Automobile This diagram displays the amount of Hybrid-Electric vehicle sales within the past two decades. This information is provided by the U.S. Department of Energy.

The growth in popularity of hybrid cars is apparent due to the increased availability of models that have hybrid features and the evident savings that an owner can achieve from owning a hybrid.7 Practical vehicles for Green Apples’ target market are the Toyota Prius C (costs less than $20k), the Ford Escape (fits the whole family), and the Ford Fusion Hybrid (less than $30k and seats five). Reducing the carbon footprint that their “daily driver” produces allows consumers to feel at ease while they use their vehicle every day.
