The following passage is reprinted from the article titled "Benefits of Green Eco-Friendly Cars"
Eco-friendly car run on electricity or a combination of electricity and hydrogen-based fuel. Both represent low-cost methods of transportation while also reducing the amount of the driver’s carbon footprint on the Earth. In addition, environmentally-friendly cars are constantly being enhanced and redesigned with even more emphasis on reducing pollution and waste. As a result, these cars often require less maintenance than gas-powered vehicles.
Eco-friendly vehicles are a great alternative to traditional gas-powered ones. The benefits of such cars include better gas mileage, less dependence on foreign oil, reduced exhaust emissions, and saved money for drivers. Electric cars use no gasoline at all, as they powered by batteries. And, hybrid vehicles are powered by internal combustion engines and an electric motor. These cars' use of electricity results in fewer emissions being released into the atmosphere. The downsides of using these vehicles are few and far between. But, they have historically been inaccessible due to their expensive price tag. As technology develops, these cars can be produced more quickly and efficiently, meaning more people will be able to have their own eco-friendly vehicle!
