A HEV vehicle commonly combines a conventional propulsion system with RESS. They combine these two to achieve better fuel economy.

HEVs are more expensive (the so-called “hybrid premium”) than traditional ICE vehicles (ICEV), due to extra batteries, more electronics and in some cases other design considerations. The trade-off between higher initial cost and lower fuel costs (often referred to as the payback period) is dependent on usage .Traditional economy vehicles may result in a lower direct cost for many users (before consideration of any externality).
