Vehicles that utilize more than one energy source for propulsion are usually termed hybrid vehicles. Although the onboard energy storage system (ESS) may be a flywheel or a hydraulic accumulator, most hybrid vehicles use chemical batteries or capacitors and are termed hybrid-electric vehicles. Fuel cells (FCs) may be used in hybrid-electric vehicles as primary power sources instead of conventional internal combustion engines (ICEs).

In this article ICE-battery hybrid transit buses are discussed specifically and contrasted with conventional drive buses. Transit buses most typically are equipped with two axles and have a nominal length of 12 m 40 ft although they may range in size from large vans to articulated units of 18 m 60 ft nominal length. Conventional buses may be equipped with manual or automatically shifted transmissions but most typically have conventional automatic transmissions with a torque converter. Modern automatic transmissions have improved bus powertrain efficiency by employing four or more speeds gear ratios with a lockup capability on the torque converter. Over-the-road coaches are similar to transit buses but are typically 14 m 45 ft in length and may have three axles instead of two. Hybrid-electric buses typically have better fuel economy and lower emissions than comparable conventional buses. Instead of employing aerodynamic body design or weight reduction to improve vehicle fuel efficiency the hybrid system focuses on recovering energy loss during braking and deceleration and increasing powertrain efficiency over a cycle.
