Prices for hybrids have remained constant for some time. Hybrid cars have been unaffected by true market conditions and prices because few car manufactures do not want to risk investing in gas + electric only to have the market go south in a couple of years.
Yesterday I wrote how SUVs and Trucks are increasing in demand the moment gas prices begin to decline. This is certainly bad news for the hybrid price market.
Currently, I cannot accurately tell you if hybrid car prices will decline in the future. If there is a strong demand and more and more people request hybrid cars the manufacturers have no choice but to increase production to meet demand.
We have to remember the car business is one of the most highly competitive businesses in the entire planet. As the market becomes more mature, and people continue to ask for hybrids, manufactures will have to put into production more and more environmentally friendly cars to stay in business.
But until demand for hybrid cars reaches the all-important critical mass, there will always be a premium price for hybrids.
