Consumer Reports recently conducted a study to measure EMF levels in the hybrid cars in its test fleet, taking readings from five hybrids and eight conventional vehicles. The study found the highest EMF levels in the Chevrolet Cobalt, a conventional non-hybrid small sedan, but the levels were still far below the levels of EMF emitted by the Earth’s own magnetic field. To conduct its measurements, the Consumer Reports testers used a three-axis ELF/Magnetic Field meter that gave readings in milligaus units, the commonly accepted measure for magnetic fields.Read more about the study.
