” For driving long distances, the ICE is more efficient.
The plug-in hybrids were an attempt to bridge that gap, but the range on electric is very limited.”
EV’s are upto a 500 mile range. Most Americans never drive 500 miles in one day.
I can’t think of a EV that will do 500 miles on a single charge. I think the Tesla Long Range model is only rated at 350+/- and that’s the published range which is not the norm.
Which vehicle are you thinking has a 500 mile range?
