Its electric motor is powered by an additional high-voltage battery pack that\u2019s separate from the car\u2019s conventional 12-volt battery.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This battery pack is usually recharged via regenerative braking which is when the kinetic energy from braking is converted into electrical energy and sent to the battery. However, it can also be automatically charged by the engine as you drive or by plugging the car into a wall charging outlet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-22261\" src=\"https:\/\/carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/wp\/shutterstock_407543500.jpg\" alt=\"hybrid cars\" width=\"899\" height=\"599\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/wp\/shutterstock_407543500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/wp\/shutterstock_407543500-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 899px) 100vw, 899px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Depending on the situation, a hybrid car can be propelled exclusively by the gas engine or hybrid motor, or by both at the same time. By using both mills or only the hybrid motor at a time, a hybrid vehicle can improve its fuel efficiency and reduce emissions, which is what makes hybrid cars attractive.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Read More:<\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/item\/what-you-need-to-know-about-car-batteries\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Car Batteries: How to Extend the Lifespan &amp; Prices in Malaysia<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>Here\u2019s a quick fun fact<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: the Toyota Prius was the first series-produced hybrid vehicle introduced in 1997. However, hybrid drive systems are actually much older; the first car that combined a petrol and an electric engine was the \u201cLohner-Porsche Mixte Hybrid\u201d, built by Ferdinand Porsche in 1899. It had a 16-horsepower gasoline engine working together with a generator to provide electricity that charged the battery and turned the wheels. It was actually well-received and over 300 units were produced.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a name=\"b\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Are the Different Types of Hybrid Car Systems?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are three main types of systems that hybrid cars use today which are Parallel, Series, and Series-parallel hybrid systems. Each system delivers power to the wheels differently and is used in different types of hybrid vehicles.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Parallel Hybrid<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is the most common hybrid system used by most brands, whereby the electric motor and the combustion engine are connected to the transmission independently. In stop-and-go traffic, the electric motor provides power while at highway speeds, the internal combustion engine takes over. However, both the engine and electric motor can move the car during harder acceleration.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In a parallel hybrid drivetrain, the battery relies on regenerative braking to recharge the battery as there\u2019s no separate generator to do it. The type of transmission and the size of the combustion engine are the two main driving factors that determine how the car will accelerate, sound, and feel.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Series Hybrid<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this system, the electric motor provides all the thrust, while the combustion engine recharges the battery. There is no physical mechanical connection between the engine and the transmission. This results in a driving experience that is similar to an electric car with a smoother, and more powerful acceleration.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since the engine only generates electricity to charge the battery and assist the electric motor, vehicles with this drivetrain are called range-extended electric vehicles.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Series-parallel or Power-split Hybrid<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A series-parallel hybrid system combines the advantages of both a series and parallel drivetrain. This system typically has a large battery and powerful electric motor that can drive the wheels like in a series hybrid system. Additionally, the engine can be used to both drive the wheels and charge the battery pack.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hybrid cars with this system tend to use the electric motor in stop-and-go traffic and when accelerating from a standstill, and use the combustion engine at highway speeds. Oftentimes, you can also drive a few kilometers using only the electric motor. When necessary, the engine can send power to the generator which will then charge the battery. Toyota is famous for using this drivetrain in their hybrids including the Toyota Prius.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-28834\" src=\"https:\/\/carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/GettyImages-184117270-1.jpg\" alt=\"Xray see through of a hybrid car\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1920\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/GettyImages-184117270-1.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/GettyImages-184117270-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/GettyImages-184117270-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/GettyImages-184117270-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/GettyImages-184117270-1-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/GettyImages-184117270-1-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/GettyImages-184117270-1-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/GettyImages-184117270-1-696x522.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/GettyImages-184117270-1-1068x801.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/GettyImages-184117270-1-1920x1440.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a name=\"c\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What are the Types of Hybrid Cars?