Electric and Hybrid Cars Featured at Detroit Auto Show

Maura Lockwood, Cabot Headline News

Electric and hybrid cars are the focus of the Detroit Auto Show as the world’s automakers unveiled a number of these vehicles, a sign of how much emphasis auto companies are placing on the electrification of vehicles, the New York Times reported.

Among the hybrid gas-electric and battery-powered  vehicles on display are the Nissan Leaf, Commuter Cars’ 39-inch wide Tango, a concept version of Toyota’s Prius called the FT-CH and Honda’s CR-Z coupe.

The focus on electric and hybrid cars is apparently more than just a desire to reduce oil dependency and help the environment. It will also help automakers meet future emission regulations, the Times reported.

The new U.S. standards require automakers’ fleets to achieve 35.5 miles a gallon by 2016, up from 27.5 miles a gallon today, according to the Times.
