Hybrid Cars

Hybrid Cars are those that use two or more means of propulsion. Internal combustion and electric motor cars are common hybrid cars. The electric portion of the system can be run via rechargeable batteries, or a chemical mix.

What are the similarities between hybrid car engines and conventional car engines?

Both hybrid car engines and conventional car engines are designed to power vehicles, relying on internal combustion principles. They each use an engine to convert fuel into mechanical energy, providing propulsion. Additionally, both types of engines can incorporate advanced technologies for efficiency and performance, such as variable valve timing or turbocharging. However, while conventional engines primarily run on gasoline or diesel, hybrid engines also utilize electric motors and batteries for enhanced fuel efficiency and reduced emissions.

Your 1999 GMC Yukon cuts off when it is idling sometimes It seems to only do it when it is hot outside It mostly happens when you are sitting still at a red light or when you are stopped Can you help?

It sounds like your 1999 GMC Yukon may be experiencing issues related to overheating or a malfunctioning idle air control valve, which can cause stalling when idling, especially in hot weather. Other potential causes could include a dirty throttle body, a failing fuel pump, or a vacuum leak. It would be best to have a mechanic diagnose the issue to pinpoint the exact cause and make the necessary repairs. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning the throttle body and checking for vacuum leaks, may also help prevent this problem.

I have a car that has not been moved in over a year with old gas in it. Do I just add more gas to it or is there an additive I can use?

fuel stabilizers only work when put in before storage. your best bet is to drain out the old fuel, there will be sediment in the tank and some of the fuel may be gel like so it is better not to let it run through the fuel system and into the engine.

Do hybrid cars emit radiation?

my most positive answer to this question is that i do not think hybrid cars emit radiation.

it just doesnt make sense.

They emit the same radiation any other car does: IR when the engine is running, visible light when the headlights are on, RF if you are using your CB radio, etc.

What are the pros and cons of Hybrid cars?

There are many different things good about Hybrids. A Pro about them in that they get great Mpg because of a break through design. A Con about it is that....... well the only bad thing about it is that it is small and doesnt have alot of cargo space.

the person who typed that is really retarted...

  1. what about how much power it takes to charge the hybrid..

  2. how much fule it takes to make the cars and power the plant that makes the cars
  3. how about when the car gose to the junk yare all of the acid in the car battary is going to spill into the ground
  4. and what about the materials that make the car
  5. what about the 4 cylender engine that helps move the car and powers the A.C.
  6. what about the fule you need to put into the engine to help the car move

my mom has a volts wagon bettal and it gets 53.83 MPG and it is all gas and the hybrid gets the same amount so really hybrids don't save the environment at all and sence they are mostly made by Toyota what about all of the 1,000,000 cars they had to recall because of the sticking gas throtal and there whole electronical systom shuting down then the cars blow up. THEY ARE HORIBLE...

Ya ok that is a Toyota what about the GM hybrids, the Ford Hybrids The Mercedes Hybrids just because some are made by Toyota dosent mean that all of them are bad stuped dick

First of all who ever spelled the word retarded as "retarted" is REALLY RETARDED! Secondly its VOLKSWAGEN not "volts wagon" And its Beatle not "bettal"!! IDIOTS

CON: HYBRID CARS ARE GGGAAAAYYYYY!!!!!!!! except for the BMW i8, witch is sexy.

Environmental effects on hybrid rocket motor?

The thick trail of black smoke left by SpaceShipOne would tend to indicate that the HTPB/N2O hybrid rocket used on that particular craft is less than green. However, since hybrid rockets are not exactly mainstream technology, little information is available regarding their emission characteristics. This, of course, will likely change should hybrid rockets ever become more widely used. And efforts will likely be made to reduce emissions.

You get a check hybrid system warning in Camry hybrid in 2009?

It's not your problem. Your car must have warranty. Bring the car at the dealer place and let him to have that headache.

Which types of footwear should be worn while working on a hybrid vehicle?

The type of footwear that should be worn while working on a hybrid vehicle is that with rubber soles.

The hybrid car runs which type of alternative fuel?

Gasoline. They convert this into electricity before it is used to power the car.

What is better hybrid cars or alternative fuels cars?

i think it would not make a difference the hybrid take alot of electricity stations to be build and charged so the factory which makes bateries would polute as much as the regular gasoline car does and that will affect the environment.but any way the earthhas to switch to electricity soon because we are running out on petron we probaly could hold till 2025 then switch but we will not have time to switch because the supernova is coming soon so blame ourselves and the government.

There is a huge difference. Alternative fuel autos run on Ethanol and lower octane fuel. This creates a large demand on the corn supply. There are some reports that it takes over one gallon of diesel and 200 gallons of water to make a gallon of ethanol. If this is true, the ethanol fuel is costing us energy. In any event this ethanol is being seriously subsidized by the Government and is absolutely costing us tax dollars. Alternative fuel systems will not help reduce any dependence on foreign oil and cost the country in terms of increased demand on corn, which increases the cost of many food products.

Hybrids may not be anywhere near as friendly for the environment as they claim to be, but they do help reduce overall fuel consumption. This, in turn, reduces our dependence on foreign oil.

Why do hybrid cars ruin the environment?

the chemicals and things that are used to make the batteries are more damaging.

you have to drive a hybrid ace 100 thousand miles to make up for the damage it does

Why do hybrid vehicles use less fuel?

Hybrid cars can also use electricity to run as well as gasoline. Therefore, it is able to go much further on one tank of gas. This is why hybrid cars are not only better for the environment, but also more economical to drive.

What are the advantages and disadvantages between a motor car and a hybrid car?

"Motor cars are a lot more powerful in terms of speed and fuel life. However, a hybrid car's battery is electrical which makes the car life regenerative."

How do hybrid cars help fix global warming?

Hybrid cars usually have two engines, an electric one and a gasoline one. The electric motor runs from batteries which are charged from the mains electricity, or from the gasoline engine while it is running.

If the electricity comes from a renewable source, like solar, hydro or wind power, then the car is saving carbon emissions (It is not causing any release of carbon dioxide into the greenhous atmosphere.).

When hybrid cars (any cars for that matter) are manufacted, the process involves a lot of carbon emissions, from the steel, aluminum or plastic used, to the electricity involved in production etc.

So hybrid cars don't do a lot to fix global warming. They make people feel good, and they do a little to help.

A much better solution would be to walk, ride a bicycle or use public transport!

A:The hybrid car cuts down on Carbon Dioxide released by the burning of petrol and petrol products (gasoline). They are designed to slow down the build up of greenhouse gases causing global warming.
A:They use less gas and go more miles and also because they don't release as much greenhouse gases as normal cars do.

What energy does hybrid car use?

They use kinetic energy by conerting potential energy into it.

The fuel source is diesel or gas.
