The Environmentally Friendly Approach To Financing

When you think of green things, you picture money, plants and grass, all of which are tied together in our modern world. Switching to environmentally friendly options is more and more at the forefront of our minds, especially when purchasing new items.

Switching a standard petrol vehicle to a hybrid/electric car has many benefits and not just for the environment, but for your wallet too.

Reduced running costs:

Hybrids consume less fuel than regular cars since the electric motor drives the wheels for part of the time, especially from a standstill or at lower speeds, and helps for the rest of the journey. When the engine fires up, it doesn’t have to work as hard either, as the car is already in motion - further improving fuel economy.

Lower tailpipe emissions:

In Electric Vehicle (EV)-only mode, there are no harmful emissions from the exhaust pipes, making hybrids especially suitable in densely populated areas.

Quieter, smoother operation:

Electric motors are almost completely noiseless and thus quieter, as well as smoother in operation - improving comfort.

Stronger performance:

The addition of an electric motor provides useful additional power and torque, for stronger acceleration and throttle response.
