What Is Hybrid Power

A vehicle that can obtain power from at least two types of stored energy in the vehicle:
Consumable fuel or rechargeable energy/energy storage devices.
According to the structural form of the power system, it can be divided into the following three categories:
Series Hybrid Electric Vehicle (SHEV): A hybrid (electric) vehicle whose driving force only comes from an electric motor. The structural feature is that the engine drives the generator to generate electricity, and the electrical energy is transmitted to the electric motor through the motor controller, which drives the car to move. In addition, the power battery can also provide electricity to the electric motor separately to drive the car.
Parallel hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV): A hybrid electric vehicle in which the driving force of the vehicle is supplied simultaneously or separately by an electric motor and engine. The structural feature is that the parallel drive system can use the engine or electric motor as the power source alone, or both can be used as the power source to drive the car.
Hybrid electric vehicle (CHEV): A hybrid electric vehicle with both series and parallel drive modes. The structural feature is that it can work in the series hybrid mode and also in the parallel hybrid mode, taking into account the characteristics of both series and parallel.
(Note: With the development of hybrid electric vehicle technology, its types are not limited to the above, but can also be classified according to other types.)
Those that typically use traditional fuels and are equipped with electric motors/engines to improve low-speed power output and fuel consumption. In the domestic market, the mainstream of hybrid vehicles is gasoline hybrid, while diesel hybrid models are also developing rapidly in the international market.
