Hybrid
What if our cars were zero emission for most trips plus we could use conventional fuel for long trips - at high speed... Hybrids use a combination of propulsion systems - commonly an electric motor+combustion engine - to get the best of both.

Ferrari used the Geneva Motor Show to unveil a hybrid future that it says will not only make its sports cars more efficient, but also aid their handling and performance.
Pulling the wraps off a lime green version of the 599, fitted with the Prancing Horse's new hybrid powertrain, CEO Luca di Montezemolo joked that you "don't normally see a green Ferrari" on the firm's Geneva stand but that this marked a "new direction."

Up until very recently, whether or not a car is "green" was less important to most British motorists than the actual colour of the paint. However, the most important factor was, and still is, price. BCA - the UK's largest used car seller, has provided proof that motorists are now making the connection between the two by discovering that there is a strong demand for hybrid/electric and LPG powered cars in the used car market. In fact they are selling well above the market price for their petrol and diesel counterparts.
