Fast-forward about 10 years and a new type of hybrid came on the scene—the plug-in hybrid, and it does require plugging in to charge the onboard battery to maximize efficiency (without plugging in it functions like a normal hybrid). In addition, when in the generator mode, the internal combustion (usually gas) engine charges the battery pack.
