When starting or driving at low-speed, the electric motor will move the vehicle.
During acceleration or climbing, the electric motor and gasoline engine work simultaneously to produce the extra power.

While cruising, either the electric motor or the gasoline engine supports driving whichever is the most energy-efficient in that situation.
During deceleration, the regenerative braking system charges the battery by using the electric motor to slow the car.
When stopped or waiting at traffic lights, both the electric motor and the gasoline engine stop.
