The data from the Power Information Network (PIN) has revealed that in May this year, sales of hybrids made up for 3.4% of all new vehicles sold in US, the highest monthly sales percentage ever.

From January through June 3, 2007, hybrid sales had a share of 2.8% in total new vehicles sold. According to RNCOS report “Hybrid Cars Market Outlook”, sales of hybrid cars in US crossed 254,500 in 2006, just 1.9% of total vehicle sales. But as the US market is recognized as the one with long-term growth potential, it is expected to sell 1.68 Million hybrid cars by 2012.

High prices of fuel have been cited as the reason why customers are giving a thought to hybrids that run on a mixture of gasoline and electric power to maximize the fuel efficiency. The other reason is that gas-electric technology is there in the market for many years, so it is more recognizable to the customers.

Hybrids still account for a minute in the massive auto market of US but this seems to be changing. Frank Downing Jr., President, Towne Automotive Group, says optimistically, “I think it will continue to grow. I think any kind of alternative situation to gas and anything to improve [fuel] economy will continue to grow”, as reported by THE BUFFALO NEWS on June 17, 2007.
