Hybrid Cars

1
A hybrid vehicle is a vehicle that uses two
different sources of energy.
2
For example a car that uses mostly electricity,
but also uses gas as a power up and/or to charge
the electric motor in the vehicle is a hybrid.
3
I would like to share what a hybrid vehicle is,
and how society can benefit from their use today
which includes the environmental benefit that a
number of drivers enjoy today.

Now the qu??t??n ?r???? as to why they are needed.
5
The ?n?w?r ?? ??m?l?, the average person d??? not
need the power of a V8, h? or ?h? ju?t needs
?n?ugh ??w?r t? r???h their d??t?n?t??n.
6
A hybrid vehicle or one equipped with a V8 ??n
both ????m?l??h th??. The hybrid, however, leaves
a much smaller carbon footprint.

The h?br?d v?h??l? w?rk? b? u??ng ?l??tr?? ??
w?ll ?? g???l?n? power.
9
Diesel electric vehicles ?r? ?l?? available
today, but there numb?r? ?r? still qu?t? l?w
10
Th? hybrid vehicle w?rk? b? using ?l??tr?? ??w?r
wh?n th? r??u?r?m?nt f?r ?ng?n? power ?? l?w.
11
The b???? ?d?? of hybrid automobiles ?? t? u?? a
?m?ll?r l?ght w??ght engine in conjunction with
an electric source that can ?dd ??m? ?xtr? ??w?r
when needed.
12
As a 1.0 liter ?ng?n? can m?v? a car along at 75
m?h ju?t like a V8, but uses much less fuel in
the process.
13
Th?r? ?r? two m??n t???? ?f g???l?n? h?br?d
vehicles series h?br?d cars and parallel hybrid
??rs.
14
The ??r??? h?br?d car u??? th? g???l?n? ?ng?n? t?
turn a g?n?r?t?r th?t can either ?h?rg? the
batteries or run ?n electric m?t?r, wh?r??? th?
??r?ll?l h?br?d car ??n ??mb?n? the two ??w?r
??ur??? to g?v? m?r? ??w?r, ?r th? ??m? ?m?unt of
??w?r, but with a b?tt?r m?l??g?.
15
Now the qu??t??n arises how the hybrid v?h??l?
??n d?l?v?r these t???? of ??rf?rm?n??? wh?n th??
h?v? such a ?m?ll ?ng?n?.
16
Th?? do so b? using l?ght w??ght materials like
??rb?n f?b?r ??m????t??, l?w-r?ll?ng r????t?n??
tires and ?dv?n??d aerodynamics t? r?du?? dr?g.
17
Hybrids can ?v?n turn th? g???l?n? engine ?ff
when not n??d?d, ?u?h ?? wh?n ?t????ng ?t tr?ff??
lights.
18
S?m? hybrid automobiles only use el??tr?? ??w?r
for low speeds.
19
S?m? hybrid vehicles also u?? regenerative
braking.
20
Regenerative braking d??r????? the speed b?
cutting some ?m?unt ?f engine ??w?r.

Hybrid automobiles have been around for over a
decade now and have proven to not only use less
fuel but to be very reliable as well.
