Plug-In Hybrid Offerings

While plug-in hybrids may have a higher upfront cost, they offer significant savings on fuel over time compared to traditional hybrids. Plug-in hybrids can be recharged by connecting to an external power source, allowing the battery to provide a longer electric-only range. Regular hybrids, however, are divided into two types: mild hybrids and full hybrids.

A mild hybrid includes an electric motor and a battery that assists the internal combustion engine (ICE), powering systems like the stereo and HVAC. It also provides a small electric boost when braking, improving efficiency slightly. On the other hand, a full hybrid can operate similarly to an electric car at low speeds, running on electric power alone. However, at higher speeds, the gas-powered engine takes over for better performance. In some full hybrids, the electric motor and the ICE can work independently, while others combine their power for enhanced engine performance.
