hybrid and fuel cell vehicles
The term applies, is that really HEV, which stands for hybrid electric vehicles. These are the most fuel efficient vehicles for most of us.
While the current configuration can be based on the construction of the intent of the manufacturer, they are generally a small (by regular vehicle standards) gasoline engine with an electric motor.
While the gasoline engine has most of the locomotion on the highway speeds, when less fuel is needed, but also available to the additional power that the electric motor can not provide or sustain for long.
The electric battery / motor combination, the car moves in some cases, without the gasoline engine, the idle state at the bus stops, such as light and in the drive-thru, and can assist the gasoline engine, as it pushes the hybrid vehicle on the road. Not only is the saving of fuel while the motor is maintenance of the systems, which usually idling situations, but that means that less pollution is emitted into the air, usually within the limits of our most polluted areas .. . in our cities.
While the vehicles of the vehicle, especially in idling situations, the battery, the electric motor with power is recharged. When braking at slow speed (in the city, stop-and-go), regenerative braking is generally used to the car rather than the brakes themselves. In regenerative braking, the electric motor actually changes is polarity to an electrical generator, which charges the battery. This change of engine-generator creates a reverse torque to slow and stop the vehicle. On the highway speeds, normal braking operation.
At times, the inside of the battery under the DIP level, and during that time, the small gasoline engine automatically to the battery.
Even with hybrids, but there are different types of vehicles to meet the needs of consumers. There are hybrid SUV's, trucks, and small and mid-size sedans like the Toyota Prius, one of the most fuel efficient hybrid vehicles available, on average about 50 MPG. Larger hybrid vehicles, like SUV's and trucks, more to the fuel in a relative sense. The fuel economy of these larger hybrid vehicles tend to roughly equal a gasoline powered sedan.
