Check out this video link: http://www.youtube.com/watchv=XdRS7eVVZbU                                   Electric motors in the wheels appear to be the most efficient for hybrid automobiles. the installing of electric motors in the wheels (Hub Motors) not only make for much more room but allows for the placement of a small motorcycle engine to charge the batteries and is a superior way to go.     This motorcycle engine is not intended to drive at freeway speeds but to provide enough horsepower for the battery charges .  The batteries will take you down the road at freeway plus speeds.                                               You need not be a rocket scientist to figure this out.                                   All you need is to install an engine that gets 100 plus miles per gallon and, like the Toyota Prius plug in, or like the Toyota Spirit of D.C. that gets 100 miles to the gallon. The installation of a 5 gallon tank will allow you to travel a minimum of 500 miles before you have to plug in or get more gas. YOU SAY,”IT COSTS ME TOO MUCH MONEY TO BUY ONE OF THESE MACHINES.”                                                                                                      I contacted a college statistician and he calculated the following:                 1. A 25 year old today will drive for a minimum of 25 years and travel 1,876,875 miles.                                                                                            2. At a price of 15 cents per mile, they will spend: $281,531.00. That’s for gas only and does not include parts, repairs, oil changes or car replacement purchases.                                                                                                      3. The current cost per mile of an all electric plug-in is 2 cents or a cost for that time: $ 37,537.00                                                                                   4. This total of a saving to you of $243,993.00                                             5. A plug-in  hybrid that gets 100 miles to the gallon will cost: $ 4.8 cents per mile, or a total of $90,090.00: Savings : $191,441.00.

EVEN AT A PURCHASE PRICE OF 40 OR 50 THOUSAND THE OVER ALL SAVINGS ARE GREAT.
