A Brief Look at Today's Plug-in Hybrid and Electric Vehicles and the Companies That Are Revolutionizing an Old Industry

LOS ANGELES, CA, Apr 20 (MARKET WIRE) --
Floyd Associates, a privately held consulting firm with operations in
strategic development, investment banking, and mergers & acquisitions,
has published a research report briefly analyzing plug-in hybrid and
electric vehicles that are currently in development or being produced.
The report classifies various types of "clean" vehicles and reviews the
strengths and weaknesses of some of the old and new players in the sector.

The battery capacity that is needed for an all-electric vehicle is
currently very costly. A Deutsche Bank study cites an average of $11,000
of additional cost for an all-electric vehicle compared to a comparable
gasoline powered vehicle. Also due to limitations in current technology
the range for most all-electric vehicles is limited to about 100 miles
and to up to 250 miles for high-end electric vehicles.

Compared to a gasoline powered vehicle a hybrid uses less fuel, has a
smaller carbon footprint, and has a comparable range and performance. Due
to the unpredictability of gas prices and increasing consumer demand for
more fuel efficient vehicles the report projects that the demand for
hybrids shall increase dramatically in the coming years.
