About this course
Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs) use both an internal combustion engine and an electric motor for power.
The electric motor assists the engine, improving fuel efficiency and reducing emissions.
HEVs do not need external charging as the battery charges through regenerative braking and the engine.
They automatically switch between electric mode, engine mode, or both based on driving conditions.
HEVs are more eco-friendly than traditional petrol or diesel vehicles.
They are ideal for city driving where frequent stops allow regenerative braking to work efficiently.
Popular HEVs include the Toyota Prius, Honda Insight, and Hyundai Ioniq.
They offer better mileage and lower running costs over time.
HEVs are a transitional technology between conventional vehicles and fully electric ones.
As awareness grows, HEVs are becoming a popular choice for sustainable transportation.
