The electric motor assists the engine during acceleration but cannot propel the car independently.
At its core, a hybrid car operates by intelligently switching between its two power sources—the electric motor and the engine—to maximize efficiency, particularly at low speeds or during acceleration.
Used primarily for startup and low-speed driving, reducing fuel consumption in city traffic.
Engages at higher speeds or when maximum power is needed.
