Hybrid Cars

A Hybrid-electric vehicle has both a petrol engine and an electric motor. The petrol engine is the power source. The electric motor provides extra power for overtaking, hill-climbing and accelerating from stop. In some cars, it also provides power for low-speed cruising as petrol engines are least efficient in these conditions. When the car is running at a constant speed, the petrol engine provides all the power required. In addition to a fuel tank, the HEV carries a pack of advanced batteries. There is also a processor which decides when to use the motor and engine.

HEVs use regenerative braking. When the driver brakes, the resistance of the motor helps to slow down the car. At the same time, the energy from the wheels turns the electric motor which then functions as a generator, producing electricity to recharge the batteries. When the batteries are low, the petrol engine also drives the generator.

Hybrid cars have automatic start/shutoff. No energy is wasted from idling when the car is stopped.

Hybrid- electric vehicles are more efficient and pollute less than cars with only petrol engines. They do not require special fuel like hydrogen cars and, unlike electric cars, they do not need to be plugged in overnight to recharge the batteries. However, they are heavy because of the weight of the batteries.
