Conventional hybrids These hybrid
architectures have conventional engines
and electric motors and batteries but
cannot be plugged in (Figure 4). They
derive their power from gasoline and
diesel and thus are not categorized as
electric vehicles. A mild hybrid typically
uses a small electric motor and 48V
battery combined with an ICE, allowing
for assisted acceleration and regenerative
braking. A strong, or parallel hybrid,
will generally consist of a larger electric
motor and battery combined with
a downsized ICE using regenerative
braking and electric motor drive.
