sponge-like graphene nano particles have an ability to capture and maintain energy. This can change the electric car industry. Traditionally electric cars use Li-ion batteries that operate at 400 W/kg and these graphene particles operate at 48‚000 w/kg. These batteries are said to be able to last longer and to charge in a matter of minutes. This difference in energy ability is that Li-ion are batteries where as the sponge-like graphene are super capacitors. Super capacitors are designed to work at much

every year. There are many perspectives from experts about hybrid car. First perspective is a hybrid car is one that uses more than one of propulsion that means combining a normal petrol or diesel engine with an electric motor (Webster‚ 2014). Second perspective from expert is the hybrid vehicle utilizes two different power train “varieties” or energy sources and merges them to form one hybrid power train (Cobb‚ 2014). The third idea about hybrid car is it utilize more than one form of onboard energy
