Hybrid vs Gas Vehicles

As the Lexus lineup continues to evolve, more drivers are considering the benefits of hybrid vehicles. While hybrid and gas-powered vehicles share many traits, significant differences between them will ultimately play a role in your ownership experience.

Gas vehicles have a combustion engine. These vehicles require you to stop at the gas station regularly. As the traditional type of vehicle, there are numerous gas stations and service stations to visit when your car needs attention. Generally, these models have more acceleration power and a higher towing capacity. They also typically have a more affordable sales price. However, it is important to note that gas as a resource is not renewable. In addition, more harmful emissions are produced from gas vehicles.

Hybrid models also have a combustion engine, but this is mated with a battery-driven motor. Through regenerative braking, the battery is charged. There is no need to charge it with a plug. The battery boosts fuel economy, enabling you to save money. Emissions are reduced. Often, these vehicles have a higher sales price, but they also have a higher resale value. In addition, their rate of acceleration is slower.
