Oh, and you can also run this hybrid (battery + engine on) and then you have a very efficient gas vehicle with the added power of electric. When it's cold (under 15 f) the car will not run in electric only - just hybrid.
But you could also never plug it in, and use it as a typical hybrid vehicle, where the regenerative braking (the otherwise wasted energy is used to recharge the battery) yields improved MPG.
...But if you really think you will never get any use out of it being a Plug-in hybridk, typical non-PH hybrids are always cheaper.
I plug it in to 110 (12A) outlet overnight and get a full charge in about 10 hours. Most days that I drive it I only use the electric power. On days I drive more or if I forget to plug it in, I just use the gas in the tank. It has a 9 Gallon fuel tank which gives about 325 miles of driving on gas.
When I go on road trips I put it in gas mode while I'm on the highway and save the battery for when I'm doing city driving or hit stop and go traffic. On long trips (600M) the volt averages about 40mpg of mostly gas driving.
Outside of long road trips I buy gas once every 3-4 months. My electric bill is high, but it's still only about $100/month in electricity for 30-50 miles of driving each day (California, 15c/KWh). I don't have severe winters where I live, so the cold is only a factor when I go to the ski hill.
If you truly intend to never charge the PHEV, then get a non-plug in hybrid instead. PHEV cars have a larger battery which means driving around more weight burns more fuel. If you're never charging that battery to full, then there's no use in hauling it around.

RAV 4's and CRVs were in a whole other price range atleast in the used market. People wanted $30k+ for a 3 yr old car with 50k miles. no thanks.

- If you plug it in daily at night for 10 hours, drive exactly 40 miles a day, you'd pay about $3 a day for electricity (assuming $0.20/kwh in your area, 15kwh * 0.2 = $3)
- If you never plug it in, use it as hybrid, you'd spend at least a gallon of fuel. If it costs $3 in your area, you lose nothing by NOT plugging it in.
- If you buy a regular non-hybrid car, the best you get is 30 mpg on a comparable SUV, thus you pay $4, thus missing out on $1.
In summary, driving it as hybrid or without plugging in still saves you almost as much as plugging it in, assuming $0.20/kwh electricity rates and $3/gallon of gas. If you have cheaper electricity and / or more expensive gas rates, you save some. The main savings come when you compare with a non hyrbid 'regular' car.We are considering an ST-Line escape with the 2.0L turbo from the Mustang. But it would need like $6-7k discounts to be worth it.
Escape is supposed to be discontinued next year so that's another negative.
