Summary of L3 & L4
At the end of this lesson, you have completed the introduction to Electric and Hybrid Vehicles. To help summarize the topic, create a mind map for Lessons 3 and 4.
If you are planning to buy a Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV), which type of HEV would you choose, and why? Discuss your reasons.
Personally I’d choose an FHEV as it uses both an ICE and an electric motor. I was convinced with opinions who have driven a car of this type, which runs on its electric motor at low speeds, making it fuel efficient and switches to the ICE around 30 km/h for normal driving.
Types of HEV
Plug-in Hybrid Vehicle
Operates on ICE, electric motor (for short distances), or both; battery charged by engine and regenerative braking.

HEV Classificaiton
Power Split Hybrid
Uses planetary gears to split power, combining series and parallel benefits.
Series hybrud
ICE powers a generator for the motor; no conventional transmission needed, motor links to a transmission sub-unit.
Parallel hybrid
Single clutch: ICE and motor work independently or together. Dual clutch: Enables pure electric drive. Axle-split: Motor and engine on separate axles.
