Gas Powered Vehicle
As the name implies, a gasoline powered vehicle uses a combustion engine as a source of power. It has a fuel tank that stores gas to the engine which drives the transmission and turns the wheels.
Pros
Through a single filled tank, a gas-powered vehicle can run more than a few time longer than an electric automobile.
A gallon of gas is much denser than batteries in terms of energy. For instance, 1 gallon of gas (7 pounds) produces the similar sum of power as 1000 pounds of batteries.
It can keep up with the traffic on the highway.
You have the widest vehicle options. From compact to full-size automobile, from pickup trucks to SUVs, from minivans to luxury automobiles, you can jump from one vehicle dealer to another and still get the best vehicle varieties.
gas and electric combined
You can also choose from different kinds and sizes of engines.
Cons
With the soaring prices of gaseum, getting a gas tank full is very expensive. Combustion engine wastes a lot of energy and consumes a lot of gas. It also produces pollutants that contribute to the depletion of the natural environment.
Electric Automobile
An electric vehicle has a battery that supply power to the electric motor, which then drives the transmission and turns the wheels.
Pros
Since it does not consume fuel, an electric vehicle emits no toxic fumes which are good news for the environment.
Although the battery pack is expensive, electric power is cheaper as compared to pump prices.
Cons
The battery can power the car short distances on a single charging.
Batteries of an electric car take several hours to charge.
Electric vehicles cannot store up with the traffic.
Its top speed is slower than gas autos.
Hybrid Vehicle – Problem resolved
Hybrid vehicles become the best of both engines. It uses both an electric motor and a combustion engine to push the automobile. That means that a hybrid can either run on an electric motor and use the advantages of an electric automobile, or run on a combustion engine and use the edge of a gas powered vehicle. Or, it can run on both at the same time. Depending on the variety of hybrid car, you can have the best fuel efficiency with a performance similar or even better than its non-hybrid counterpart.
