That depends on the system design. Toyota Hybrids are designed to be able to drive a couple miles on a empty gas tank and a full battery charge (with third party modifications that void the warranty this can be extended to about 30 to 50 miles). Honda Hybrids will not move at all unless the gas engine starts first. Its just a different philosophy.

How many miles can a Toyota Hybrid travel with only using the batteries?
Running on battery power alone, you can only expect to drive between 2 and 7 miles; this is due to several factors. The first is that hybrid cars are not designed to run solely on battery power, but in conjunction with a gasoline engine that constantly provides a char
How many liters of gasoline would be saved using the hybrid car instead of the gasoline powered car?
That would depend on what we use as alternatives to hybrid cars. It could be less than 0% or as much as 15%. Many smaller cars get as good, or better mileage than their hybrid alternatives and require far less expensive electronics.
Are hybrid cars diesel?
While it would be possible to build a hybrid car using a diesel engine instead of the gasoline engine, I do not believe any manufacturers are doing it. This may be because of problems with reliably restarting a diesel engine after stopping it that don't happen with gasoline engines, but I'm not certain.
What lifestyle would better benefit from the purchase of an electric car over a hybrid?
Hybrid cars would be better in the long run. Instead of using gasoline and electricity you only use up power you you're light bill will go up. You save more money with a hybrid.
Hybrid Cars Eco Friendly?
Not only are hybrid cars less expensive than normal vehicles but they are more eco friendly. These cars accomplish this by having two energy sources, using a standard combustion engine with an electrical engine. Inside of hybrid cars is a computer system that makes the decision of whether to run on gasoline or electricity. The less gasoline we use the more saved and the less harmful fumes are emitted into our environment.
Are hydrogen cars also hybrids?
Hybrid simply means two types of propulsion. For example, the prius uses gasoline and electricity. A car that used coal and hydrogen would also be considered a hybrid. Cars that are propelled only using hydrogen are NOT hybrids.
How did people travel before railways?
By using carts.
Save Money With a Hybrid Car?
Hybrid cars have recently become more popular, and it's easy to see why: they save the car owner money! Hybrids use less fuel, and with the high prices of gasoline, this is an easy way to save a good chunk of change. Hybrid cars also retain their value far longer than the typical gasoline using vehicle. If someone decides to trade in his or her hybrid for a new car, the cash value will be far greater than the average gasoline dependent car. Additionally, hybrids on average require less maintenance than their counterparts, saving their owners from costly mechanic bills.
What does a Toyota hybrid run on?
A Toyota Hybrid vehicle requires gasoline to run. It employs a conventional petrol engine alongside (usually) two electric motors and a HV (High Voltage) battery. It automatically switches between the petrol engine and the electric motors (or both simultaneously using a hybrid transaxle) in order to create drive.
Who invented the farm tractor?
Charter Gasoline Engine company is credited for first using a gasoline tractor that they built in 1887. However there was a steam powered machine used in logging before the gasoline engine. It is not considered a tractor.
How do you stop detonation?
Detonation, also referred to as knocking in gasoline engines happens when the gasoline vapor in the cylinder ignites prematurely before the piston is in an optimum position in the cylinder, usually, slightly before the piston has reached it maximum extension in the cylinder (referred to as BTDC - before top dead center). The solution is to try using a higher octane of gasoline as the higher octane slows the burning of the gasoline. If you are already using a 93 or 94 octane gasoline, take your vehicle to your friendly mechanic. As there may be other issues involved such as the incorrect timing of the engine.
Porsche Hybrid Delivers Fuel Economy and Power?
The Porsche hybrid delivers fuel economy and power. The Cayenne S Hybrid is a SUV that boasts a six-cylinder 374-horsepower engine. The drivetrain is fully parallel. The vehicle can operate using electric-only, gasoline-only or a combination of gasoline and electric power. The combustion engine engages when you drive over 36 mph. It can also operate solely on electric only at speeds over 86 mph or when the car is cruising.
