Hybrids DO have the ability to run on only electricity, like the Ford Maverick, BUT you can't select when it switches over and because their battery is much smaller, it doesn't run electric-only for very long. Just thought I'd clear that up.

I agree with your dialog. We have a PHEV. We drive 100% electric except for occasional out of town trips. With our solar roof charging the car our operating costs are very low.

My wife and I bought a VW GTE Passat (plug-in) and we have filled it up 7 times in 1 year. We have a charger parking at our apartment complex so we basically only use gas when we go on long journeys. Along with great fuel economy we also get sports car features when we need it. Definitely the best car we have ever bought.

Thanks for the great presentation, gives me, clearly, the information needed in understanding the various concepts of the various hybrid functions.

This information was very helpful. I have a short commute to work and do not drive much otherwise, except for occasional long road trips to visit family. It sounds like the plug-in hybrid is my best choice.

That was an excellent breakdown of the differences. Thanks. I got the RAV4 hybrid, and it's been a dream car.

The best video...to the point. Information exactly i was looking for as a first time buyer.

@TheHansoost

Very helpful information. Thank you very much. I was fairly clueless as to the differences.

I did buy the Rav4 Prime. As a city dweller, I am able to do almost 100% of my in-town driving on pure electric. This has the additional advantage of not contributing to the pollution haze that hangs over Phoenix, Arizona. Especially in winter when temperature inversion traps the pollution. After over 5000 miles I've average 67.7 mpg combined (USA gallons) or around 80 mpg for British gallons. I go weeks at a time without refueling and most often fuel stops are only needed when I'm driving out to the mountains on weekend getaways. On the electric plan I use the cost of electricity is around 8c to 10c per kwHr (off-peak) and the car is setup to only recharge during these periods.

I have the hybrid 2015 Lincoln MKZ . This car has 173,000 miles on it and still delivers 38.3 miles per gallon . Very dependable. Never seen tow truck . Still looks and drives fantastic. Love it !

It depends on where and how the car is going to be used. I live in Montana, and distance and cold weather tell me that a hybrid would be more useful. Not everyone lives in Metro areas or corridors.

I have a Hyundai Sonota hybrid that was retail priced at about 25k. With sales promotions, I paid about 23k. I now have almost 90k miles on it. Other than normal maintenance costs, I have not yet spent any money on repairs. The brakes last much longer due to the regeneration feature of the hybrid. With gasoline prices escalating, I have saved tons of money and more than recovered my extra costs. It is quiet, comfortable, economical, reliable, and stylish. What more could you possibly ask from any vehicle?

I have a KIA NIRO PHEV, bought in december 2022. Great experience and I was lucky: with 8000 km on the teller the beauty with all the luxury features was direct available from the dealer in Assen, Holland. Every day I drive some 50 km's and therefore it is just the right choice for me. I can charge at home as well as in the neighbourhood. Thank you for this video!

I bought my first hybrid a few months ago and am loving it, not warmed up to anything else yet!!

I LOVE my Rav4 Prime! I am on my 9th week of no Gas top-up, I plug it in nearly everywhere I can. If I would have known how efficient and fun it is to own a Plug in Hybrid, I would have made the switch sooner!
