General (General discussion, talk about anything.)
Gb we have a car which as a small battery under the passenger seat .This is a mild hybrid. Whilst driving the petrol engine runs on either 4 cylinders or 2 cylinders it changes itself. It has what they call coasting mode also were the engine switches off and it runs on the battery, Ok on the level or down hill. Our next car will have a eco boost engine with a 48 volt battery which will boost the turbo petrol if you need a quick boost to say overtake quicker Every time you brake energy is taken from the braking and helps recharge the battery If you are thinking of getting a hybrid car then contact Toyota, All of their cars are hybrid and have been for a few years so they can answer most questions about their cars
