However, these electric cars and plug-in hybrids can be considered unaffordable and time-consuming. Traditional hybrids are what set the wheels in motion for electric cars by combining gas engines and electric motors; saving drivers money by being electrically powered once the gas engine shuts off. But if you are not in a place where you can commit time and effort into charging your car, or if you drive frequently long commutes, conventional hybrid cars might be a better option for you.
How Do Hybrids Work?
While the electric component works as a backup generator, the gas motor can also be used to actually generate enough electricity to charge the hybrid’s battery. When a hybrid car slows down it can save electric power that would’ve otherwise been wasted.
They also save fuel and money at slow speeds; when you drive around downtown, the hybrid can run purely on its electric motor to reserve gas. Gas Motors only need to come into play when more acceleration is required or wanted. By purchasing and driving a hybrid vehicle you’re allowing yourself more miles to cover at higher speeds.
