The Hybrid • The Hybrid would be a better choice in relation to fuel efficiency because with Hybrid cars, they use less of their engine and breaking system due to the electric motor in it. • Benefits outweigh the cost: Hybrids cars may cost from $3000 to $8000 more than gas powered cars. However, tax breaks average from $2000 to $3000 yearly for buying one. You also can save around $1400 on gas yearly.
