PHEVs (blended 10-mile strategy), extended range electric vehicles (40-mile AER) and full EVs begin to make economic sense when gasoline is at about $10/gallon US. PHEVs and EREVs require $7/gallon. Referring to the PHEV/EV market, Anderman said: Lithium-ion is the preferred battery for a problematic market. Click to enlarge.

Depending upon the carbon intensity of the electricity used to charge the battery, the PHEV model can also have well-to-wheel greenhouse gas emissions relatively close to that of its electric sibling. The PHEV has a 3.3 EPA combined fuel economy. The Ioniq Electric: 180 g/mile. The Ioniq Electric: 180 g/mile.

Millions will plug-in their electric vehicles (EV), plug-in hybrids (PHEV) and fuel cell vehicles (FCV) at night when electricity is cheap, then plug-in during the day when energy is expensive and sell those extra electrons at a profit. Millions of EVs and PHEVs would expand the sale of electricity as an alternative to oil.
