Hybrid system
The HC85 series trains are equipped with a hybrid system, which uses electric motors powered by the rotation of an onboard diesel generator, as well “as onboard batteries which accumulate charge while braking. JR Central claims that the new hybrid system will reduce fuel consumption by 35% and reduce annual carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 6,000 tonnes over the double-engined KiHa 85 series.
