Iran Khodro is designing a hybrid electric vehicle called “Eco Cross” that will initially use gasoline and later electric power.
"K125 is the first hybrid gasoline-based and electric vehicle, although the car will enter the market as a gasoline-based model," the deputy head of Research, Design and Product Development of Iran Khodro announced, while noting that the electrification of this industrial group’s vehicles is on the agenda.
Hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) are a combination of gasoline and electric vehicles, so they have a battery, an electric motor, a gasoline tank and an internal combustion engine.
"By mass-producing low-consumption engines, we can reduce fuel consumption by 2 million liters per year," Mohsen Rezaei-Manesh was also quoted as saying by Donyaye Khodro.
