Yes, you don't have to plug this in at all if you don't want. You can drive it as a 100% gas car. I have a PHEV Jeep (28 miles electric) and it's just enough to run the kids to school, grab lunch, pick them up again, run to Costco, and get home all on electric. If I run out of battery, the gas engine kicks on and I have another 250 miles of range. When we do road trips, you basically run out of electric within 15 minutes and then it's just a gas vehicle the rest of the way. PHEV vehicles are not ones that you'd charge at a public charger (you could, it would be dumb). Electric at home, gas anywhere else.
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.

A plug-in hybrid CAN act as a full EV for limited range (15~50miles, typically).

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 drive a Chevrolet Volt PHEV. It has 50 miles of electric range (13KWH battery). It really is a sweet spot as a second car for mostly in town driving, or a full-electric alternative for a single car household.

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.

I've come close but never been able to get myself to purchase a vehicle from a foreign company. I just feel like it's my duty to purchase from an American manufacturer even if it's built in Canada or Mexico. Been driving Fords since I got my license in 1981 and have never had any major issues (Yet).
I'd rather buy a Hyundai built by real Americans in Alabama than a Ford built in Mexico. This way I'm keeping working Americans employed and not the greedy leaders of the "great" car companies that decided to move their manufacturing out of the contry.

That's not good for the ICE, that fuel has a finite life before it degrades and water collects in the fuel tank, especially since our gas is now a 10 or 15% Ethanol blend +, E85 is even worse. Better tell him to add a fuel stabilizer moving forward.
Yup. told him to start using fuel stabilizers and not to fill up the tank.

The dealer was truly amazing today. Probably my best dealership experience ever. Very smooth transaction and friendly folks. For reference, it was not charged and I drove 200 mi through the mountains of North Carolina. I got 45 mi to the gallon. 75 of the miles were purely electric. I have a home charger that I'll be using and that's why the value for me in the plug-in is so sweet.

So whenever summertime comes around and it's hot they always tell us don't use your appliances because there might be a blackout from too much electricity use. But they want every household to have two cars charging every night where is that electricity coming from? And then when everyone does finally convert over to these pieces of s*** what do you think they're going to do to the price of electricity? If you ever watched videos of India or China us being green and doing all this stupid s*** over here isn't going to cancel out what they're doing there this is a money grab for politicians

Night charging is off peak and uses "wasted" energy.

It's only a 14.4-kWh battery capacity which gives you a measly 37 miles on electric power before firing up the gas engine. Should include this in the deal details

Educate yourself on what a PHEV is and what its use cases are. It boggles my mind that people have this "iT dOeS nOt fIt mY UsECaSe sO iT wOnT FiT OtHers" mentality.

Quote from Jacads :
You only get it if you make under a certain amount I think $150k single and double that if married. You also only get it if you owe money to the IRS at the end of the tax year if I'm not mistaken.
What you owe at the end of the year does not matter at all. As long as you have enough tax liability, you can get the rebate.

What you owe at the end of the year is your tax liability minus withholdings your employer takes from the paycheck every pay period. So for example, if your total liability is $10k, employer withholds $11k, you would typically get $1k back when you file taxes. If you buy an EV that qualifies for $3750 in rebate (like this Escape), then you still get $4750 from the IRS.

The buyer can also choose to take the credit at point of sale instead. Then the $3750 is discounted immediately instead of having to wait for tax time.

For a buyer that chooses point of sale discount, the only qualification that matters now is that their AGI is not over $150k for single filer or $300k for a joint filer.

You need to re-check your math. Using public chargers always costs more than the equivalent gas in an ICE vehicle, usually around twice as much. Even for efficient EVs like Teslas

It was late night, drive home math but it equated to ~70mpg. I do live in California where gas is $4.50 a gallon though.
