How does the hybrid engine in the Audi A3 work?

I'm interested in purchasing the Audi A3, and I heard it has a hybrid engine. Can you explain how this engine works and what benefits it offers?

The Audi A3's hybrid engine utilizes both an electric motor and a gas engine to power the vehicle, providing increased fuel efficiency and lower emissions. The electric motor also helps with acceleration and adds an extra boost of power when needed.

Hybrid engines in the Audi A3 use a regenerative braking system, which converts the energy from braking into electricity to charge the battery. This helps to extend the range of the electric motor and reduce the reliance on the gas engine.

With the Audi A3's hybrid engine, you can also utilize different driving modes such as all-electric, hybrid, or battery hold. This allows you to choose the most efficient driving mode for your specific needs.
