The Many Benefits of Hybrid and Electric Hyundai Vehicles

More and more, our drivers in Chesterfield are asking questions about alternative fuel vehicles. These vehicles have the features and space that their gas-powered counterparts do but are better for the environment. Alternative fuel vehicles use electricity or hydrogen instead of gas to power your vehicle. These are renewable resources that are better for the environment than gas. While hybrid vehicles are the most common, there are other types of alternative fuel vehicles for our Midlothian drivers who are wanting to be more environmentally conscious. Hyundai is keeping up with the demand for these types of vehicles by adding more and more alternative fuel engines to their already popular models.

Hybrids

Hybrid vehicles and hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) are the most well-known alternative fuel vehicles. These are the easiest vehicles to introduce yourself to the alternative fuel line. Hybrid vehicles combine two or more types of power to run your vehicle, like an electric motor and a gas-powered engine. These engines can work in conjunction or separately from each other. The gas engine can help power the battery to make it last longer. Adding a battery-powered motor to the engine can result in less gas burned, giving you better fuel economy.

Plug-In Hybrids

Plug-in hybrids use a larger battery pack than the hybrid version. These battery packs have to be charged by being plugged into outside forces. Unlike getting gas, you are not tied to recharging your battery at a gas station. You can plug in your car to your home outlets in Mechanicsville for extra convenience, but more and more charging stations are popping up in grocery store parking lots. While there is also a gas-powered engine in the vehicle, it will primarily use the battery-powered motor until that runs out.

Electric Vehicles

Electric vehicles are less common than hybrid vehicles, but they are starting to show up more and more in different brands' lineups. These vehicles put out zero emissions while driving because there is no gas-powered engine at all. These vehicles rely solely on a battery-powered motor. Like the plug-in hybrids, these battery packs get their power from electricity and are charged when plugged in.

Fuel Cell

Fuel cell vehicles get their power from hydrogen. These also create no tailpipe emissions and instead emit water vapors and warm air, causing no harm to the environment. These vehicles use a propulsion system like electric vehicles. Hydrogen gets stored in the propulsion system and then is converted to electricity by the fuel cell to power the motor.

Why Buy an Alternative Fuel Vehicle?

Since hybrid vehicles require less gas and EVs operate solely on electric power, gas expenses will fade. EVs take the next step by completely eliminating vehicle emissions. And since they don't operate with components of a typical gas-powered engine, you'll eliminate much of your regular maintenance, like oil changes and tune-ups.

Hybrid and Plug-in Hybrid Hyundai Cars in Virginia

Hybrids operate with a gas-powered engine as their main power source and a smaller electric battery for backup. Traditional hybrids utilize a smaller battery used at low-speed driving. Plug-in Hybrids utilize their larger battery as the main power source and requires "plugging in" to recharge.
