hybrid

A hybrid vehicle is one that uses two or more distinct types of power, such as submarines that use diesel when surfaced and batteries when submerged. Other means to store energy include pressurized fluid in hydraulic hybrids.
Hybrid powertrains are designed to switch from one power source to another to maximize both fuel efficiency and energy efficiency. In hybrid electric vehicles, for instance, the electric motor is more efficient at producing torque, or turning power, while the combustion engine is better for maintaining high speed. Improved efficiency, lower emissions, and reduced running costs relative to non-hybrid vehicles are three primary benefits of hybridization.

    Hybrid Odometer Not Relevant

    I was recently watching a Utube video from the "I Do Cars" engine tear down expert, and he was disassembling a Prius hybrid engine which failed at 73,000 miles on it. He pointed out the meaningless nature of Odometees in Hybrid cars, as a way of actually knowing how much wear the engine has...
