Summarizing, based on my experience, the choice will depend on the driving profile. 1. Mild Hybrid: suitable if driving mostly on motorways. You do not need to carry extra weight of the battery. The mild is just fine on motorways and small incursions in the city. 2.,Hybrid: suitable if driving 50/50 % in city / motorways. It worths carrying the extra weight of the batteries and the complexity because the reduction of the fuel consumption in the city is substantial. The consumption on the road is similar to the mild hybrid, but the gains in the city can justify the investment. 3. Plug-in Hybrid: suitable if driving mostly in city. Here the big batteries tax the fuel consumption on the motorways, and the tire will suffer because of the extra weight. All complexity will be justified only if the car is driven mostly in the city, where the costs can be well reduced. Here it becomes evident that the pure EV starts competing as a better choice.

Mild ones (MHEV) are nearly no hybrids. The real economy you can see with the full hybrid ones and if you wish to have an electric vehicle and you aren't sure how easy will be in your country to find a charging spot whenever exactly you need it, then the best solution is the plug-in. I love the plug-in and this will be my next car.

I've own a Hyunday Tucson PHEV. It combines two worlds Phev and Hev. When battery reach 18÷15 % of charge it became Hev vehicle. Regenerative breaks works all the time. On the short run 150km per day fuel consumption with full battery is 3.5÷5 l/100 km. On electric mode only range I've achieved 50÷70 km.

This was the best explanation between the various types of hybrid cars so far i have seen. Thank you.

For the last 2 - 3 months I was looking to get a PHEV from Skoda but ended up getting a normal petrol engine instead. For me, since I try as much as possible not to use the car in the city, the electic drive, altough seems cool, is a bit of a nonsense. If you want to save on fuel or care about the environment, then use public transport. For other ocasions, like when I go shopping or on a vacation, I want a car that has a lot of space in it and I simply can't stand the idea of hybrids having less space in the trunk because of the batteries. The problem is that nobody talks about this space limitation and many people are buying these cars but have no idea what they are getting into until they start using it

a mild hybrid is a great way to retrofit an existing platform. say you just recently finished a new car platform in 2020 and it still has some time before the replacement platform that supports a full hybrid is ready. well then adding a mild hybrid system is a great way since you don't need much more space to put stuff and can easily make use of modified versions of existing components.

Great explanation! Keep up the good job!

If you can't recharge at home/work, then get a HEV. If you think you can drive more than 80% electric, then it makes more sense to get a full electric instead of a PHEV.

The mild ones are the best for city running, while the hybrid vehicles are for low emission areas, and the plug-ins for quiet residential areas.

Good explanation! Keep up the good job 🙂

Brilliant, short and concise info shared on all 3 buddy! Can you tell me when the electric functions come to use/activate on the Mild Hybrid please? :)

You forgot Subaru hybrid system. Which is technically a plug-in but is different from the one in your video

Which one is the best for doing uber and travel long distance?thanks

Mazdas new suv brought me here. I’m wondering what the heck is a mild hybrid! I’ve only heard of hybrid and plug in lol 😆 Mazda just give me a hybrid version please.

good lucid explanation of the three types

Danke !! Super info !

I have a mild hybrid car it reduces fuel consumption 0.5lt/100 and I love it when shut downs engine

I appreciate your work!

Thanks Very Well Done Explanation

good explanation. For me, better choose Hybrid.

internal combusttion engine are relativly quite efficient under predicatable and consistant load thats where hybird and mild hybrid shine it help out with regenerative braking puting energy otherwise wasted back in to the drive train and help the engine aclerated during its less efficent low speed phase of its comsumption and mild hybrid especially can easily be manafacture and surported by today current exisiting infustructure i would in today world mild hybrid and hybrid being the most practical choice now with phev being 2nd and bev still having 1 or 2 more generation to mature.

