You don’t have to be an environmentalist to love hybrid cars.

The EcoEagles are made up of engineering and business students.

Biodiesel has the highest energy balance of any commercially available fuel, returning 4.5 units of energy for every unit of fossil energy needed to produce it.

Hybrid cars show much lower depreciation rates than standard gasoline cars. They are now and will continue to be in extremely high demand.

There are different types of electric cars. All electric cars use an electric motor. Electric hybrids use a combination of an internal combustion engine and and electric motor to propel the car.

The EcoEagles have presented their work to various engineering conferences and even to NASA employees.

Biodiesel production reduces our dependence on foreign oil from unstable parts of the world, while expanding and diversifying our domestic refinery capacity.

The EcoEagles make their own biodiesel at their biodiesel station located on the Embry-Riddle Daytona Beach campus.

Electric vehicles have been around for over 180 years
