Brezine in the year 1769 invented the first self-powered vehicle. As the time kept on going, there were many modifications in the mechanism of hybrid cars. The modern automobiles are meeting the current demands or requirements of the global world because they are in possession of latest technology.

A vehicle, which is moved by two or more than two unique power sources, is called a hybrid vehicle. The word mostly refers to hybrid electric vehicles, which are a combination of an internal combustion engine, and one, or more electric devices.

All the important features of hybrid cars to be known are the strong power functions like on-board, or out-board rechargeable energy storage system (RESS), gasoline, or diesel fuel Hydrogen, Compressed air Liquid nitrogen, human powered e.g. pedalling or rowing Wind electricity, compressed, or Liquid natural gas, and Solar Waste heat from internal combustion engine. In order to increase the vehicle propulsion, this can be converted to steam, or electricity (e.g. via Sterling engine, or Thermo generator). For supplemental system (for example cooling for cool-trucks,) Coal, wood, bio char, and for other solid combustibles electromagnetic fields, the extra power can be used.

If we compare the hybrid vehicle with conventional internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs), the hybrid cars originally contains huge fuel economy, and fewer emissions. The three elements of a typical hybrid design cause these savings.

1. For greater power needs, hybrid cars rely on both, the engine and the electric motors, and these result in a little engine, sized more for normal usage rather than peak power usage. The advantage of a smaller engine is that it can give less internal losses, and lower weight.

1. Hybrid cars have to depend upon both the engine, and the electric motor for greater power needs, which results in a little engine size, more for normal usage rather than power peak usage. Whereas a smaller engine can give less internal losses and weight.

2. Hybrid cars perform much better commonly when they are at halt, and go terrific, as they have unique battery storage capacity to store, and reuse recaptured energy.

3. In the process of recapturing big amounts of energy during braking process, a lot is wasted as heat. Thus the speed of the vehicle is reduced by regenerative breaking, by converting some of its kinetic energy into electric battery, depending upon the power rating of the motor

It clearly refers to a hybrid electric vehicle, when we talk about the term hybrid vehicle. The AHS2 (Chevrolet Tahoe, GMC Yukon, Chevrolet Silverado, Cadillac Escalade, and the Saturn Vue), Toyota Prius, Toyota Camry Hybrid, Ford Escape Hybrid, Toyota Highlander Hybrid, Honda Insight, Honda Civic Hybrid and others includes such vehicles.

Therefore, hybrid cars are the cars of the future. There is a wonderful increase in the popularity and demand of hybrid cars.
