Individual Assignment : Section 2
Development

The hybrid car is more useful than the gasoline propelled car. This is because the hybrid car is smaller, more practical and saves energy. Over time, companies have come up with new features for such developments in cars, for example some companies build it with extra advantages  like the ability to go up steep hills, easier parking features, better acceleration, and the programmed ability to stop and go in heavier traffic more easily. Other companies have made other features like the shut off engine, which can automatically switch to another source without any command. They also worked on the materials these cars made of, which meant a lighter car with enormous speed, as the older models were too slow. (Alves.2009)

          Countries that wanted to go more green tried to support hybrid cars, since they are environment friendly. In some countries a man who owns a hybrid car has many additional benefits, such as a discount on many services, like parking and amendments to his model. For people who are trying to go green, hybrid cars will support their cause, since they produce lower amounts of CO2 than gasoline only cars. It is obvious that the result of all this technology will be a decrease in the use of gasoline motors on the road over and a bigger dependency on electricity as a power source. Such cars will also use a gasoline feature that mixes with other forms of power that could reduce pollution on the planet (Cohen.2011). However, it has to be noted that the energy required  to make this car is much greater than a regular car, so it is not a clear cut case.
