I would suggest that Hybrids are not better for the enviroment for most people driving habits and car ownership habits. The extra money you spend on getting a Hybrid that most people don't keep their car long enough to recover would be better spent on Carbon offsets. For a few hundred bucks a year you can in theory offset all of your car emisiions.
All Hybrids are are very expensive Carbon Credits.
