Cars with smarter efficiency

What is a hybrid car?

A hybrid car uses two power sources: an internal combustion engine (usually petrol) and an electric motor with a battery. They work together to improve fuel efficiency, reduce emissions, and use regenerative braking, which recovers energy when you slow down and feeds it back into the battery.

There are different types of hybrid vehicle. Traditional "self‑charging" hybrids charge their battery only while driving and offer short electric‑only distances. Plug‑in hybrids, like Volkswagen's eHybrid models, have a larger battery you charge from the mains.

Volkswagen plug‑in hybrids combine an electric motor with an efficient TSI petrol engine. In E‑Mode, most day‑to‑day driving can be done using just the electric motor which is quieter, more efficient and reduces running costs. For longer journeys, Hybrid Mode combines both the petrol engines and the electric motor for a smooth performance and a reassuring range.
