Do Hybrid Car Live up to Our Expectations Based on the Catchy Promotional Promises Made by the Manufactures

Research proposal

1. Focusing question: Do hybrid car live up to our expectations based on the catchy promotional promises made by the manufactures.

2. Primary purpose

Explore: What is the mileage rating of hybrid cars verses gasoline cars? What is the average price of hybrid cars verses gasoline cars? What are the economical and environmental effects of hybrid cars verses gasoline cars? Can hybrid cars produce as much horsepower as gasoline cars?

Argue: My tentative thesis is; hybrid cars are claimed to be a much more efficient economical alternative to the normal gasoline-powered cars.

Analyze: I will be testing the theory that a hybrid car is more efficient than a normal gasoline-powered car.

3. A few assumptions I have about hybrid cars is that they get better gas mileage than gasoline cars. Additionally I have assumed that hybrid cars are more expensive than gasoline powered cars and that gasoline cars are more visually appealing than hybrid cars. The only personal experience I have on the subject is tat I have driven a hybrid Toyota Prius and it didn't seem to have much horsepower.Research proposal
