Mercedes proved that hybrid engines are more environmentally friendly than petrol
With the advent of hybrid and electric vehicles is ongoing heated debate about their effectiveness and real sustainability. Mercedes sent its hybrid E350e in the bodies of technical supervision of Germany to prove that in the long run, the hybrid engine is more environmentally friendly petrol.
E350e spends 2.1 liters of gasoline per 100 kilometers. It is almost 2 times less than the baseline model, E220d, which spends 3.9 liters per 100 kilometers, respectively, the hybrid emit just 49 grams of carbon dioxide per kilometer, which is almost 2 times less than E220d. In this E350e can travel on a single battery charge up to 33 kilometers, so it can move around the city, do not produce harmful emissions. In E350e 65 kW (88 HP) motor connected to a small four-cylinder petrol engine that outputs 210 kW (286 HP) of power. That is quite a powerful car, which is comfortable to use both in the city and on the highway.
However, the fact that hybrids emit less carbon dioxide, rarely challenged, critics typically focus on the fact that the production of electricity in CHP plants is allocated a lot of CO2, making its apparent eco-friendliness of hybrids. However, independent tests have shown that even when powered by traditional energy sources, E350e emit 44% less carbon dioxide than its petrol-powered counterpart, the E350 CGI. In addition, these indicators can be improved by 63 percent if the electricity is produced using renewable energy sources.
Therefore, Mercedes has proven that hybrids are really more environmentally friendly than petrol engines. published
