Date: November 24th, 2022 12:05 PM Author: jet-lagged provocative newt A regular hybrid can only go full electric for like 500 yards before the gas engine kicks in. A larger battery allows it to be full electric for 30-60 miles, while also recharging the battery like hybrid when braking. A gas engine + electric engine also means a lot more speed/power.

Date: November 24th, 2022 2:49 AM Author: Irate windowlicker Very low IQ thread. A plug-in hybrid means that you have an internal combustion engine and a transmission (both of which will eventually fail and be very costly to replace) not to mention dozens of other moving parts that can wear out. Electric engines have far fewer moving parts so they need much less maintenance. Even the brakes last longer due to regenerative breaking. There is zero reason to buy a plug-in hybrid unless you live in an apartment complex or park on the street or can't charge at home for some other reason. LJL at these low IQ idiots who want the option of driving to the gas station when they could just charge at home for a fraction of the cost.

Date: November 24th, 2022 2:54 AM Author: comical wine resort Would be especially stupid to get a plug-in hybrid if you can't charge at home. The car would be underpowered all the time and the ICE would start to feel janky at high RPMs after 10-20k miles. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5241025&forum_id=2#45538721) |

Corporations bought tens of thousands of PHEVs to give their employees as company cars, but Europeans don't have garages/at home car charging, so tens of thousands of Europeans are driving PHEVs, hauling 500lb uncharged battery packs around.

It essentially uses the electric motors in reverse to slow the car and put charge back into the battery |
