Though the PHEV combines the two types of energy and power, it is not merely a temporary “transition” between gasoline and diesel cars to pure electric cars. Since it can refuel from a standard household outlet and from a gasoline station, it needs no new infrastructure. To ignore this potential is wasteful and foolish.
