ON HYBRID CAR

KEY FEATURE OF HYBRIDE CAR

Hybrids achieve improved efficiencies using several approaches: Employ regenerative braking to recover energied Downsize or rightsize the engine or primary power source ontrol the engine or primary power source to operate more efficiently and!or work more often in a more efficient range "ther vehicle modifications applied to hybrids like aerodynamic improvements# low rolling resistance tires can be applied to $s too

WHAT IS A HYBRID?
%he dictionary defines a hybrid as something of mi&ed origin ' hybrid vehicle is one that combines a smaller-than-normal internal combustion gasoline engine with the electric motor of an electric-powered vehicle

HOW DO HYBRID CARS WORK?

' hybrid car is a passenger vehicle that is driven by a hybrid engine# which is an engine that combines two or more sources of power# generally gasoline and electricity %here are two types of gasoline-electric hybrids: ( )arallel hybrid ( *eries hybrid

HOW DO HYBRID CARS WORK?

+oth use gasoline-electric hybrid technology# but in radically different ways +oth have small gasoline engines +oth produce much less pollution than standard gasoline cars +oth produce much less power , generally between -.-/.hp 0the average gasoline engine produces double that1

HOW DO HYBRID CARS WORK?

+oth are constructed of ultra lightweight materials like carbon fiber or aluminum to overcome the power gap +oth are generally designed to be more aerodynamic than most cars# allowing them to slice through the air instead of pushing it out of the way

HOW DO HYBRID CARS WORK?

+oth use a process called regenerative braking to store the kinetic energy generated by brake use in the batteries# which in turn will power the electric motor +oth use electric power at starts and stops# low speeds 0generally below 23mph1 +oth use the gasoline engine at cruising or highway speeds

HOW PARALLEL HYBRID CARS WORK

4asoline engine and electric motor work together to move the car forward

HOW SERIES HYBRID CARS WORK

4asoline engine either directly powers an electric motor that powers the vehicle# or charges batteries that will power the battery

Mild Hybrid: 5e6uires at least some gasoline to power the transmission Stop-Start Hybrids: 7se electric power only during vehicle deceleration while idling or

HOW TO IDENTIFY A HYBRID VEHICLE

Quickest and easiest way for emergency responders: All hybrid vehicles have badge plates located on the sides and/or rear of the vehicle

HIGH VOLTAGE LINES
Avoid cutting high-voltage wires during vehicle rescue. MOST hybrids high voltage lines run closer to the center o! the vehicle and down toward the rear" where the battery is located. High voltage lines are wrapped in orange loom.
