Don't just opt for a petrol model if you’re thinking of replacing your car - a plug-in hybrid could save you money
Plug-in hybrid vehicles can be a good option for anyone who's not ready to go fully electric, because they provide many of the fuel and emissions benefits of electric cars on short drives but have the flexibility of a petrol or diesel engine for longer runs.were sold in this country in 2021 – that's one in six of every new car registered.What is a plug-in hybrid car and how does it work?
Ranges are typically 20 to 30 miles, but some PHEVs have an official pure electric range of more than 50 miles. This means they can complete many urban journeys on electric power, emitting zero tailpipe emissions en route. But you don’t need to worry about topping the batteries up if you need to go farther, because the conventional engine automatically kicks in and takes over when the batteries are depleted.
Alternatively, you may be able to get a faster energy fix at a rapid public charging point if your PHEV is able to charge at a higher speed. There are more than 35,000 public charge points at 13,000 locations around the UK, and a growing number of them offer very high rates of charging., and this company's 350kW ultra-rapid chargers can provide a 10% to 80% charge for a compatible electric car in just 20 minutes.
Add this to the fact that PHEVs tend to cost more to buy than petrol or diesel rivals, and this could mean your motoring costs are higher than they could be.
