Abstract

The present invention relates to hybrid drive for vehicles that significantly decreases the consumption of fuel because it uses a turbine motor, which is turned on solely when the charge of the accumulator batteries drops and always works at best rpm. The device increases the distance covered by the vehicle without need for frequent recharge of the batteries from the power supply network. Furthermore, the turbine motor is lighter than the petrol piston engine and in the same time more efficient. The device includes installed accumulator batteries that supply power to at least one electric motor coupled via transmission to the drive wheels of the vehicle, and fuel tank supplying fuel to turbine motor coupled via reducer to generator that is connected to the accumulator batteries. Control unit monitors the charge of the accumulator batteries and turns on and off the turbine motor. Some embodiments include one or more containers for compressed gas that replaces batteries as means of storage of energy, by storing the energy generated by the compressor actuated by the turbine engine or the electric motor in the form of high pressurized gas.
