@@qwertz4035 didn't see your reply. It's a "planetary gear set" like a Ford Model T transmission, or an old school pencil sharpener. With only three parts; an outer ring gear - powered by the big electric motor driving the wheels, a planetary gear set that spins inside the ring gear powered by the engine, and a central sun gear controlled by the small electric motor - the combination of all 3 let's the Prius do what it does. It can generate (⚡) and use (🔋⛽) two different energy sources in multiple ways. The small electric motor not only generates electricity from the engine, it can instantly set the gear ratio of the engine at any speed (even as a reverse gear).

@@patricknintemann924It's still a very efficient engine, though it's true that the hybrid system doesn't do much while holding steady. The idea behind a hybrid system is that it allows you to undersize an engine. An small engine working harder is generally more efficient than one being choked off through the throttle plate. Anytime you need more power, the electric motor can boost you through. Whenever you don't need the extra power, the ECU can move the engine load into a more efficient zone to recharge the batteries. Cars without hybrids need a much more powerful engine in order to cover every possible situation on its own, and is oversized for steady state. Which is why they only start to become efficient at highway cruising, where you're working the engine more. Eco-turbos are utilizing the same logic. You can undersize an engine for steady state, and spool up the turbo when you need more power. Though it's obviously less flexible since it can't bank excess energy

But this is not the ultimate in battery performance. The Prius has a small battery and is only using maybe 50% of the battery capacity (to reduce aging and to be able to keep the same performance in a 10 year old car as a new, since the lost capacity comes from the reserved oart and not from the end-user capacity) Different cars are designed for different needs, and a big top speed was not part of the goal for the Prius. It's like riding in an old car from former East Germany and use as reference for what a petrol car is capable of.

The engine noise is interesting. It is not related to the speed. This explains why Toyota drivers don't drive too fast, the engine gets load very early and runs at max. RPM for max. power.

Top Gear modified the Robin to roll more easily for content, so I wouldn't put much stock into their results.
