READ MOREThe Toyota Prius Prime is currently in its second generation, making it one of the longer-lived PHEVs, and it starts at an MSRP of $33,550, meaning that it''s also one of the most affordable. It qualifies for $2,500 in iZEV rebate thanks to its electric-only range of 40 km, and it can travel a total of 995 km before needing to refuel or
READ MOREPlug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) provide much promise in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and, thus, are a focal point of research and development. Existing on-board charging capacity is effective but requires the use of several power conversion devices and power converters, which reduce reliability and cost
READ MORESales of battery electric cars increased by 24% in the last quarter of 2021, while PHEV sales fell, raising the prospect that fleets will transition directly to pure electric motors.
READ MOREThat''s because PHEVs, hybrids, and regular cars primarily rely on an engine to do much of the work. Hybrids and PHEVs add a battery and an electric motor to the mix. Its ability to plug in and charge sets it apart from a hybrid. In a traditional hybrid, the gas engine does the charging. Plus, it can qualify for the federal EV tax credit
READ MORECR explains why a plug-in hybrid vehicle, or PHEV might be the right choice for many. They run on electric power for shorter drives but can switch to gas for longer trips.
READ MOREMyth: PHEVs are slow and underpowered. One persistent myth is that PHEVs somehow underperform their petrol and diesel equivalents. The range of PHEVs is huge, from versatile hatchbacks to powerful SUVs like the BMW X5 xDrive45e – offering as much diversity and variety of performance as you could wish for. PHEVs may even have
