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. At present, PHEV technology alone is equipped to improve the current electric grid. slow charge.

How does this sound: 100+ MPG in a regular vehicle? But when you do, your car essentially becomes an electric vehicle with a gas-tank backup. Lifetime service costs are lower for a vehicle that is mainly electric. What Are Plug-In Hybrids? We can achieve that -- today -- with a plug-in hybrid (PHEV).
