PLUG-IN HYBRIDS

A plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) is a vehicle with batteries that can be recharged by connecting a plug to an electric power source. It shares the characteristics of both a conventional hybrid electric, having an electric motor and a backup internal combustion engine (ICE) for power, and of a battery electric, also having a plug to connect to the electric grid. This topic covers the latest news and information on the expanding market of PHEVs.
