Simply Hybrid
Hybrid Car Rental
As to date, an increase of 50% on Hybrid Car Demand has been observed since it entered mainstream market. It’s no surprise how much of an effect they have had on the average driver and consumer but it seems that hybrid is definitely the future of the automobile industry; so much so, in fact, that it’s also not a shock to see Hybrid Car Rental Companies sprouting up here and there.
On the Rise
Long before the introduction of electric hybrid, car rental companies that support environment friendly vehicles have been around already. They were renting out other vehicles that were either purely electric or were using power sources other than the fuel and electric combination as well as the conventional gas-powered cars as well. As soon as hybrid Electric Vehicles were introduced, it was inevitable for these companies to add them to their rosters as well.
Advantage
With the growing popularity of hybrid electric vehicles, it’s just as well that these hybrid car rental agencies do exist. For the consumer, it will be a good opportunity to test out a hybrid before making the decision to purchasing to own one. By renting one out for a week or so, a person will be able to determine if the hybrid electric definitely will do what manufacturers say it will do.
Hybrid Cars can differ in some of the vehicle’s aspects. The concept behind the technology may be the same for all manufacturers but there are a few key differences between hybrid models released by various car companies.
Savings
These hybrid car rental companies also makes touring more convenient for travelers. Travelers who do use hybrid cars will most definitely be spending much less on gas since hybrid electric vehicles can run for much longer on lesser amounts of gas.
In the long run, if this trend remains, hybrid Electric Cars will do much better than their gas-dependent counterparts as far as car rentals are concerned. This also means that car rental agencies that do rent out hybrid vehicles will probably rent them out at even cheaper prices since fuel rates will not be too much of a concern for them.
Maintenance for hybrid cars is also easier because it does not have too many mechanical engine parts under the hood. Since they are simple and get the job done more efficiently and in an eco-friendly way, consumers not only save money, but they end up saving the world from hazardous carbon dioxide emissions as well.
To date, there are only a few listings of hybrid car rental companies but the list is expected to rise with the demand. Perhaps through these hybrid car rental agencies, people will learn to appreciate hybrid vehicles even more which will hopefully lead to their use over gas guzzlers in the city streets and highways.

How can I go about renting a hybrid vehicle?
I’m planning a road trip several mos. from now departing from Denver. I was planning on renting a car. The very first time I rented a car from somewhere, I was put in a hybrid and loved it. Since then, every time I attempt to rent a car somewhere, even if hybrids are advertised on their online site, they never have them at the actual business (and it’s not just a matter of the hybrids being rented out–it’s just false advertising period.). I could call individual rental agencies to find out if they actually have hybrids for rent, but I’m wondering is someone on here has a better suggestion. For example, maybe someone knows of a rental agencies that ONLY has hybrids in their fleet? Or, maybe someone uses a certain rental car agency often, and has had success at renting a hybrid from there.
Give me some suggestions!
The good news is that most of the nationwide car rental agencies have hybrid vehicles for rent. The bad news is that none of them rent ONLY hybrids.
There aren’t enough hybrid vehicles around for that, and the economics goes against it. Hybrids cost more to buy, which means the rental companies have to charge more per day. But since most people do not drive long distances, the gas savings often will not outweigh the additional daily rate.
So, most rental places have few hybrid cars, and you are probably going to need to reserve one specifically for your road trip. There are a couple of Web sites aimed at renters who want to get a hybrid. They do not arrange the rental for you, but they have tips on how to go about doing it. Here are a couple of examples:

In the end, however, you will have to check the car rental places yourself to see if what they have in Denver. Most companies seem to put hybrid vehicles in the same “specialty” class as sports cars. (A quick check of a couple of companies showed they had hybrids mostly in California and Florida, but I am sure there are some with hybrids in Denver as well.)
Some day, most vehicles will be hybrid or electric. For now, I hope this helps. Good luck!!
I’ve come across an excellent resource on how to convert your gas guzzler into a highly efficient Electric Motor vehicle. And the good news is that building Electric Cars isn’t very hard to do. You will need 10 – 12 deep cycle batteries, an electric motor battery charger, controller and (of course) a good set of Electric Car Conversion Motor plans.....
