Both HEV and PHEV performed well, with the HEV being a bit more sprightly due to the weight reduction, even with a less powerful motor.

Probably the most needed and least controversial proposed change is the elimination of the phaseout of the tax cap that begins in the quarter after a manufacturer sells 200,000 BEVs or PHEVs in the US. But all of these PHEVs have batteries of around 9 kWh and so they could easily be upgraded to 10 kWh to qualify for the tax credit.

O ften when I talk about Plug-Ins , I say that PHEV's are a perfect embodiment of the 80-20 rule. But in the case of the PHEV , the logic goes something like this: Roughly 80% of our daily trips are under 35 miles. Here's a piece of it: Why do PHEVs reduce greenhouse pollution ? And the remaining 20% are longer trips.

This month I’ve tested two very similar cars back-to-back, I think bringing into sharp relief where we (California and the U.S.) You could argue a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) does that, but that’s not really true. I was tipped off to a great physical comparison tool that drove home how similar in size these two vehicles were.
