Hybrid vehicle batteries Will they get long lasting enough?
The batteries in hybrid cars are the energy storage device for the electric motors. In hybrid cars, the electric motor is able to draw power from the batteries as well as put energy into them. This means that when the electric motor is running, it can continually recharge the batteries inside the hybrid car.As battery technology improves so will the distance and serviceability of hybrids. When do you think hybrid vehicles will be common place?

No battery lasts forever, even advanced rechargeables like those in hybrid cars. After a certain amount of electron traffic in and out of its cells, a battery loses its ability to hold enough charge and is ready for the smelter (or for a less demanding application than a car). But the question remains: How long will it last? Sadly, there is no perfect answer, just as there is no way to say exactly how long your transmission will last. Quite a bit of cynicism and anxiety hovers around the issue of hybrid battery life, but is it justified?
