INTRODUCTION
The need of HYBRID VEHICLES is very high on nowadays by the cause we can
decrease the emissions and increase the fuel efficiency at the same time. By
making these can have a good riding experience and good echo friendly
nature to us and to the world by the 2 power resources of electricity and
heat . And we believe it can change the shape of the future.

BACKGROUND AND LITERATURE REVIEW
HEVs offer better fuel efficiency over ICE-based Vehicles and generally work
in charge-sustaining (CS) Mode where the state of charge (SOC) of battery
is maintained throughout the trip. The issue with CS mode is that Its
charging efficiency relies mainly on regenerative braking and gasoline, so
plug-in HEVs (PHEVs) were conceptualized as a possible solution. Unlike
HEVs, PHEVs Have the additional facility to be charged externally Through
power outlets. Most of the power in a PHEV is Derived from an electric
motor (EM) which acts as a primary source, while ICE acts as a backup. As
the battery SOC reaches a particular threshold, the PHEV behaves like A
regular HEV, and the ICE kicks in and acts as a primary Power source. The
PHEVs mainly work in charge depletion (CD) mode where SOC is depleted
up to a threshold level. PHEVs extend the all-electric range, improve local
air Quality and also may have grid connection capability.

CONFIGURATION
According to the design of the power flow from the sources of energy,
HEV’s configurations can be classified as hybrid and parallel hybrid (Chau and
Wong, 2002; Gazelle and Scarlett, 2007). The power flow in the series HEV is
passed down to the transmission over a single path (electrical path); whereas
parallel HEVs allow power flow through two paths (electrical and mechanical
path) from the energy sources to the transmission (Husain, 2010).
Different Types

1. SERIES CONFIGURATION
2. PARALLEL CONFIGURATION
The parallel HEV allows both the electric motor and ICE to deliver
power in parallel to drive the vehicle, that is, both the engine and the electric
motor are able to work independently or cooperatively to provide traction.
Different from the series HEV, the engine is mechanically connected to the
driving wheels via a gearbox, while the electric motor is used to support the
engine during accelerations. Depending on the power of the motor, it could
also be used as the sole power source of the vehicle while idling and during
start-ups. The engine used in the parallel HEV configuration is usually bigger
than those used in the series configuration, while the electric motor is
comparatively smaller and less powerful (Fig. 2.4). Parallel HEVs come in two
sub configurations: the pretransmission parallel and the post transmission
parallel.

STUDY AND WORKING
8
Hybrid engines aim to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions by
utilizing the electric motor during low-speed or stop-and go driving, while the
internal combustion engine is employed for higher speeds and heavy loads.
This combination allows hybrid vehicles to achieve better gas mileage and
reduce their environmental impact compared to traditional vehicles with only
internal combustion engines.

MAIN COMPONENTS
10
Regenerative Braking: Hybrid
vehicles use regenerative braking to
capture and store energy that is
typically lost as heat during braking.
This energy is converted into
electricity and used to recharge the
battery.

FEESABILITY
2. Fuel Savings: Hybrid vehicles can provide cost savings over time due to
their improved fuel efficiency. However, the actual savings depend on
factors like fuel prices, driving habits, and the price difference between
hybrid and non-hybrid models.
12
5. Government Incentives: In many regions, governments offer incentives
and tax benefits to promote the adoption of hybrid vehicles, further
enhancing their feasibility.
6. Application Specificity: Feasibility can vary depending on the
application. Hybrid engines are commonly used in passenger cars, but
they are also increasingly being adopted in commercial vehicles, such as
buses and trucks, for their potential to reduce fuel consumption and
emissions.
It’s worth noting that the feasibility of hybrid engines may have evolved
since my last update in 2021. As technology continues to advance and
environmental concerns become more critical, hybrid engines are likely
to become even more feasible and attractive for a broader range of
applications. However, the specific feasibility of hybrid engines for your
needs may depend on factors such as your location, driving habits, and
the availability of charging infrastructure.
13
CONCLUSION
The success and acceptance of hybrid engines are closely tied to ongoing
developments in battery technology, government incentives, and a
commitment to reducing the environmental impact of transportation. As a
result, hybrid engines are likely to remain an integral part of the automotive
industry’s efforts to create more sustainable and efficient vehicles. However,
the feasibility of hybrid engines for individual consumers may depend on
factors like their driving habits, local infrastructure, and market availability, so
it’s essential to consider these factors when evaluating the suitability of hybrid
vehicles for specific needs.
