Differences Between Hybrid Cars & Regular Cars
In Hybrid vehicle, the gasoline engine is relatively small and helps in emission reduction and increase in
efficiency.
The hybrid can replace power source when the combustion engine is less efficient in generating
power for use.
The power source of Hybrid cars are compressed or liquefied natural gas, electricity, hydrogen gas, solar, wind etc…
In electric car, the gasoline engine does not directly power the engine. Instead it has a generator that provides energy to motor and engine .
Regular Vehicles
Regular cars or gasoline vehicles have single
internal combustion engine that provides power
source to start the vehicle
The combustion engine burns the fuel and produces energy but also releases carbon dioxide to environment as emission.
This emission creates greenhouse effect
and pollutes the environment in different
ways.
There are 2 types of combustion engines found
Gasoline combustion engine Diesel combustion engine
Both combustion engines show
difference in performance but emit the
same amount of hazardous emission.
What are the important differences between regular cars and hybrids
Hybrid cars have better mileage than
regular cars.
Heat emission and smoke level of hybrid
vehicles are normally lower than regular
vehicles
