The vehicle I saw most probable to be manufactured to the mainstream public, was between the hybrid and the electrical car. I have already seen many Honda Prius cars and hybrid cars on the market and they are highly favored. Every car has a downside, but I think people are looking past that, and looking for cars that not only have fewer CO2 emissions, but is also easy on the wallet when it comes to gas prices. The electrical car seems popular with some of my friends who don’t mind plugging it in every night and driving around town.

The disadvantage to Lithium battery powered cars such as the Tesla Roadster is that it is extremely expensive and probably not in any middle class American’s price range for a fuel-efficient car. The lithium batteries are expensive to replace, but light. The advantage to a battery-powered car is that it has no CO2 emissions, can still go fast, and it is still stylish and light. According to Slate magazine and other source, it has nothing but positive reviews.

First of all, I’d be the last person America would choose as president. But f I was president, I would take major steps to managing our energy policy by reducing taxes for those individuals who owned fuel efficient cars and drove fewer miles (inspection date to inspection date) I would favor research towards saving energy, and encourage major businesses to put up solar panels on their buildings.
