How does this kit compare to just buying a new hybrid car?
Hybrid car modifications are the first good fuel economy idea to come out of Detroit for more than two decades. The car manufacturers can more easily offer a hybrid version of any model (they control the computer). The price difference between a regular car and its hybrid equivalent vehicle can be substantial. For example, the Honda Civic EX costs $3,090 more for a combined mileage difference of 13 more miles per gallon for an average of 42 mpg. It is much less than the cost of buying one of the other kits and modifying the vehicle after it has been manufactured. Of course we have a ‘07 Honda Civic that we have modified with our HAFC kit. It currently gets 85 miles per gallon highway and a combined mileage of 59 miles per gallon rather than the 42 mpg of the manufactured hybrid. Our HAFC costs less than half the difference in total to buy and install and is providing more than twice as much additional mileage. It should be easy to see the value of an HAFC upgrade.
