hybrid vehicle fact

The hybrid is a vehicle that has both a gasoline engine and an electric motor. The gasoline motor and the electric motor work together. Together they help the wheels of the vehicle move. It is an interesting exchange, with the gasoline motor instantly shutting off when the car is not in motion. Although it seems that the driver would notice this process, it goes undetected by the driver. The motors are virtually silent, disallowing the driver to be aware of what exactly is taking place under the hood. By using the energy supplied by the electric motor, the car uses less fuel than a normal car model. Along with the lower fuel usage, the hybrid vehicle also emits less pollution.
