Hi Al,
I think hybrids are a good transitional technology until the cost of batteries comes down and the range goes up. I think all hybrids should be serial hybrids with the combustion engine used as a range extender only and not used to drive the wheels. I think all hybrids should have the biggest battery possible with consideration to price. To me hybrids are a compromise I would prefer not to make, but it's by far better than gas only.

A 40 ah nimh or lithium would give 100 mpg or more. What do you think, andrew?
