According to a survey from J.D. Power, 72 percent of Americans are ready to evaluate the acquisition of a hybrid or electric car. It’s a resonant figure when we think of American car history, but it demonstrates the more rigorous environmental spirit and equally high petrol prices assailing the US.

Even though a hybrid or electric car can cost up to 5000 dollars more than a traditional model, survey participants preferred “cleaner” cars. The same survey, undertaken in 2005, gave a similar result but stopped at figures of 58 percent. Three years ago, petrol had a very different price and market offerings of hybrids or electrics were limited.
