plugin hybrids (PHEVs). We can see that BEVs have continued to grow, whilst PHEVs have been squeezed. PHEVs shrunk in volume by some 28%, down to 703 units. PHEVs, with their middling emissions ratings, are taxed somewhere in between. April’s combined share of 91.1% comprised 83.3% full battery electrics (BEVs), and 7.8%

PHEVLERs are defined as PHEVs with sufficient battery capacity for all electric driving of twice the average daily distance. [ Electric fuel cost is a fraction of gasoline or diesel fossil fuel cost, even at a time when petroleum prices are temporarily reduced due to geopolitical manipulations and manufacturing costs.

urban buses, delivery trucks) and high mileage light-duty vehicles, primarily fleet vehicles (such as taxis, business and government vehicles). On the other hand, natural gas derived gasoline and diesel have the advantage of being drop-in fuels, but carry a higher conversion cost. These include short-range, heavy-duty vehicles (e.g.,

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 In this paper PHEV refers solely to the long-range PHEV of 60 miles (100 km) electric-only range.) It is much more than that.

At the same time, battery costs, which are the single largest driver of TCO for BEVs and PHEVs, are declining further and faster than projected just a few years ago. As taxis and shared cars drive significantly more miles each year than personal-use vehicles, the payback in electrification will come much faster.

We are starting with optimizing our conventional drive trains—the TDI diesel engines, the TSI engines, the DSG transmission, all of those technologies have helped us to lower our fuel consumption a lot. Think of diesel in the early 1990s where it had tiny single digit market shares, and now it’s up to 50%. —Christian Buhlmann.
