Hybrid electric vehicles ... are vehicles that use two sources of motive energy, electrical and mechanical, to propel the vehicle. ... In a parallel configuration, the drive system can be powered simultaneously by the [electric] motor or by the mechanical device. In this configuration, during acceleration, hill climbing, or passing, both the electric motor and mechanical device can provide power to the drivetrain. Once the vehicle reaches cruising speed, the vehicle just relies on the mechanical device to maintain speed. 3, record 1, English, - parallel%20hybrid%20vehicle

Les véhicules électriques hybrides (VÉH) comprennent généralement un moteur à combustion interne, un moteur électrique, un générateur et un bloc-batterie. [...] Les moteurs et les blocs-batteries peuvent être montés en parallèle, en série ou dans une disposition combinant les deux configurations. [...] dans un groupe motopropulseur hybride configuré en parallèle on retrouve une connexion mécanique directe entre le moteur à combustion interne et les roues, tout comme dans un véhicule traditionnel. Mais il y a également un moteur électrique capable de faire tourner les roues directement. Ainsi, le moteur à combustion interne seul, le moteur électrique seul, ou une combinaison des deux peut propulser le véhicule. 3, record 1, French, - v%C3%A9hicule%20hybride%20%C3%A0%20configuration%20en%20parall%C3%A8le

Híbridos en paralelo. El vehículo se puede mover en modo eléctrico (a través de la máquina eléctrica), en modo convencional o en paralelo con aporte de potencia de ambos motores. En este tipo de híbridos se aprovecha la energía normalmente empleada en frenar para recargar la batería (freno regenerativo). 1, record 1, Spanish, - veh%C3%ADculo%20h%C3%ADbrido%20en%20paralelo
