Soaring petrol prices mean Hybrids now make even more economic sense.

Website thegreencarwebsite has found that an average of £500 per anum can be saved through upgrading to a Hybrid.

The results state motorists that travel 10,000 miles a year can save the amount due to the soaring price of petrol.

So whilst the price of such a car may have previously been putting you off, perhaps the revelation that buying one would make economic as well as environmental sense could encourage you to test drive a brand new hybrid!
