I also find that most hybrid cars are prohibitively expensive to buy, especially when there is increased tax related to cars. However, according to a report from Report Buyer (http://www.reportbuyer.com/go/RBY00006), worldwide demand for light HEVs is expected to increase dramatically. It says Micro hybrids can reduce fuel consumption up to 20% in congestions capitals such as London and Paris. Midsize full HEVs are potentially 40 to 50 percent more fuel efficient compared to a conventional vehicle. I live outside London. Sometimes the attempt to use alternative forms of transport is not really practical. Although I welcome every idea to become greener, I guess it is easy to say than do it properly in reality.
