Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) are gaining popularity due to increasing emissions restrictions and demand for electric cars. PHEVs feature powerful electric motors, larger batteries, and gas engines, allowing for home charging. They provide a blend of electric driving with the convenience of gas power. To maximize efficiency and fuel economy, regular charging is essential; otherwise, PHEVs may underperform relative to standard hybrids due to their heavier design. There are a variety of PHEVs available in the U.S., ranging from under $35,000 to $280,000, with options beyond SUVs coming soon.
Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) feature powerful electric motors, larger high-voltage batteries, and a gas engine, allowing recharging at home like traditional EVs.
PHEVs can deliver excellent fuel economy and can drive daily commutes on electricity, but they require regular charging to maximize efficiency; otherwise, they perform like standard hybrids.
