By John Coulter, CURRENT EV CMO In its new Prime, Toyota offers a RAV4 green version that employs a hybrid drivetrain relying on a gas engine and electric motors that draw power from a plug and regenerative braking. Its 42-mile EV range, its 600-mile total range and relatively low price tag have made the PHEV an instant smash hit.

PHEV/EV Models 2010-2012 by Battery Chemistry. In the near term, the Li-ion market, and the electric vehicle (EV) industry in general, will be largely fueled by government subsidies, incentives, and production goals, the report says. Even with broad global interest in EVs, less than 2.5% Source: Pike Research.

The recall of Toyota’s Prius is causing some observers to question whether the prospects for the entire hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) and electric vehicle (EV) markets are fundamentally hurt. OEMs see the strategic need to develop and offer HEV, PHEV and EV vehicles—above and beyond simply complying with regulations.

EVs and PHEVs can only be as ‘green’ as the electricity used to charge their batteries. Recent results from EV trials show a typical carbon dioxide emissions rating to be around 100g/km, when the car is charged from a typical power supply in the UK. Electric Vehicles: charged with potential.

Paradox 1 - Soot: There's an apparent emissions paradox with plug-in hybrids (PHEV): Driving longer distances on battery power means more cold starts as the internal combustion engine (ICE) stops and starts up again after the batteries deplete. They could make PHEVs and EVs today, but they don't want to.
