Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Technician B is correct because some hybrid vehicles indeed use electrically driven A/C compressors to maintain cooling without the engine running. Technician A's statement about a large reservoir of liquid refrigerant is incorrect; hybrid vehicles do not use this method for cooling the passenger compartment during engine-off periods.
