To go 200 miles, you fill your tank one time and use only half of it.
A plugin would have to be charged 2 times if you believe the sales pitch nd 4 times if you live in the real world.
More in very cold climates.
The first reference I found on the net says $4.00 per charge and 5.5 hours if you can get to a 22v charger.
So 4 times $4.00 = $16.00 plus 22 hours on various chargers.
This all very well for a person who drives only as far as he really should take a walk.
My point being that there are other costs beyond the cost of electricity.
Interesting in that I read a report the other day, and I did not keep the link, that ran a survey of what owners who trade in hybrids purchase with the trade.
Very very few purchased another.
It kinda stands to reason that only people who didn’t like their hybrids traded their cars in. Most are too new, for people to simply be trading their hybrids in for something newer, given that hybrids are being sold at full sticker value.
