What size battery is found in a hybrid electric vehicle?
The batteries found in electric cars are pretty massive, but since a hybrid has both an engine and a motor, what size battery would you find in a hybrid electric vehicle?
Chanice Boyd · Updated on
Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.
That’s a keen observation. You would find a 12-volt lead-acid battery in a hybrid electric vehicle.
The battery in a
hybrid
electric car is designed to fully power the car for distances between 10-40 miles. The reinforcement of the engine allows the battery found in a hybrid vehicle to be smaller than the battery found in an EV. Fully electric cars run exclusively on the energy stored in the battery and are expected to travel for longer ranges on a full battery charge.
Whether or not you drive a hybrid or all-electric car, you’ll need to ensure that your vehicle has the correct type of car insurance. Jerry, a licensed broker, can help ensure that you have the best and most affordable car insurance for your unique situation.
