Hybrid cars could get more diverse

Buying a new hybrid vehicle could be a process with an extra step in the near future, as consumers may need to decide not only on make and model, but on propulsion system, according to a report from tech news site CNET.

A single type of car could be offered to the public in several different variations, including plug-in hybrid and battery-electric. Vice president of marketing and communications at lithium-ion battery maker A123 Systems Andy Chu told the website this offers consumers better choices.

"As these vehicles come online, the fact that you can choose the type that fits your specific needs will lead to greater adoption. Different regions or countries may gravitate to one architecture or another," Chu said.

While most hybrid vehicles still tend to have higher price points than traditional models, the savings in gasoline could add up quickly, making them attractive to budget-conscious consumers looking to buy cars.
