Hybrid Synergy Drive PDF Guide
When cruising, the engine and motor both drive the wheels: engine power is split between the wheels and an electric generator, which in turn drives the motor. Power allocation is controlled to maximize efficiency. As necessary, the generator also re- charges the battery from surplus engine power.
A hybrid system combines different power sources to maximize each one’s strengths, while compensating for each other’s shortcomings. A gasoline-electric hybrid system, for example, combines an internal combustion engine’s high- speed power with the clean ef?ciency and low-speed torque of an electric motor that never needs to be plugged in.
Ordinary powertrains waste energy at stoplights, during braking, and all other times the engine is not running at optimum speed under ideal load conditions. By reducing energy wastage and apply- ing energy more efficiently, a hybrid system can simultaneously double fuel economy, slash emissions, provide quiet operation and deliver “fun to drive” performance.
