  1. Fuel economy in hybrid cars is higher than that in gas-powered cars, and it's not just because of the nature of the fuel used. In diesel & petrol cars, vehicle braking causes more fuel to be used. This is because the car needs to slow down rapidly to a certain speed, which takes up fuel.

    Contrast this to hybrid cars where, instead of consuming energy, vehicle braking actually creates more energy. This is because hybrid cars use a process called regenerative braking which saves energy and increases fuel economy.
