In this video i will explain you the Difference between Mild Hybrid, Hybrid and Plug-in Hybrid, so at the end of this video you will know everything about this 3 versions.
I donβt know if you notice but at the moment auto industry it’s in a transition period, a transition that want to eliminate the petrol and diesel as a source of energy for cars.
In the last years Automakers made very big efforts and invest milions of dollars to lower the co2 emissions for their cars. They also build new factories and facilities to create new platforms for electric vehicles.
The reason why they are in such a rush is because the governments rise the taxes for every co2 gram that a car emit.
What this mean ?
That simply mean manufacturers will pay 0 taxes if the cars will emit 0 co2. The less co2 emissions the less taxes for manufacturers.
Now that we know the reason of why we see more and more Hybrid cars let’s talk about all 3 versions.
Mild Hybrid System (MHEV)
The cars that are powered with the Mild Hybrid System have an internal combustion engine : diesel or petrol an electric motor and a separate special battery.
Now the difference is that Mild Hybrid System uses a much smaller electric motor (it is more like a starter) and also a smaller battery (between 0.1 and 0.8 kWh).
The electric motor and the battery can not power itself the car.
Without the combustion engine, the car will not move, so the only reason the system is there is to help the internal combustion engine during acceleration and coasting.
Because the combustion engine will be assisted at acceleration you will have also a smoother ride and some extra torque, the engine can sometimes switch off in order to save fuel and reduce co2 emissions. The main benefit and purposes of this system are to reduce Co2 Emissions and save more fuel, also it will give the car some extra power but in a very small amount (maximum 5%).
Hybrid System (HEV)
Now that we know what is Mild Hybrid System letβs go to the Hybrid System (HEV). We start by telling you that Hybrid System uses a bigger battery than the mild-hybrid system and also a much bigger motor or motors.
Yes, you hear well βmotorsβ because some Hybrid cars can have even 2 electric motors combine with the internal combustion engine.
Also, Hybrid cars can be powered only by the electric motor and some of them can reach speeds of 130kmh only in electric mode, here depending on the battery charging status, road conditions and other elements.
Because of the bigger battery and bigger electric motor, the car will have more Horsepower and torque. Also, you will experience more often the smooth and silent ride which you can find all the time in electric cars.
Not only the fuel-saving and fewer co2 emissions are an advantage, but also the internal combustion engine and electric motor will work together to give you the maximum power.
Something to remember about Hybrid System is that Hybrid cars can not be charged, they will change automatically when the car will break, go downhill or it can also be charged by the combustion engine when the car is running.
Plug-in Hybrid System
Plug-in Hybrid cars have a much bigger battery usually between 13 and 18 kwh and the great part is that you can charge the car through a cable, so not only that the battery will be recharged as you drive like the Hybrid system but you can also plug-in the cable in the car and charge it.
When it comes to Charging speed, all Plug-in Hybrid cars can be charged at a normal wall socket that we all have on our homes, of course, the charging time will be much longer than on a special wallbox or a public fast-charging station.
In a Plug-in Hybrid car, you will also have an electric-only range that varies between 25 and 75km depending on the battery size and the car model.
The greater part is that you can have both worlds in a single car. You will have a combustion engine and an electric motor that give you the possibility to feel both experiences.
In the city, you can drive 100% electrically and on the highway at long trips you can use the combustion engine.
Also, Plug-in Hybrid cars will give you a better total range than electric cars or classic ICE cars.
Another big advantage is that Plug-in Hybrid will benefit from better tax incentives, so you will pay fewer yearly taxes.
Depending in which country you are you can benefit from big guvernmental discounts when you are buying the car for the first time.
