Too bad most of them aren't plug-in hybrids. Including mine. If I could have plugged in my Prius every morning, I would have used almost no gas, because my former job's commute was 10 minutes.
PHEVs are really what manufacturers need to build until the charging infrastructure is there. We went from filling gas 2x/month to 1/quarter. We’re in EV mode 90% of the time.
Also, with EVs they really need to throw in level 2 charger installation in (yeah, I know not everyone owns their housing situation). That would help A LOT.
I've been saying this for 25 years. PHEV is the bridge that carries the infrastructure forward.
I remember when we all ignored you 25 years ago. What a travesty, how right you were. We should have listened to you back then, when you were telling us that PHEVs were the bridge. You didn't sound crazy at all on those AOL chat rooms.
Spot on, except it was ICQ and bbs's.
I recognize that came off as douchey, like I'm smarter because I said it first, but I only meant that I strongly agree and have done for a very long time.
Yeah, the government speeding up charger infrastructure would help a ton. Thankfully they are at least helping a little bit, the faster the better for the reasons you stated.
