Dual Power Sources, Longer Uninterrupted Traveling When one power source is out, there's another one to pick up the slack. That's one of the benefits that a hybrid or plug-in hybrid brings to your commute. And if you don't know the difference between the two, here's a quick explanation. Plug-in Hybrids (PHEV) These models have a larger battery as the main power source and a gas powered engine as a backup supply. These models require "plugging in" for your vehicle's battery to get replenished. Oh, and here's a pro tip—your plug-in hybrid WILL NOT start if it only has battery power. But, it WILL start if it only has gas power. Hybrids Known as traditional hybrids, these models operate with a larger gas engine as the main power source. And a smaller battery as a backup supply. Your battery recharges itself during regenerative braking—a process that recharges your battery when brakes are used. And your battery is only used during low speed traveling.
