The nickel metal hydride battery is charged when applying the brakes or coasting. Because of this we don’t address issues such as long-term reliability or total cost of ownership. We also feature those efficient gas-powered vehicles that are among the top mpg vehicles in their class. Your numbers may differ.

Despite significant progress, fuel cell durability must be substantially increased and/or the cost of replacement fuel cell stacks must be substantially decreased. Many participants believe that government support for larger deployments (50-100 vehicles), and bigger hydrogen bus purchases, will help to bring down bus costs.

Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) would combine today’s new gas-electric hybrid technology with larger batteries that could provide an all-electric operating range of 25 to 35 miles or more. The result is an 80+ mile-per-gallon vehicle — with even greater fuel economy possible utilizing bio-fuels.

It had a 110 kW electric motor, and a nickel-metal hydride battery served as a buffer. It follows the A3 Sportback g-tron as the brand’s second model to use natural gas or climate-friendly Audi e-gas. The pistons and valves have been specially modified for gas operation and allow for an optimal compression ratio.

Despite this, a 2003 EPRI study , assuming only $2/gallon gas , zero buying incentives, and a PHEV premium of $3-$5,000 more than standard hybrids, shows that the total lifetime cost of ownership for a PHEV will be lower than that of any other vehicle type -- so the payback will be there. Are the batteries recyclable?

The electric grid is the most advanced energy-distribution network ever created and is constantly only a few feet away from us (far more ubiquitous than gas/ethanol/hydrogen stations). Lithium, nickel metal hydrides and even advanced lead acid products are now capable of great energy storage and have strong recycle lives.

This is a much bigger call than choosing VHS over Betamax, because owning a dead end technology could cost you $50,000. I bet a used Stanley Steamer didn’t fetch much in 1925 when gas stations made it to every street corner. Today we could be using lead-acid EVs, lead-carbon-acid EVs, or nickel metal hydride or lithium-ion hybrids.
