Petrol powered cars are a common commodity on the roads alongside its diesel and hybrid counterparts.
Whether it's fossil fuel or electric power each method of powering a vehicle has its own distinct advantages such as fuel consumption and running costs but also largely depends on the type of lifestyle you lead.
