If Toyota has its way, there will be more ways to improve your fuel economy than just driving a
Toyota hybrid around Royersford. At the Los Angeles Auto Show, Toyota will be revealing a concept car that doesn’t use any gasoline at all. This Camry hybrid uses compressed natural gas.
Toyota has long been committed to finding and using more environmentally-friendly fuels and alternate sources of fuels. The revealing of this concept car demonstrates, among other things, Toyota’s intention to use hybrid technology alongside an entire portfolio of alternative fuels.
There are, of course, some disadvantages to using compressed natural gas. First, you’ll get slower acceleration with compressed natural gas than you will with regular gasoline. To address this, the Camry Hybrid concept car launches in electric mode, which should give the vehicle the acceleration it needs. In addition, fuel economy is slightly less with compressed natural gas. However, the fact that there are huge reserves of compressed natural gas in the world suggest that, as oil becomes scares, it may be a viable alternative fuel.
You don't have to go to Los Angeles to find a Toyota hybrid that can save you money at the pump and lessen your carbon footprint. Come check out our selection of Toyota hybrid vehicles today.
