Is there a hybrid for everyone?
Have hybrids gone mainstream?Today, consumers can find hybrid options for trucks, large SUVs, small SUVs, sedans and hatchbacks. So, is there a hybrid for everyone?
Today, 9 out of 10 of the most fuel efficient vehicles available in America are hybrids according to the government, and some believe that means hybrid vehicles have gone mainstream.
"This list proves that hybrids have gone mainstream," said Bo Saulsbury, who heads up the ratings project from the Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Environmental Sciences Division. "There's now a hybrid for everyone. The 32 hybrid models available in 2010 offer car buyers the choice of an SUV, passenger car, economy or luxury model, from almost every major automobile maker."
Still, hybrid vehicle sales represent only about 3 percent of total US auto sales. Is there really a hybrid for everyone?

I would say that hybrids are not main stream.
The majority of your hybrid owners are that less than 10% group that are very dedicated to reducing their own oil consumption.
Hybrids will become mainstream when the economics work in their favor and all American want them.
