I'm looking for a new Hybrid but I don't know which motor I like the internal combustion engine that drives an electric generator that powers an electric motor or a full electric car. Any suggestions?
Well the prius is the classic hybrid that most people think about but these days most major companies have some type of hybrid available.
The Prius is the hybrid that runs on full electric. I was thinking about, but it just goes so slow. I need speed.
Well unfortunately that's the sacrifice that you make with a lot of electric vehicles. They are way more fuel efficient but don't have the same power that sports cars have.
fuel efficient gasoline-powered car available in the US without plug-in capability, following the Hyundai Ioniq "Blue".
The Prius first went on sale in Japan and other countries in 1997, and was available at all four Toyota Japan dealership chains, making it the first mass-produced hybrid vehicle. It was subsequently introduced worldwide in 2000. The Prius is sold in over 90 markets, with Japan and the United States being its largest markets. Global cumulative Prius liftback sales reached the milestone 1 million vehicle
Range extender (vehicle)
A range extender vehicle is a battery electric vehicle that includes an auxiliary power unit (APU) known as a 'range extender'. The range extender drives an electric generator which charges a battery which supplies the vehicle's electric motor with electricity. This arrangement is known as a series hybrid drivetrain. The most commonly used range extenders are internal combustion engines, but fuel-cells or other engine types can be used.
Range extender vehicles are also referred to as extended-range electric vehicles
