How Do Hybrid Engines Work & Why Are They Efficient

Imagine a car that combines a traditional engine's reliability with an electric motor's eco-friendliness. That's exactly what hybrid engines do. These tech wonders are reshaping how we think about driving and fuel efficiency.What Is A Hybrid Engine System At its core, a hybrid engine system is a blend of two worlds: the internal combustion engine (ICE) and the electric motor. Hybrid vehicles typically utilize both a gasoline engine and one or more electric motors. The key here is efficiency and reduced emissions. Depending on the driving conditions, the system switches between the engine and the motor or uses both. This results in better fuel economy and reduced CO2 emissions compared to conventional vehicles. The battery that powers the electric motor gets charged through regenerative braking, converting kinetic energy into electrical energy during braking ... read more
