A new study by Scott Hardman and Gil Tal at the University of California, Davis has found that discontinuance occurs at a rate of 21% for California plug-in hybrid adopters and 19% for California battery electric vehicle adopters. of those that discontinued BEV ownership are unlikely to purchase a BEV in the future; 10.5%

Bubble chart of plausible mainstream PHEV buyers’ battery requirements (light and dark gray circles) and experts’s requirements overlaid on a Ragone plot of NiMH and Li-ion batteries. Questions for the industry, Kurani said, include how do we get from where households currently are to where PHEVs provide the most benefit?

Two recent studies explore different aspects of the use, potential impact and valuation of PHEVs. A study by Jonn Axsen and Ken Kurani from the Institute of Transportation Studies, UC Davis, estimates electricity and gasoline use under three recharging scenarios. the electric range capability—of the PHEV.

and UC-Davis Emeritus and Catherine JJ DeMauro. The PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle), a subset of the electric car, combines a primary electric motor with a much smaller back-up engine fueled with a hydrocarbon/biofuel mix. In this paper PHEV refers solely to the long-range PHEV of 60 miles (100 km) electric-only range.)
