Car Warranties for Hybrid Vehicles
Posted on October 16th, 2008 by Warranty Direct
A hybrid car refers to a vehicle whose powertrain combines aspects of different technologies (i.e. gasoline and electric) for better efficiency and reduced emissions.
Vehicle choices that merge two or more sources of power are identified as hybrid vehicles. The most familiar is the electric hybrid, which melds a gasoline engine with an electric setup (electric motor, charging system, and a battery/storage system).
The two main types of hybrids on the market now are called “series” or “parallel” hybrids. Series hybrids are also referred to as “mild” or “partial” hybrids, while parallel hybrids are often called “full” hybrids.
