4. HISTORY OF HYBRID CARS
The history of hybrid cars stretches back over 100 years. The first hybrid
car was built in the year 1899 by engineer Ferdinand Porsche. The
demand for hybrids began to wane, however, when Henry Ford started
the first automobile assembly line in 1904. Ford's ability to produce
gasoline-powered cars and offer them at low prices dramatically shrunk
the hybrid vehicle market. Hybrids soon became a thing of the past,
beginning a nearly 50-year period where they were merely an
afterthought.

11. CONCLUSION
11
Hybrid cars are definitely more environmentally friendly than
internal-combustion vehicles. Batteries are being engineered
to have a long life. When the hybrid cars become more
widespread, battery recycling will become economically
possible. Research into other energy sources such as fuel cells
and renewable fuels make the future look brighter for hybrid
cars.
