It is important that you know how to assess hybrid car tires for better performance. Gas mileage is influenced more than just the weight and size of the tire. Keep in mind that rolling resistance of a tire has a bigger influence. Basically, harder tires equals less rolling resistance.
Generally, if the tire is too round or too hard, the tire-patch will be too small to adhere to the road surface effectively. The case is similar when it comes to tread designs and patterns. The more intricate the tread design, the better it will be able to adhere to the road better. But this also produces a chance for air, dirt, snow or water to become trapped. Ultimately, the engine will have to work harder and the car's mileage will be minimized.
The majority of hybrid cars utilize some kind of low rolling resistance tire. While the low resistance tires will improve mileage, there have been reports from consumers that they were not pleased by the way the tires dealt with the road. But at the end of the day, it's all about your personal requirements. If you drive aggressively, for instance, then a softer tire will be ideal. Otherwise, tires with the lowest resistance might be the best for you.
Several hybrid car users suggest an absolute minimum of psi or 35 psi. You should go through the manufacturer's advice, and find out on your own how comfortable you are with pumping up your tires for an increase in mpg. Always remember, though, the safety issues regarding over-inflating your tires. Hopefully, this article has given you the opportunity to learn more about hybrid car tires so you'll know how to assess them before purchase.

Electric cars were once only the notions of science fiction fantasy and imaginative cartoons. Remember the Jetsons? Well, we have not exactly reached that level of mass air-car mobility, but with electronic cars we are getting closer every day. Electric cars only trickled onto the market in the 1990's. I can still remember when stars like Ed Begley Jr. started promoting electric cars. I thought that this was something that would just be another Hollywood trend. Not so. It seems that the charge of the environmentalists have stuck a nerve and a slew of environment friendly electronic cars are popping up. Some are hybrids and some are 100% electronic cars like the 2011 World Car of the Year award winning Nissan Leaf™. The Nissan Leaf is a beautiful electric car that has made leaps and bounds above the rest on the market today. Besides being announced the 2011 World Car of the Year, it has electric car features that have proven to be the most desirable for all conscientious environmentalists, seeking personal transportation that is environment friendly. • Absolutely no ozone layer shattering tailpipe emissions• Does not use gas• QuietAdd these features to the unique style, and comfort of the new Nissan Leaf and a new level of modern vehicle is achieved. Some of the features of the 2011 Nissan Leaf are:• Electric powered steering• Recycled interior fabrics• Push button ignition• 100 miles on one full charge• And much moreThe Nissan Leaf is the leader in electric cars worldwide today.Electric cars are the wave of the futureOur planet's dwindling oil supply coupled with the diminishing health of the planet and consistent health concerns of humans, plants, and animals has left car developers with a window to become greener out of necessity. Gasoline emissions directly affect our health, our food supply, and the food supply of the earth: our shelter. Without real solutions to these issues, we will loose all of these and eventually cease to exist. This is a fact. Every little thing that we can do to overcome this fate is needed. A huge issue has been the large footprint gasoline emissions have left on the planet. The introduction of electronic cars will help to alleviate this strain on our environment. Electric cars are simply cleaner and more environment friendly. So in your effort to go green you should choose an electronic car for your personal mode of transportation. And that car should be the new Nissan Leaf.

Shopping for a hybrid car is quite different from shopping for a regular car. You know that the hybrid will be easy on your budget and great for the environment but what else do you need to ask yourself? Here is a list of questions you need to answer to be able to find your ideal hybrid car.
Do you drive mostly on the highway or do you stick to city roads more? Many hybrids are great for highway driving but others are better when it comes to city roads. Figuring out what kind of driver you are is key to picking the right hybrid to meet your needs.
Do you need to save a lot of gas? The Honda Civic and the Toyota Prius hybrids are both excellent hybrids when it comes to saving a lot of gas. There are also many others who will run a close second to these cars.
Ar you interested in a sedan or would you rather have an SUV? As of today the hybrid car buyer is limited to one or the other but come the year 2009 you will also be able to choose from a full-sized pickup truck. Both the Chevy Silverado and the GM Sierra will be available in a hybrid.
Do you require a lot of space? Once you start shopping for a hybrid you will notice that many of the cars that were once roomier in a regular car are not as large on the interior now that they are a hybrid. If you require a lot of room you might want to make sure you throughly check to see if the hybrid you want has enough leg and head room to accommodate you comfortably. Don’t forget to think about traveling. Many new hybrids are short on storage space.
Are you interested in a hybrid that is less or more dependent on it’s battery pack? With hybrid cars some use the battery pack more than others will. They have the ability to switch from the gas engine while coasting or at very low speeds. If your interested in a hybrid like this then the Toyota Camry, Toyota Prius or even the Honda Civic is the one to check out.
Do you have the ability to pay for a hybrid? Hybrid cars cost more than regular cars by about ,000 to ,000. This increase can greatly effect what cars you are able to afford and whether you can have any extras.
Did you know you can receive a tax credit from purchasing a hybrid? The New Energy tax credit is give when less than 60,000 units of any hybrid have been sold. This credit is up to ,400. Once 60,00 units have sold the government will begin reducing the credit. Ask your dealer for more information.
People buy hybrid cars for many reasons. Once you have decided why your purchasing a hybrid it will make the choice in which hybrid to purchase that much easier.

