Dear Toyota

Dear Toyota, December 16, 2009

I am doing a write assignment about alternative fuels for cars. My first smaller topic is hybrids/full electric. What I know about hybrids is that if the road gets bumpy the hybrid switches to gas. On some new hybrids you can manly switch the car to gas or electricity. My favorite hybrids are the Toyota Prius and the Toyota Highlander. I like the Toyota Highlander because of the style and that it is a SUV that gets good mileage. I like the Toyota Prius because I like the design. Also I like the fact that it is quiet. I like the back-up camera and the touch screen. I hope that hybrids will become a very popular way to fuel your car. Some questions I have are… What do you do with the batteries when they no longer work? How long do the batteries last? One question I have for a full electric car is… How do you measure electricity in mpg? For example a Chevy Volt is supposed to get about 200-250 mpg. Please write me back and answer my questions.
