Please Stop The Rant Against Hybrid Car Prices

For those people who continually rant against hybrid car prices, please stop already. There are a good number of exceptionally obvious and logical reasons as to why hybrid car prices are the way they are now, yet detractors of the hybrid cars seem to ignore these understandable facts to delve into less evident and very arbitrary reasoning.

That being said, I would try my best to detail why hybrid car prices are deserved.

One obvious reason is new technology pitted against old technology. Are people also that grudging in paying huge bucks for an HDTV, when they can pay remarkably less for a color TV? No of course not, since there's a big difference between the two. Why treat hybrid car prices as different? Why do detractors see hybrid cars the same way as conventional fuel running vehicles? In this scenario, people are paying for a relatively new and potentially better technology. If there is a due to be paid, it's the car manufacturers who laboriously toiled for a better solution with regards to our standard of living.

Another reason is the cost of manufacturing. Hybrid car prices are greatly affected by these facets, and the differences again are palpable. It's already a standard among hybrid cars, that there is always a dashboard display that allows the driver the check his mileage and fuel economy, which I am fairly positive, is not as widespread on other conventional car designs. Due to the integration of an electric motor into the gasoline engine structure, plus a specialized battery and a generator, and a more complicated and radically different transmission, it demands yet another levy to the price tag. Would people see this increase in payment as reasonable? Of course they should, since again they are buying new technology.

There are people like me who see things that deserve merit. And people like me respond well to these things, we pay for the product if we like it, and hope that they will improve the ones we had. Mutual support such as this can go a long way.

There are also other people who are willing to pay a slighter higher price tag so they could have the very best of what their money has to offer. And I'd rather have these people support something that can help, if only slightly, the existing problems of our country.

So please stop these criticisms about hybrid car prices already. Such actions can do nothing but only undermine the progress of an otherwise marvelous automobile idea. Nobody wants to get stuck to sucking petroleum.
