your questions about the advantages of plug-in hybrid

WHY IS HYBRID TECHNOLOGY AN INNOVATION?
The main innovation of the hybrid car is the integration of two types of engines in the same vehicle: an internal combustion engine and one, or even several, electric motors.

Integrated technology automatically manages the switchover between three different driving modes: electric, combustion-powered and hybrid (which uses internal combustion and electric energy).

The major benefit of the hybrid vehicle is that it combines the practical aspect of a combustion-powered car with the environmental and economical advantages of the electric powertrain.
Energy management and the multimode automatic gearbox offer significant day-to-day versatility while offering performance and economy.
ARE HYBRID CARS RELIABLE?
Our hybrid vehicles are reliable and benefit from our expertise in developing electric powertrains and combustion engines. 

Due to their hybrid design, the combustion engine is not used as much during the most impactful phases (start-up and acceleration). Not only that, the design means that there is no clutch or drive belt, so less maintenance is required. And by limiting replacement parts, maintenance costs are lower. 

A hybrid vehicle has a combustion-powered engine and one or more electric motors. It switches between these two power sources depending on the road profile, required speed and battery charge level. 

Renault’s hybrid vehicles benefit from our wealth of experience in the e-mobility sector. Renault also trains our entire network on the specific features of hybrid vehicles - Renault advisors are ready to welcome you and assist you with your vehicle maintenance.
