For example, a Camry hybrid or something similar. How do they drive? Is performance lacking?

Also, how does it impact the car’s reliability and longevity? And are repairs complicated or expensive? Thanks for the insight.

I’m trying to find out how much nickel goes into a standard hybrid car battery.

It would be great if the answer could include the nickel amount in lbs.

Thanks

I’m wondering if the cost of your electriciy bill will go up a lot when you start charging your new hybrid car (such as a Prius)? Does it completely offset the MPG savings in gasoline? Do you break even? Does it cost MORE in electricity?

Ok so with all of the inefficiencies of the reciprocating internal combustion engine why don’t they make a hybrid car powered by a small centrifugal turbine that would work like an aircraft APU. The car would have an all electric drive system and the turbine would produce electricity for the electric motor. The FADEC computer would control fuel flow to the turbine as more power was needed. Trains have been doing this for decades so why not cars? A plus would be that you could use any liquid or flammable gas for fuel.
Ok some peolpe missing the piont it is an electric car not driven directly by the turbine but buy the electricity produced by a generator connected to the turbine so no change in RPM the generator would run at the same RPM for optimal electrical production a change in load would just reqiuer more fuel

Because if you use electricity to run your car instead of gas, then you are getting your energy from nuclear power plants, which is bad?

You may select a hybrid car currently on the market, one that will be available in the future, or a concept hybrid car.
