Best Answer

Exotic materials are needed to make the car. Ex. Car battery requires exotic metals. These metals are shipped from all over the world thus creating emissions.

Some other drawbacks would be, little torque limiting the towing capaciry. Not the greatest hiway milage. And finding shops that work on them. My shop is one of only a handful of non dealerships that regularly work on them.

Aside from that, there are a great deal more pro then cons I`d say.

What is bad about hybrid cars?

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).
