moving (shipping) car from US to Europe?
They don't get near their advertised mileage. Their resale value is low. They are more complex. The batteries wear out. Some are downright ugly. They have barely enough power, usually only small 4 cylinder engines.Have you ever made out in a car, what kind?
Get the one with the GM Ecotec engine, they're the best. The engines are small, but about the most efficient available. The batteries aren't really worth it. All they do is make it so the engine shuts off at a stoplight. That's fine if you stop at lights a whole lot, but if you are on the highway mostly, the batteries are actually a detriment.

Right now.. their price!what type of batteries do hybrid cars have in them?

Are ex-motability cars cheaper?
they don't produce smog, they produce smugNo they pollute less, save money on Gas, save the environment, quieter smoother more efficient, you get rebates from the government, you can drive them in diamond lanes. they are more expensive to buy but in the long run you will get that back from the savings. They probably don't have the acceleration of a gas burner.I would get the new Honda accord v6 hybrid it doesn't get as much mpg as a 4 cylinder hybrid but it has the acceleration you want when getting on the freeway. Plus Honda's have the best resale value and are very reliable.
you need to drive a lot to even notice the gas savings, and even then it takes years to make up the difference in the extra cost of a hybrid. they dont get anywhere near the advertised mileage.

Also, a hybrid is only an advantage in transient conditions - when it can regenerate electricity during downhill descents, or gentle braking, and use it to supplement the engine during assents or accelerations. At a steady cruise on a flat road it is just a heavier version of the internal-combustion-engine powered car.
