto en el golpe de 1982, cuando fue acusado de mercenario. Más tarde, siendo director de una empresa, se unió a la tripulación de cuatro personas como galeote para navegar, de Barry a Gibraltar, en un yate de hormigón de fabricación casera durante la Tormenta del Desierto. Durante la travesía, el yate estuvo a punto de ser embestido por un petrolero ruso y un portaaviones estadounidense, el Atlantic Challenger. Desde 2004 ha vivido principalmente en el Reino Unido, España y Tailandia. Ahora lleva una vida algo más tranquila en el remoto pueblo agrícola del norte de su esposa, escribiendo, editando y aumentando el número de traducciones y narraciones de sus novelas.
