Why Get a Hybrid car?

Why get a Hybrid Car?
Introduction
The world is dying. Every Day it’s dying! Every time you turn the key in a petrol or diesel car you're giving the world a death sentence. How do we stop this? We can’t just replace everyone’s cars it would cost a fortune. Well luckily there is a better solution for a better, brighter future. It’s called a electric and petrol engine. Car brands like Toyota, Ferrari and Porsche/Volkswagen have thought of this. Brands like these what could go wrong? It’s basically the faultless brands making the best cars! Now I’m going to tell you why.
Reason 1 : More Practical
Two words, Toyota Prius. An efficient hybrid car that all the celebrities have. Ever been in a taxi in Wellington? - You've probably been in one then. What is a hybrid and why should I have one? A hybrid is an electric and petrol engine. You can choose to run it one just electric or just petrol or both to go fast like the Porsche 918 Spyder. Who has have trouble with money for petrol? - The answer is everyone. So with a hybrid you can use electric instead, it’s a lot cheaper but when worst comes to worst you will still have a tank of petrol. Is your car 2nd hand? Old, rusted, unsafe. Hybrids are new, hybrids are safe. They're made in this century that means more airbags and other safety features.
Reason 2 : Faster Cars
If you're a petrol head fanatic you're probably asleep because of safety features and blah, blah, blah. Don’t worry because the future of speed isn't going to go downhill it’s going to go uphill. The best example is the new 2014, Porsche 918 Spyder. This is a car with an engine that’s like the Prius but got 279 horsepower! It’s broken records and the electric and the petrol makes it go fast. This is because of the electric turbo charger. So this is a car that is more eco - friendly and faster. Ferrari released one like the Porsche 918 Spyder. After Porsche and Ferrari’s success what’s stopping, Maserati, Lamborghini, Aston Martin or even Alfa Romeo to do the same and possibly better!
Reason 3 : Better Future
Think of cities like Beijing. There polluted. CO2 everywhere. People wearing face masks because of the bad atmosphere. Want that to happen to Wellington, London, Sydney or even Stuttgart? The answer is no, no one does. Cars are the problem and it could be solved over around 10 years and you will see the difference, breath in the difference. We humans are responsible to so much sea life and birds or even mammals deaths a year because of oil spills and pollution. Having a partly electric car cuts those numbers in half like a hybrid. Its half electric half petrol. Having a hybrid will make fewer needs for oil or petrol.
Conclusion
Luckily I’m not one of those people that hate anyone that owns petrol, my family does you see but what’s stopping us buying one or you? 3 reasons, Practical, Faster, Better Future. Think about this the next time your car needs repairing or you simply need a new one, when you turn the key or open the bonnet. There is more out there than prius’s and get a hybrid for a practical, faster and very importantly a Better Future.

Day 13 - Top Gear being hit by rocks?

You have probably all heard about the Top Gear presenters being ambushed by locals that threw rocks at them. It was pure terror when Top Gear was filming their new special when Clarkson's number plate was EXTREMELY offensive to the locals. It was H982 FKL. Jeremy's Porsche was ruined and they had to stop filming because of dangerous ambushes.


A Top Gear top tip: Read your numberplate before you do a special!

Day 9 - Bond 24

Want to know the latest goss on Bond? On the 11 of July last year it was announced that Daniel Craig is returning as Bond! I think that's good. So I thought what's the car. Should they get an Aston or maybe a Ferrari not a BMW they could get him a Bugatti Veyron even! SO let's decide about what Bond Car he should get. This Poll will go on for 1 Week on the Top and Drop Car Website. Brain storm some ideas on this Padlet:

Day 6 - Best of Bond

Top and Drop Cars' Top 5 Bond Cars


5. Citroen 2CV (For Your Eyes Only, 1981)
I don't know about why I like this. But it's very cool to see a little car defeat all the baddies. This one is Daniel Craig's Favourite and is One of mine too. Some of you will disagree but you know.

 


4. Toyota 2000 GT (You only Live Twice, 1967)
The thing I Love about this car is that when Sean Connery went to do the scene he was too tall so on just 2 weeks Toyota made a soft top version.
3. Aston Martin DBS V12 (Casino Royal 2006)
This car was too heavy to flip so they put concrete in the tyres and flipped a world record of 9 times


2. Lotus Esprit (The spy who loved me) 
The People at Lotus wanted there car in a James Bond Film so they parked a Lotus Esprit outside the James Bond Producers office and they taped every bit of branding up and the esprit wasn't in production yet. The producers came out and were amazed and the chap from Lotus got in the Car and just drove away. The Lotus was a model in the movie when it was a submarine and they were tablets that made the bubbles. The Lotus sold for 1 million dollars last year.
1. Aston Martin DB5 (GoldFinger, Thunderball, Skyfall)
This is the ultimate bond car. I have talked about it a lot on Top and Drop cars but here I go again.
I talked about it in Goldfinger so I'll talk about it in ThunderBalll. Sadly in ThunderBall it sucked. The Ferrai was a modern car of the time and it was somehow the same speed as the DB5. But anyway in Skyfall it was the end but here's the clip...




I hope you enjoyed this special so see you tomorrow!

Day 4 - Top Gear

Top Gear. Is the BEST I repeat THE BEST show on television EVER!Top Gear is a 'factual' -(Yeah Right) BBC programme. It has been going since 2002 and had 2 presenters but James May (Captain Slow) was introduced in 2003 (3rd Season) My favourite presenter is Jeremy Clarkson because he says POWER a lot. The are very funny and I've been watching it for years. Hampster is very funny also and I can relate to his height issues. The Stig is there racing driver but no one knows who he is until the paparazzi find out!
