Question

A hybrid car is a motor vehicle that uses two or more different sources of power. In most hybrids, you will find an internal combustion engine in addition to an electrical motor. Depending on how the vehicle is driven and the availability of power, the car uses gasoline and battery power alternately.

In this assignment, you will research five different hybrid cars and evaluate their impact on the environment.

Using the readings for this module, the Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet, do the following:

Identify the top five most popular choices of hybrid cars. Analyze the advantages and disadvantages of each car’s technology, price, manufacturing, and impact on environment. Include the scientific principles involved in the technology.

Determine which type of car would work best for you and your family. Justify your decision based on your analysis of the five hybrid cars.

Explain the impact these cars will have on the United States’ economy. Consider the following issues in your analysis: consumer buying, sustainability, recycling, and fuel economy.

Evaluate the impact that hybrid-car technology has had or could have on the United States’ political relationships with oil-producing countries. Be sure to include an analysis of economic issues such as production, supply, and trade.

Describe how this technology will influence world politics. Include an analysis of economic issues such as production, supply, and trade.

Answer 1

• Actually in hybrid card both internal combustion engine and electric motors are used to drive vehicles through transmission system.
• Specially combined transmission to be designed to take source of power from engine as weel as motors
• Engine power to be developed by using fuels like gasoline as same as regular vehicles
• While electric driven motor to be connected to tranmission system to drive vehicles and batteries are used to provide source of current to batteries
• I prefer five vehicles best in class for hybrid vehicles categary as

1. Ford fusion hybrid :
   Fuel eceonomy : 42 mpg
   Seating capacity : 5 persons
   Cargo capacity : 12 cu ft
   Price : Basic : $26,000
2. Toyoya Camry Hybrid :
   Fuel eceonomy : 38-40 mpg
   Seating capacity : 5 persons
   Cargo capacity : 13.1 cu ft
   Price : $29,000
3. Toyota hylander hybrid :
   Fuel eceonomy : 28 mpg
   Seating capacity : 7-8 persons

• I suggest to choose Toyoya Camry hybrd better engine power,Moderate Price range,Fulfill safety criteria and fuel economy
• As world continuously struggling with oil issues the technology for hybrid or purte electric cars picking growth very speedly to fulfill customer demands
• Also world facing issue of air pollution whick direct impact on global warming and health of human beings so the world thinking seriously to move towards better resources as compare to oil.
• Also impact of Hybrid technology on US markets puts more impression as US now going to manufacture OIL inhouse from last 10 years so the eceonomy will effect ot because it direct effect on less demand of OIL supply
• Middle east countries more worries about Hybrid cars and electric cars because they are major manufacture and supplier for oils so once demand of OIL geeting lower throught the world it will imapct on economy of OILsupplier countries.
• As throught the world noe focussion to Hybrid and electric cars technology and set target to roll out all Petrol/Diesel cars by next 10-15 years
