How it Works: Regenerative Braking: Electric motor cause resistance causing the wheels to slow down. As a result the energy from the wheels turns the motor which acts as a generator. This normally wasted energy then turns into electricity; which is stored in the battery until it is needed Electric Motor Drive/Assist: This provides additional power to help the engine in accelerating, hill climbing, and passing. Smaller, more efficient engine. Automatic Start/Shutoff: This allows for the engine to shut off when the car stops, and the to restart when the car begins to move again.

Clean energy Reliable and comfortable Perform equally as well as normal gas powered cars Mileage Less greenhouse gas emissions Higher cost Lower acceleration Advantages:Disadvantages:

Impacts on Environment Less carbon dioxide emissions Conserves more gasoline Popularity Replace normal gasoline powered cars
