How does the energy recovery system work in the Audi A2?

I've heard that the Audi A2 has an energy recovery system. Can someone explain how it works and if it has any impact on fuel consumption?

The energy recovery system in the Audi A2 works by recycling energy that is usually lost during braking. It uses an alternator to store this energy in a battery, which can then be used to power various systems in the car. This can have a positive impact on fuel consumption, as less energy is needed from the engine to power these systems.

Actually, the energy recovery system in the Audi A2 is known as regenerative braking. It uses the braking force of the wheels to generate electricity which is then used to help power the car. This can improve fuel efficiency and reduce CO2 emissions.
