There is gas being saved, but there is only 2 engines and they can tend to break down faster than most cars. This costs money to fix, and repairs can be expensive. Batteries can also be a problem. Their life expectancy is 3-5 years, and can cost as much as $4000 to replace. There is some effects from making the batteries, as they have to store the energy as well as obtain it. This can be bad for the environment, even though this is just making the batteries. It also effects how much gas mileage the Hybrid actually has, as there have been reports of some cars not getting the same mileage as promised (for example, a car got 30 MPG instead of 50 MPG).
