A computer that manages how and when to use the electric motor and internal combustion engine in a hybrid vehicle.

A hybrid vehicle design where the internal combustion engine drives a generator to produce electricity, which then powers the electric motor.

A system that uses waste heat from the ICE exhaust to improve efficiency in hybrid vehicles.

A system that recovers kinetic energy during braking and converts it into electrical energy that is stored in the battery.

A machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy, used in hybrid vehicles to provide power to the wheels.

A planetary gear set in hybrid vehicles that allows for power to be 'split' between the electric motor, ICE, and wheels.

A hybrid vehicle with a larger battery capacity that can be recharged by plugging into an external electric power source.

A feature in hybrid and some conventional vehicles that automatically shuts off and restarts the ICE to reduce idle time and save fuel.

The system in hybrid vehicles responsible for controlling the flow and storage of energy.

A type of transmission that can change seamlessly through a continuous range of effective gear ratios, used in some hybrids.

A type of engine that generates mechanical power by burning a fuel-air mixture within the engine cylinders.

The available capacity of a battery expressed as a percentage of its total capacity; important for managing a hybrid's energy.

A high-capacity battery used to store energy for the electric motor in hybrid vehicles.

A hybrid vehicle where the electric motor and internal combustion engine are connected in parallel to jointly power the wheels.
