Top 10 Reasons Why Automakers Should Manufacture
Flexible Fuel Plug-in Hybrids (PHEVs)
- Flexible fuel PHEVs can eliminate gasoline use in the commute of tens of millions of Americans.
- The technology is available now.
- Infrastructure already exists to supply plug-ins with electric fuel, from the power plant to electric sockets at homes and businesses.
- Plug-in technology can be combined with already existing flexible fuel technology to reduce the use of gasoline even more dramatically.
- Flexible fuel PHEVs can lead to significant reductions in greenhouse gases and smog-producing air pollutants.
- Flexible fuel PHEVs can enhance national security by cutting dependence on imported oil.
- Flexible fuel PHEVs will bring savings on fuel costs to individuals and businesses.
- Flexible fuel PHEVs are good for American agriculture. (The Plug-In Partners Campaign is endorsed by the American Corn Growers Association and the Soybean Producers of America).
- Consumers can fuel their cars at home and drastically reduce the number of trips to the gas station.
- Flexible fuel PHEVs would help preserve jobs in the American automobile industry if American manufacturers began producing plug-in hybrids.
