Electric Vehicles

Frequently asked questions about hybrids.

What is the difference between a Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) and Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV)?

A hybrid electric vehicle and a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle both utilize an electric motor and a gasoline engine. They both use the electric motor and gasoline engine simultaneously, adapting based on current driving conditions. Both vehicles also use regenerative braking, the process of recovering energy to propel the car - the most efficient way of putting energy back into the electric battery.

The key differences between the two is that the plug-in hybrid has a larger electric motor and greater battery capacity in comparison to hybrid vehicles. Once the electric range is depleted on a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, the vehicle will operate like a regular hybrid until plugged in. The plug-in hybrid plugs into an external electric source while the standard hybrid is solely fueled like a conventional gasoline vehicle.
