Default Hybrid Myths

Chow me if necessary, but I did a search for this article dispelling 10 hybrid myths.

Quote:
1. You need to plug in a hybrid car.
I honestly don't know why people ever thought this. Unless people saw the words "electric/gas hybrid auto" and never bothered to read the description of how they work.

Quote:
2. Hybrid batteries need to be replaced.
My supervisor tried to sell me this one just the other day; according to him, not only do they need to be replaced but it costs about $100,000 to do so.
