How good are Hybrid cars?
Hybrids have better fuel efficiency and conserve more energy, thus emitting fewer carbon emissions. Less Fossil Fuel Dependency:
Since hybrid vehicles are able to utilize the high voltage battery pack and electric motor(s) for propulsion, they don’t rely on fossil fuels as much as standard gas cars.
What engine does Hybrid car use?
Hybrid electric vehicles are powered by an internal combustion engine and one or more electric motors, which uses energy stored in batteries.
A hybrid electric vehicle cannot be plugged in to charge the battery. Instead, the battery is charged through regenerative braking and by the internal combustion engine.
Are hybrid cars petrol or diesel?
A hybrid vehicle can run on both petrol/diesel and electric power. They are a cheaper alternative to a fully
electric vehicle and provide the benefits of having better fuel economy and reduced impact on the environment than a standard car with only a petrol or diesel motor.