Good explanation

My 2008 diesel had a range of 700 miles when it was new. It still has a range of 700 miles today. It takes a few minutes to fully refuel from empty

my MG Rover is hybrid car too, because it runs on Gasolin and LPG

Merci Dan pour cette vidéo explicative

@SDA Dan Card @Dan vide asta e foarte fain facut crezi ca poti sa faci unu si pe canalul romanesc sa il putem da celor care nu stiu cum e cu Hibdridul. Poate Merge cu un Voice Over. Multumesc

You First Look

I would like to get Car for PCO in london city but I’m confused whether Hybrid or plug-in Hybrid so please leave your Recommendation thanks

Can you tell me what should I look for specifically when buying an used car? Also, would you suggest a person to buy a new car or a used car when his/her budget is tight?

Is hybrid cars propelled by engine or electric motor.

thanks for this video, could you talk about the BEV in an other video ?

My next vehicle will be a Phev. Switzerland's tax system is crazy...only 25% road taxes but almost 370cv combined h.p. For my 4x3 kilometer/day comute the eletric power is more than enough...only 50/60 km/h max speed roads from home to work! And for winter or long distances ICE power is always there. If home charging could be possible i would buy E.V. instead !! 🤗

Do you make recommendations? Do you suggest that buying a PEH is better than buying an EV? I am looking to choose one among the European brands. Your suggestion is most welcomed. Thanks.

does plug in hybrid recharge itself with engine combustion and break ?

how many liters of fuel consumption per 100 km? mild hybrite??

I just bought a new huyundai Tucson hybrid system and it has a message check 48 volt system, What might be the cause?

The plug -in full hybrid can recharge itself while in the move or only with the cable?

Why is the PHEV your favourite 😍

It is extremely difficult to find out fuel consumption with 0 battery of PHEV because car manufacture use some weird formula that combines consumptions and it can be around 1.5L/100km. How to get 0 battery consumption?

great !!! 🤩

2 new models of Toyota is launched in India. 1. Mild hybrid ( Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyrider). 2. Strong/ Full Hybrid ( Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyrider). I can afford the strong Hybrid. Which one shall I go for.

thanks . good summary of the three models. Do you know if the PHEV batteries are charged from braking or ICE (regenerative)?

Plz give your feedback for Suzuki Wagor R FZ mild Hybrid

Watching the difference, the mild hybrid is basically the same normal ICE, the only difference is the efficiency, is more like an E-ICE (Efficient Internal Combustion Engine) 👌🏻💪🏻, therefore, that means that possibly the H2-ICEs (Hydrogen Combustion Engine) could be also mild hybrids or E-ICEs (how do i call them), the hybrid and plug in hybrid are the real hybrids (especially the PHEV) 💪🏻👏🏻

What is the main mechanical problem(S) with the PHEV and or Hybrid?

It surprises many people that many hybrids have about the same number, or fewer, mechanical pieces than conventional cars. Not more, Many, if not all, of the devices that are usually driven by a serpentine belt can be replaced with electric versions. These may not have fewer parts, but they tend to be more reliable. Those hybrids with just one motor usually put it in place of the flywheel, and everything else (except there is no alternator) is mostly the same. So the number of parts is quite similar. Those with two motors use them as a "hybrid transmission." Not only does it replace the conventional transmission with far fewer pieces, it also replaces the clutch or torque converter, starter, and alternator. And, while the two motors are very similar devices to the starter and alternator, although bigger, they have fewer pieces.

I think the mild hybrid or an EV is my choice.

what is your honest opinion on the mild hybrid, is there a real advantage?

How many batteries do these type of cars have? And how many in an EV?

E-kicks = walking generator

ANOTHER DISADVANTAGE FOR ALL ELECTRIC CARS HOME LOADING STATIONS COAST AROUND 3000 euro

Just give me a 6 liter V8😅😅

Unfortunately, there are no real incentives for hybrid or electric cars here in Switzerland.

Will the car still run even without or defective 48v battery in the Mild Hybrid system? Thanks

Why are there so few "range extender" models, where the petrol or diesel engine _doesn't_ drive the wheels? Why are there no models where the fuel engine doesn't drive the wheels, but can put out enough power to keep the battery charged - at least some of the time?

Can we convert diesel MERCEDES BENZ to PHEV?

Les MHEV mildhybrid sont incapables de rouler en mode 100% électrique 😅 de faux hybride
