Yadilloh, thank you for reading and thank you very much for taking the time to comment. We need to correct your facts, however. Hybrid-electric vehicles (like those examples we chose) use brake-energy regeneration to generate electricity. It is then stored in a high-voltage battery. The vehicles then use that electricity to propel the vehicle using electric motors. The RAV4 Hybrid and Venza have three each. Roughly 30% of the miles they travel are on electricity, and none of it is generated from the internal combustion engine. There are some hybrid-electric vehicles that use their on-board liquid-fuel engines to create electricity, but all hybrids can create energy when slowing (whether they are using brakes or not).
