There are a lot of cars to choose from, which one fits your needs and wants?

 If you hate paying for gas, Listen up!!!!

Introduction Introduction Which one is right for You?

 Hybrid  Diesel  Gasoline

 What is a Hybrid Car?  Uses a combination gas and Electric motor  Uses large battery to power Electric motor  Electric motor assists Gas motor

 What are the Pros?  EPA estimated MPG  No need to plug in to recharge  Some states give tax incentives to buy

 What are the Cons?  Cost several thousand more  Batteries are 3-4,000$ to replace  Lacks Power and performance

 What is a Diesel?  Does not have spark plugs  Usually Turbo Charged  Relies on heat and compression for combustion

 What are the Pros?  Diesel Fuel has more “Potential Energy”  Diesel engines last 3-4 times longer  Burns much cleaner

 What are the Cons?  Fuel costs cents more  Requires more routine maintenance  Requires use of DEF (diesel exhaust fluid)

 What is SEGV (super efficient gas vehicle)?  Regular gas engine  Weight and aerodynamics efficiency maximized  Computer closely monitors engine performance

 What are the Pros?  Cost less  Easy to maintain  Uses unleaded gasoline

 What are the Cons?  Very few auto makers make these cars  Gas engines don’t last as long  Medium power range

 Diesel is the most efficient and longest lasting engine, it also has the most power  Fuel cost more and maintaining the vehicle is more expensive  Better for people that drive long distances  Diesel engines last longer

 Hybrid Cars are the most fuel efficient option  Great people that drive short distances  Many automakers makes many different types  SUVs, trucks, and crossovers  Expensive batteries  Additional cost to purchase

 SEGVs are a new type of gasoline vehicle  Use a regular gasoline engine  Relatively inexpensive to maintain  Good for all around driving, short distances and road trips  Very few automakers make SUEVs
