Why does the 2021 Audi A7 have a hybrid powertrain and how does it work?

I have heard that the 2021 Audi A7 has a hybrid powertrain, but I am not familiar with hybrid technology. Can you explain why it has a hybrid powertrain and how it works?

The 2021 Audi A7 has a hybrid powertrain to improve fuel efficiency and decrease emissions. The hybrid system combines a traditional gasoline engine with an electric motor, allowing the car to run on both or either one. This system also allows for regenerative braking, where the energy generated from braking is used to charge the battery.

Audi has implemented a plug-in hybrid system in the 2021 A7, which includes a larger battery and electric motor. This allows the car to run on pure electric power for short distances, and can be charged at home or at charging stations. This system not only reduces emissions, but also provides a smoother and quieter ride.
