Have you ever had a hybrid vehicle? It is one that has more than one type of power, such as internal combustion and electric generators
I haven't but I find them interesting. Do they have a larger fuel range than regular cars?
Hybrid vehicle
A hybrid vehicle uses two or more distinct types of power, such as internal combustion engine to drive an electric generator that powers an electric motor, e.g. in diesel-electric trains using diesel engines to drive an electric generator that powers an electric motor, and submarines that use diesels when surfaced and batteries when submerged. Other means to store energy include pressurized fluid in hydraulic hybrids.
The basic principle with hybrid vehicles is that the different motors work better at different speeds; the electric motor is more efficient at
producing torque, or turning power, and the combustion engine is better for maintaining high speed (better than typical electric motor). Switching from one to the other at the proper time while speeding up yields a win-win in terms of energy efficiency, as such that translates into greater fuel efficiency, for example.
Vehicle type.
Vehicle type Two-wheeled and cycle-type vehicles.
Mopeds, electric bicycles, and even electric kick scooters are a simple form of a hybrid, powered by an internal combustion
