Hydraulic hybrid vehicles with their time-tested technology deliver better fuel economy than their battery operated hybrid cousins—saving companies that use them 30-50% on fuel consumption. The energy efficiency of hydraulic hybrid technology is being realized now in commercial vehicles, such as delivery and sanitation trucks, and availability for pick-up trucks and other smaller passenger vehicles is on the horizon. As use of hydraulic hybrid technology grows, the savings will be measured in billions of gallons of oil per year.