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hybrid cars differ according to their levels of electrification and the kind of hybrid system that they use. Here are the common types of hybrid cars you can find in Malaysia.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mild Hybrid (MHEV)<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A mild hybrid car has an electric motor in its drive system but it never works on its own. Instead, the system helps to reduce the burden on the engine by giving it a small boost during acceleration and helping power some of the car\u2019s electrical systems such as the air conditioning.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mild hybrid cars generally have parallel hybrid systems with a 48-volt battery and are recharged by regenerative braking and power from the engine. These cars generally consume up to 15-percent less fuel than conventional petrol cars and include examples like the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/buy-car\/honda\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Honda<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Insight, Honda CR-Z, and the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/buy-car?keywords=Mercedes-Benz%20C%20200\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mercedes-Benz C 200<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Full Hybrid (FHEV)<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This type of car has an electric motor and internal combustion engine that work together or independently to drive the wheels. You can also choose to use the full-electric mode, but it only allows short trips of a few kilometers. Compared to mild hybrids, full hybrid cars use high-voltage traction batteries with several hundred volts that work together with the petrol engine to drive the car.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Full hybrid cars are known for fuel savings of 20 to 50 percent compared to conventional petrol cars. While they can use a parallel or series drivetrain, most modern hybrids use the series-parallel drivetrain for its obvious advantages. Examples of full hybrid cars include the Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid, Honda City RS Hybrid, and Honda HR-V RS Hybrid.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plug-In Hybrid (PHEV)<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A plug-in hybrid adds more power to the conventional hybrid concept with a much larger battery pack. Just like a proper EV, a PHEV can be recharged using an external source \u2013 either from your home or at public charging stations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thanks to the huge amount of energy stored, the plug-in hybrid has an extended all-electric driving range, which can significantly reduce the fuel consumption rate. Most PHEVs are propelled primarily by their electric motor with the engine functioning as a range extender to recharge the batteries. However, some PHEVs can also run with power from the engine. Examples of PHEVs include the Chevrolet Volt, BMW i8, and the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/buy-car?keywords=bmw%20330e\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">BMW 330e<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-28836\" src=\"https:\/\/carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/GettyImages-1354070884-1.jpg\" alt=\"Recharging an EV car\" width=\"2120\" height=\"1414\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/GettyImages-1354070884-1.jpg 2120w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/GettyImages-1354070884-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/GettyImages-1354070884-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/GettyImages-1354070884-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/GettyImages-1354070884-1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/GettyImages-1354070884-1-2048x1366.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/GettyImages-1354070884-1-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/GettyImages-1354070884-1-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/GettyImages-1354070884-1-1068x712.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/GettyImages-1354070884-1-1920x1281.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2120px) 100vw, 2120px\" \/><\/h3>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Micro Hybrid<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A micro hybrid car does not qualify as a proper hybrid car as it is exclusively driven by an engine. The micro hybrid here refers to a start-stop system that shuts off the engine when the car stops in traffic and restarts it when the driver accelerates. It also uses regenerative braking to charge the car\u2019s regular 12V battery. A micro hybrid system generally grants a car up to 10 percent of fuel savings.

Its fuel consumption is rated at 23.2 km\/L which is very economical for a vehicle of this size.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Honda HR-V RS Hybrid (RM140,800)<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-28840 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Honda-HR-V-RS-Hybrid-2-e1664424376865.png\" alt=\"Honda HR-V RS Hybrid\" width=\"1264\" height=\"744\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Honda-HR-V-RS-Hybrid-2-e1664424376865.png 1264w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Honda-HR-V-RS-Hybrid-2-e1664424376865-300x177.png 300w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Honda-HR-V-RS-Hybrid-2-e1664424376865-1024x603.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Honda-HR-V-RS-Hybrid-2-e1664424376865-768x452.png 768w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Honda-HR-V-RS-Hybrid-2-e1664424376865-150x88.png 150w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Honda-HR-V-RS-Hybrid-2-e1664424376865-696x410.png 696w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Honda-HR-V-RS-Hybrid-2-e1664424376865-1068x629.png 1068w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1264px) 100vw, 1264px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/buy-car\/honda\/hr-v\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Honda HR-V<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Hybrid, launched in 2022 utilizes a 1.5L DOHC four-cylinder engine paired with a powerful electric motor which gives the SUV a total output of 215PS and a claimed fuel consumption of 24.4 km\/L.
