Renault ZOE FULL Electric Car Explained

A hybrid vehicle is a vehicle that uses two or more distinct power sources to move the vehicle. The term most commonly refers to hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), which combine an internal combustion engine and one or more electric motors. However, other mechanisms to capture and use energy are included. An electric car is an automobile that is propelled by one or more electric motors, using electrical energy stored in batteries or another energy storage device.
