Plug-in hybrid vehicles, also known as PHEVs, combine an electric motor and an internal combustion engine. The battery can be charged by plugging a charging cable into an external power source. If you run out of range, simply switch to the combustion engine, and recharge when it’s next convenient for you.
Plug-in hybrid cars emit much lower emissions than their combustion engine equivalents, which contributes to lower greenhouse gas emissions and cleaner air.
