Plug-in Hybrid
A plug-in hybrid is a vehicle that combines a traditional gasoline engine with an electric motor powered by a rechargeable battery. You can charge the battery by plugging the car into an electrical outlet, allowing it to run on electric power alone for short distances, which reduces fuel use and emissions. When the battery is depleted, the gasoline engine automatically takes over, providing longer range. This setup offers greater flexibility, lower fuel costs, and environmentally friendly benefits compared to conventional cars, while still allowing you to use fuel when needed for extended driving or convenience.
