A mild hybrid adds a 48 V system with a belt-starter generator (or integrated starter-generator) and a small 48 V battery. It recuperates energy under braking and helps the engine, improving economy, without the full high-voltage architecture of a strong hybrid.
Start-stop systems shut the engine down when stationary and restart instantly. They depend on a battery capable of many starts, and on correct battery registration so the charging strategy matches the new battery’s age and type.

Key points
- 48 V mild hybrid = recuperation and assistance, not full EV drive.
- Start-stop needs a suitable battery and correct charging strategy.
- Register/adapt the battery after replacement.

Key points
- A belt-starter generator adds recuperation
- 48 V is below HV thresholds but still powerful
- Batteries need registration/adaption
All values shown are training examples. Real thresholds depend on the manufacturer, engine, temperature and system — always confirm with the vehicle service documentation.
