I am gathering up signatures to help Subaru to understand how much demand there is for plug-in hybrids. I and Plug-in America are hoping that through this petition Subaru will understand that there is little risk in producing a plug-in hybrid.
Go to this link Subaru Plug-In Hybrid and sign up. Also, do me a favor and put BLado so I can gauge how many people are responding from this Booman blog. Thank you.
For those of you who don’t know what a plug in hybrid is I have more information below the fold.
Plug in hybrids are simply hybrid cars that get some of their energy from a household plug. You maybe familiar with the Prius hybrid from Toyota? There are companies that will change the Prius so that it can travel on electricity alone for much longer. Calcars, Energy CS, ElectroEnergy and Hymotion all make rebuilds of kits to make a Prius take energy form an ordinary electric outlet. Plug-in hybrids also may be electric vehicles that use a range extending gasoline generator to basically give the car unlimited range. You get a choice between using electricity or gas to keep moving. It is that simple. What we are hoping is that Subaru who is developing a hybrid will make that vehicle a plug-in hybrid. Subaru has been responsive to petitions such as these so we need your help.

OH! And electricity is much much cheaper and cleaner than just using gasoline and electricity is foreign oil free. That is that it is only generated from domestic sources of energy and only 3% of electricity is generated from petroleum oil.