Could Carbon Nano Tube Batteries Help Drive the Recovery of the Auto Manufacturers?
Phoenix, AZ (PRWEB) August 9, 2009
Next Alternative Inc. wants to steer the future of the electric car and the U.S. auto industry itself into greener, and much more distant, pastures. Destinations that were once unattainable by the most efficient battery-powered cars will be an easy road trip with one of the company's new Carbon Nano Tube batteries (CNT Battery) under the hood.
With 8 times the Reserve Capacity (RC) of typical lead/acid batteries, CNT Battery technology allows cars to travel hundreds of miles between charges, up to an estimated 380 miles per charge. Even more impressive, CNT Batteries recharge in ten minutes from a regular electrical outlet, about the time it takes for a highway road trip pit stop. An hour's worth of recharging could add up to a pollution-free, coast-to-coast trip through Capitol Hill. The battery can be modified to the specifications of existing batteries.
CNT batteries provide the hybrid and electric car markets with a battery that far exceeds anything currently available to them at this time. Micro Bubble Technology, Inc. (MBTI), based in South Korea, developed CNT Battery technology. Carbon Nano Tubes are tiny tubular structures composed of a single layer of carbon atoms. MBTI developed a proprietary method of coating the anode, cathodes and modifying the electrolyte with Carbon Nano Tubes. The diminutive tubes hold 8 times as much energy as the lead in lead/acid batteries, and can hold a minimum of 2 times as much energy as rechargeable lithium batteries.
"CNT Batteries are superior to lead/acid batteries, lithium batteries and the silicone batteries powering electric cars today. Silicone based batteries perform better than current lead/acid batteries but do not allow electric vehicles to have a long range and require lengthy recharge times. Lithium-based batteries are expensive to produce and have lengthy recharge times. CNT technology will revolutionize the electric car industry, propelling it forward with battery that gives cars a much longer range and minimal recharge time." Next Alternative, Inc., President and CEO, Robert Ireland
As the U.S. government pushes for less dependence on fossil fuels through the development of alternative energy solutions, and leans on auto manufactures to create greener, more fuel efficient vehicles, the introduction of CNT batteries may just give the U.S. auto manufacturers the extra boost to help get their businesses back up to speed.
About Next Alternative Inc.
Next Alternative Inc. (TYN.F) develops the next generation of new green technology, specializing in alternative battery, fuel and electric motors. Next Alternative strives to bring to the world an alternative to fossil fuels and increased efficiencies in the world automotive arena. With offices in Phoenix USA and Ottawa Canada and distribution operations in Davenport, IA, Next Alternative Inc. holds the manufacturing and distribution rights for the Carbon Nano Tube Batteries for Canada, United States and Mexico.

Good Stuff Auto to Sell Wheego Electric Cars
Atlanta, Georgia (PRWEB) June 9, 2010
WHEEGO ELECTRIC CARS, manufacturer of all-electric vehicles, today announced it has appointed Good Stuff Auto as its dealer with exclusive rights to sell the Wheego Electric Car product line throughout Marin, Sonoma, Napa, Lake and Mendocino Counties in California.
Good Stuff Auto owners Jim and Barbara Bennett are adding an Electric Boutique to their twenty-year-old dealership. "There is a great deal of interest in Electric Vehicles in our area," says Jim Bennett. "We think the Wheego Whip is a perfect addition to our Electric Boutique. It's reasonably priced, stylish and fun to drive - but with no emissions, no gas and no noise. The Wheego vehicles are assembled in California, so we're also happy about supporting another California business."
Wheego President Jeff Boyd feels Good Stuff Auto is a good fit for the Wheego brand. "Californians have led the way in Electric Vehicle interest and usage," says Boyd. "We anticipate tremendous demand for EVs and are excited to have signed Good Stuff Auto. Jim and Barbara Bennett have a proven twenty-year track record of offering their clients a very personal sales and service experience. Seventy percent of their sales are repeat or referral business. They will take good care of our customers, and we are happy to have them join us."
The Wheego Whip LiFe Full-Speed all-electric car is expected this summer. The Whip LiFe runs on a lithium battery pack, and will go approximately 100 miles on a charge. The retail price on the Wheego Whip LiFe is $ 32,995; the Whip LiFe qualifies for a $ 7,500 Federal Tax Credit, and a $ 5,000 State of California Rebate. The LiFe is anticipated to be the first affordable all-electric car to be widely available in the U.S.
The Wheego Whip LSV (Low-Speed Vehicle) is available now at Good Stuff Auto and other dealers across the country. It runs on sealed lead-acid batteries and qualifies for a 10% Federal Tax Credit in 2010. With a sticker price of $ 18,995, the Wheego Whip LSV net price is just over $ 17,000. The Whip LSV is an "around-town" car, with a range of about 40 miles per charge and a maximum speed of 35mph. "The Wheego LSV isn't going to be a family's only car," says Jim Bennett. "But if you commute daily in the LSV and use it for all your local errands, you'll find you are leaving your 'thirsty' car in the garage two-thirds of the time. You're using far less gas, you're extending the life of your bigger car, and you're lessening your carbon footprint. At the end of the summer, we'll have the highway-ready LiFe available here as well. We are inviting everyone to come in and take the LSV for a spin to get a preview for how the full-speed will feel. We'll start taking reservations this month for the full-speed. What's happening in the Gulf of Mexico right now is awakening in people a need to do something positive for the environment, and to begin to move the U.S. toward oil independence and a cleaner future. We are excited about being a part of that positive change."
Both Wheego Whip models are fully-loaded two-seat compact cars with fit, finish and features that compete with any other subcompact car on the market. Features include remote keyless entry, air conditioning, and MP3 stereo system.
