> Hybrid batteries mostly save energy by capturing wasted energy when braking and when going downhill Only for some workloads. A remarkable portion of the efficiency gain in hybrid vehicles is due to letting the ICE run at only the most efficient portion of the torque and power curves. In my experience (10 years in a Prius) regenerative braking is a distant second. |
