The 2011 Hybrid Cars aren't electric. They are running on gas, but they are more efficient because they get more miles per gallon. So it takes less gas to get you further away.
No, hybrid and electric vehicles work two different ways. Hybrid uses fuel and electric, while the electric cars run on electricity alone. I recommend hybrid as I feel they are more efficient.
The following article I am including is primarily directed to the question at hand. It is devoted to hybrid vehicles and how they work. The article can be found at http://vehicle.ezinemark.com/hybrid-cars-what-makes-them-work-31f0047eca4.html
Hybrid vehicles run on gas and electricity working together. This will save on gas, making your vehicle more environmentally sound. In theory you would save about half on gas.
They work on different type of energy:petrol and electricity,or petrol and hydrogen. in general the cars that have hybrid Engins stars using petrol when the other type of energy runs out or when they are moving faster than 60km/h
Hybrid cars work by utilizing multiple power train systems to power the car while minimizing fuel consumption. The safer the car is for the environment, the higher is MPG will be.
there is no such thing as "hybrid electricity" per se. electricity is just electricity and that's it. a hybrid vehicle uses both electrical and some other form of power to work.... in a hybrid car, both internal combustion and electrical power are used. most commonly, the small gas engine is just a generator that generates power for the vehicle's batteries like in a Toyota prius. some hybrid vehicles have both the power to run off of the gas generator and a source of electricity, like a home electrical plug. there are also many other types of hybrid vehicles both as concepts and in production. -R.

http://www.howstuffworks.com/hybrid-car.htm is a website which offers a comprehensive explanation of how hybrid vehicles work. The site is well organized, and contains a myriad of photos and diagrams to help explain difficult concepts.

no the subway cars use electricity to run
Nothing, they just have a second power system, usually electric.
Small hybrid cars are a great option for eco-friendly urban drivers. They are easier to maneuver and park in urban spaces. Like other hybrid cars, small hybrids save money because you use less gas in stop and go traffic. You can use a small hybrid car to run errands and drive to work. Drive your bigger when you need the room for passengers or to haul large items.
