what is a hybrid car?
There are 3 types of hybrid technology: mild hybrid, self-charging hybrid (full hybrid) and plug-in hybrid.
A car is said to be a hybrid when it uses at least two different energy sources to move, generally:
- a combustion engine (petrol or diesel)
- an electric motor powered by a battery
The advantage of a full hybrid is that it can recharge its battery automatically while driving, allowing electric driving in stop‑start city driving conditions.
Dacia focuses on self-charging hybrid technology to deliver the right balance of efficiency, practicality and everyday ease of use.
the advantages of full hybrid cars
self-charging
No need for a charging point or cable; the battery charges automatically while driving through regenerative braking and deceleration.
greater range
A hybrid car can use less fuel than an equivalent combustion‑powered car when the electric motor is operating.*
* Based on WLTP urban‑cycle testing. Actual fuel consumption and driving range will vary depending on driving style, traffic conditions, vehicle load and weather.
lower CO₂ emissions
Hybrid vehicles can help lower CO₂ emissions in everyday driving, especially in stop‑start urban conditions, depending on driving style.
how can a Dacia hybrid powertrain optimise fuel use?
Dacia hybrid vehicles help optimise fuel use by combining a combustion engine with an electric motor. In urban driving, the system can operate in electric mode for a part of the journey, while on the open road it can rely on the combustion engine to improve efficiency. This smart energy management can help reduce fuel consumption and lower running costs over time.
