With more and more electric cars being added to the market, there is bound to be one available in your price range, and you will save money on petrol/diesel whether you decide to go hybrid or 100% electric. 

They are also cheaper to maintain as there tends to be less moving parts, meaning there are fewer parts to replace. Fully electric cars are designed to be as efficient as possible, meaning less servicing. 

Of course going fully electric is the best option for making the world cleaner and greener as they have zero tailpipe emissions, but even going hybrid will lower emissions which in turn reduces greenhouse gases. 

With the demand for electric & hybrid vehicles on the rise, new technologies with even better qualities are being worked on, like the hydrogen fuel cell vehicles that only emit water!
