ECONOMICAL CARS

When people hear the words hybrid car they automatically think they are more economical than some diesel cars.  This is in many ways not completely accurate.  These days people are looking for cheap products, hybrid cars are the opposite, compared to the average diesel car they are much more expensive to buy.  In reality there are cars such as the Seat Ibiza Eco motive that promises a huge 76.4mpg.  As a result of only emitting 99 g/km of emissions the owner has to pay no road tax.  Overall the Seat costs a very reasonable €15,307.  In comparison, a Toyota Prius (hybrid) costs €28685, over €10,000 more than the Seat.  The Prius promises 72.4 mpg compared to the Seat’s 76.4mpg.  This shows that you don’t have to buy a hybrid to have an economical car, instead some of the cheapest cars on the road are also the most economical, giving people no excuse for not being more environmentally friendly.
