Like electric hybrids, the hydraulic hybrid system is able to support gasoline and diesel engines in ranges where they do not work at optimum efficiency. The gas cushion stores energy by the gas being compressed rather like a coiled spring. This motor takes the stored energy and delivers it back to the vehicle via the transmission.
