How do hybrid vehicles work?

Hybrid vehicles have been increasingly popular due to its fuel efficiency and lower carbon emissions. Car makes like Toyota, Honda, Chevrolet, and more offer different hybrid vehicles that many drivers enjoy. Their vehicles are well known for its dependability and excellent savings in gas. They are also popular for drivers who are interested in driving an electric vehicle, but are concerned about the limited range they may have. Hybrid vehicles have both an internal combustion engine and a battery powered electric motor. There is no need to plug in your hybrid vehicle. The batteries are charged by regenerative braking systems and the engine. The electric motor provides more power and allows the vehicle to run solely on electric power at slow speeds. This allows hybrid vehicles to have smaller engines and be more fuel efficient compared to just internal combustion engine vehicles.

• Mild hybrids

This hybrid system primarily relies on the internal combustion engine. The electric motor is only designed to assist with idling, coasting, and braking. The two power sources cannot be used interdependently. Some Mercedes, Audi, and Honda vehicles use this technology in their hybrid cars.

• Full hybrids

This hybrid system relies on a much larger electric motor system. The system switches between the two power sources to ensure the most reliable and highest fuel savings. Hybrid vehicles like the Toyota Prius use this system.

• Plug-in hybrids

The plug-in hybrid has an additional battery that can be charged and give more pure electric range to your vehicle. The vehicle switches back to the regular full hybrid system if the battery is depleted. Some plug-in hybrid vehicles include the Chevrolet Volt and the Toyota Prius Prime.
