Second. If it was a an actual electric car that you have to plug in, yes the electricity is likely coming from fossil fuels. However, electricity generation is more efficient at the plant AND they have much better pollution controls.

Actually, I do understand how they work, thank you. Hybrids use a battery pack and a motor, along with an engine. This allows the fuel driven engine to be aided by the motor. But guess whats providing the juice to those batteries. That same fossil fuel engine that giving you the bulk of your power. So which part of my post doesn't make sense given the nature of hybrids?
God I love engineering school for this stuff...
And I spent a summer in KC, the heat was pretty brutal, I still don't use my AC. I just don't like them.
