History of hybrid cars in America goes back to the beginning of the automotive revolution, to such car manufacturers as Owen, Woods Motor Vehicle Company, and GM. The first evolution in American hybrid cars started after Ferdinand Porsche introduced the world's first hybrid car, the Lohner-Porsche petrol-electric "Mixte", also known as Mixtewagen. vLohner-Porsche 1902 Mixtewagen
The concept of the hybrid car can be traced back to Ferdinand Porsche, who created the Lohner-Porsche Mixte in 1899, one of the first vehicles to combine an internal combustion engine with electric motors. However, the modern hybrid car gained prominence with the introduction of the Toyota Prius in 1997, which popularized the technology and made it commercially successful. Thus, while Porsche laid the groundwork, Toyota is often credited with revolutionizing the hybrid vehicle market.
Ferdinand Porsche developed the world's first gasoline-electric car. In 1901, the Lohner-Porsche Mixte Hybrid was produced. Hybrid cars became available to the general public in the last decade of the twentieth century.

Hybrids were not discovered, they were invented. The first hybrid car invented was a 100-year-old Porsche! The car had in-wheel electric motors and an onboard gas engine to recharge the batteries.
1899 saw the creation of the first electric-gas hybrid car and it was engineered by none other than Porsche Automobil Holding SE founder Ferdinand Porsche. In more recent years, Porsche developed the Cayenne S Hybrid whose electric motor uses energy generated by braking. This model also has a nickel hydride battery which needs no upkeep. Needless to say, the Cayenne S Hybrid has the best mileage of any of the other Cayenne models.
