Here's how it works:
* Electric motor: The car uses an electric motor to provide power for acceleration and low-speed driving.
* Gasoline (or diesel) engine: The engine acts as a generator to charge the battery and also provides power for higher speeds.
* Battery: The battery stores the energy generated by the gasoline engine and powers the electric motor.
Hybrid cars seamlessly switch between these two power sources, depending on the driving conditions and the driver's needs. They offer a balance of fuel efficiency and performance.
