Re: PHEV plug-in hybrids
Billy345 I don't think you got your answer on hybrids compared to the new CDI clean bio-diesel vehicles.
Judge for yourself with a few of this items.
Can the bio-diesel stop idling at the light or stop signs ? (NO)
Can it shut down it's motor when at spped or slowing down ? (NO)
Can it use regenerative braking and recapture that energy to run with ? (NO)
No, so far only a full hybird can do all those great things. Someday a series bio-diesel hybrid will come out and do those and run on clean diesel. Thta will be a real fair comparision. Until then I feel the full hybrid like the Prius has the best efficiency.
When we get plug-in hybrids they could also be made to run on bio-diesel but so far all have been gas models. They could also use injected hybridgen or E85 .
