Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hybrid electric vehicles save fuel through regenerative braking and shutting off the gasoline engine when not needed, making them more efficient in stop-and-go city driving where the electric motor can be used more frequently. On the highway, the gasoline engine is used more and the electric motor is less used, resulting in lower mileage. Therefore, choice C, which states that hybrid vehicles often have better mileage in cities than on highways, is the correct answer.
