Hybrideajoneuvo refers to a hybrid vehicle. This type of vehicle combines a conventional internal combustion engine with an electric motor, allowing it to run on either power source or both simultaneously. The primary goal of a hybrid vehicle is to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions compared to traditional gasoline-powered cars.

There are several types of hybrid powertrains. A parallel hybrid system allows both the engine and electric motor to power the wheels independently or together. A series hybrid system uses the internal combustion engine solely as a generator to charge the battery or power the electric motor, which in turn drives the wheels. A plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) has a larger battery pack than a standard hybrid, which can be recharged by plugging into an external power source, allowing for a significant electric-only driving range before the gasoline engine needs to engage.

Hybrid technology offers several advantages. The regenerative braking system captures energy that would normally be lost as heat during braking and converts it into electrical energy to recharge the battery. This stored energy can then be used to assist the electric motor, further enhancing fuel economy. Additionally, hybrid vehicles often feature an automatic start-stop system that shuts off the gasoline engine when the vehicle is stopped, such as at traffic lights, and restarts it when the driver accelerates.

While hybrid vehicles are generally more fuel-efficient and produce fewer emissions than their gasoline-only counterparts, they typically come with a higher initial purchase price. The complexity of the powertrain can also lead to potentially higher repair costs, although the reliability of modern hybrid systems has improved significantly over time.
