Hybrid vehicles use a combustion engine with an electric motor for propulsion. They also have a high-voltage battery pack that stores energy recaptured from regenerative braking and power from the gas engine. Depending on the driving conditions, the electric motor or the gas engine can take over propulsion or work in tandem for better fuel efficiency and performance. The electric motor provides instant torque and better response leading and efficient take-offs.
Electronic vehicles use electronic motors for propulsion instead of the conventional combustion engine. They also have a large battery pack that store power and power the electric motor. You can plug the batteries into a home charger or a public charging unit. EVs have zero tailpipe emissions and have low running costs since they have fewer moving parts. They also accelerate faster and produce very little noise on the road.
Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) also use electric motors and a gas engine, but they have a larger battery pack that an outside source can power. As a result, they have a longer all-electric range and better efficiency. PHEVs usually run on electric power before switching to the combustion engine.
Charging times vary depending of the type of charger used.
Level 1 chargers use a standard household outlet and charge about 2-5 miles of range per hour, making Level 1 a good choice for plugin hybrid vehicles but not battery electric vehicles.
Level 2 chargers can be installed at your home by a professional electrician and charge about 10-20 miles of range per hour. A good choice for any EV when charging overnight or all-day is possible.
Level 3 fast chargers are the most efficient and can be found at commercial locations. Level 3 can charge about 60-80 miles of range in about 20 minutes, making it a good choice for any EV when a quick charge is needed on the go.
For plugin hybrid vehicles a standard outlet (Level 1) will be enough for overnight charging. For battery electric vehicles, a Level 2 charger will require professional installation by a licensed electrician. If you live in an apartment or condo, consider talking with the property owner about installing a charger or use a nearby public charger. Talk to our sales staff to find out more about charging from home.
Most batteries will last between 100,000 and 200,000 miles when properly cared for. With battery technology continually advancing, that number will continue to increase. If you can keep your battery between 20% and 80% charged most days and avoid extremely hot temperatures, you can expect your maintenance to be minimal.
