New Hummer H3E, Probably The Best Hybrid Car in America
13 August 2009 | Green Cars | 3 Comments
In European countries and many countries of Asia we know the most popular hybrid car manufacturers. But despite these statistics, America has its own creations, very effective car models and very popular hybrid models.
One of the most popular cars created in America, I think is Hummer model. Hummer was always a very popular, powerful car but have two major disadvantages: a large amount of fuel consumed and a high level of CO2 emissions (pollute the environment). These two problems have been solved when Hummer H3E model appeared, an improved version of classic model, a hybrid Hummer that consume around 2.4 l/100km.
You may ask how it is possible that a big Hummer to consume only 2,4l/100km… it is possible, because the new Hummer H3E is powered by an electric engine with an onboard power extender. You can run 40km, powered by the electric motor, and then a small gasoline engine, recharge Hummer batteries. Raser Technologies states that H3E model can run 600km before refuelling.
Hummer H3E was presented yesterday at a conference about “alternative energy sources”, in California, where Arnold Schwarzenegger, California governor, said that he is proud of this model, and also said that he was present when this concept was born. Probably, this hybrid model will be the main transportation vehicle in America in the next few years, and certainly one of the best cars worldwide.
