Parts of a Hybrid Car

The basic systems of a hybrid car.  It includes a
Set of batteries
A PCU
An electrical engine
A reduction gear
A planetary Gear
A gasoline engine
A generator
They have a lot of machines, which make them go a ton of Km ( well not a ton, but you get the point) slower.
The set of batteries stores electricity for the whole car. The PCU (power control unit) transmits electricity to where it is heading like from the batteries to the electric motor or the generator to the batteries. The electrical engine helps move the car and does most of the work in the cities. The reduction gear is the gear that has to be spinned to spin the wheels in order to make the car move. The planetary gear just connects the gasoline engine and the electrical engine together. The gasoline engine does most of the work when the car is driving at high speeds (on the highway, for example) and also sends a bit of gasoline to the generator. The generator takes gasoline from the gasoline engine and turns it in to electricity for the batteries or the electric motor.
