What are Hybrid Vehicles?

Hybrid vehicles have brought innovation to the automotive industry. They have both a traditional gasoline engine and an electric motor, so you get the best of both worlds. A Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) is one where its battery is charged using energy generated by the internal combustion engine through regenerative braking. With every deceleration, electric energy is produced and used to recharge the battery.

Is PHEV Better Than Hybrid?

A PHEV (plug-in hybrid electric vehicle) is super versatile. It can be recharged by being plugged into an electric source the same way a fully electric vehicle gets recharged, in addition to being charged through regenerative braking, which gives it a huge advantage over the HEV.

What Is the Point Of PHEV?

What differentiates a PHEV is that you can drive on purely the electric motor for a limited time and range, such as when idling at a red light. A PHEV usually has a bigger battery and larger battery capacity, leading to a better fully electric driving range. It can be plugged into a regular household electric outlet which makes it incredibly convenient. It can also be plugged into electric charging stations for fast charging.

Is It Worth Buying a PHEV?

PHEVs are incredibly fuel-efficient and have lower carbon emissions and a reduced environmental footprint compared to regular HEVs. Our Finance Centre will help you get started on a life of sustainability and affordability with competitive financing for your new PHEV.
