The Hybrid Car and Gas Prices

Friday, July 10th, 2009

The appeal and popularity of the hybrid car have grown exponentially, especially with the growing worries about rising petrol prices together with worsening air pollution. Here are some useful bits of information that could assist you to learn more about hybrid cars and how they may help you save money on gas and be somewhat protected from rising fuel.

A hybrid car is the type of car, or any other vehicle, that makes use of at least two different fuel sources to make it run. Both fuel sources are used together sometimes to help propel the car more efficiently. There are several different types of hybrid car possible, but the most common hybrid car so far is the gas electric hybrid.

The gas-electric hybrid car, also known as the hybrid electric vehicle or HEV, makes use of a gasoline internal combustion engine or ICE and a separate electric motor to power it. While the ICE makes use of gasoline to make it go, an electric battery is used to store the electrical energy that powers the hybrid car’s electric motor.

The HEV usually has a gas engine that is smaller in size and weight than the conventional one used in standard gas powered cars. Use of more advanced technology makes this possible and allows the HEV to have better running efficiency as well as substantially reduced polluting emissions.

Apart from the petrol engine, the hybrid electric car also has a special electric motor built in that not only produces added power to the car but also acts as a generator when it is not being used. The electric motor acts as a generator, in situations when it is not being used to drive the hybrid car, to help charge the battery for additional efficiency.

In a usual HEV set up, the car uses its electric motor when being driven at very low speeds, say, in traffic jams. The gasoline engine acts as a secondary power source when the HEV requires much more power, such as when climbing a hill. The petrol engine also compensates the electric motor with power whenever the car needs it in order to go faster such as when overtaking. The gas and the electric motor can also work together at certain cases when needed.

Since the hybrid electric car uses both an electric motor as well as a gas motor, a substantial improvement in car mileage is achieved. A hybrid electric vehicle or HEV can run longer distances using the same amount of petrol compared to a conventional petrol powered car.

Whenever the electric motor is being used, gas consumption is reduced. This results in less gas being used when running the same distance as a traditional petrol powered vehicle. And because the hybrid electric car has a smaller gas engine, the hybrid car also runs more efficiently because of less engine weight compared to a conventional car’s engine.

The moving components of the hybrid car engine are also lighter and so need less energy to move. The resulting efficiency makes the hybrid electric car quite a great option for people concerned with higher gas prices. Using a hybrid car can help drivers save a large amount of gas when traveling. On top of that, using the hybrid car can also help in reducing polluting emissions by using less gas while driving.

Apart from the gas engine, the hybrid electric car also has a specially designed electric motor built in that not only provides added power to the car but also acts as a generator when not being used.

Whenever the electric motor is being employed, gas consumption is reduced. This has the result of quite a bit less petrol being used when going the same distance as a traditional petrol powered vehicle. And since the hybrid electric car has a smaller, lighter gas engine, the hybrid car also runs more efficiently because of less engine weight compared to a conventional car’s heavier engine.

The working parts of the hybrid car engine are also smaller and so need less energy to move. The resulting efficiency makes the hybrid electric car quite a great option for people concerned with higher petrol prices. Using a hybrid car can help drivers save a substantial amount of petrol when traveling. Not only that, using the hybrid car can also help in reducing polluting emissions by using less gas while driving.
