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.

Why would you buy this when a rwd model 3 can be had for $31k or so after Fed credit and current discounts?
My exact same thought haha. I almost wrote the same thing.

The dealership model is outdated and needs to go. People should just buy Teslas—or other FSD cars. Actually, scratch that—just Teslas.
This site is about choice. Plenty of people will find this deal to be a hot one. They don't want a fully electric car, yet. Or a Tesla. Ever.

Quote from darkhunter00 :
Sorry if dumb question but if someone was more rural with limited charging options, could you buy and just drive this as a normal gas car? Would you still get some benefit from the battery if you never plugged it in?I am just confused on what I read when I googled. It says the battery can charge from braking and the engine so it will just "naturally" charge while doing normal driving ?Is this still a good deal if used this way ?
Do you have electricity in your rural location? You can charge this overnight on a standard outlet. You don't need anything special. I'm assuming in the country it is pretty easy to park near an outlet.

Just had an accident with my Tesla Model Y. Never buying Tesla again. The lane keeping assistance software malfunctioned and steered my car steering towards the left when the lane marker was absent. It was raining outside and it was dark. I hit a divider but luckily no-one was hurt but the car got damaged and totaled. Human life is more precious than these bugs in AI.

Hard pass. Only EV worth having is a Tesla and I don't even like them.

Yup. told him to start using fuel stabilizers and not to fill up the tank.
He should still keep the tank filled to avoid more condensation, but the stabilizer will help. That's still crazy how little he drives though.

i dont have faith in the 3 cyl turbo, but combined with hybrid tech may last longer. 2wd and only 30-35 mpg gas kill s this for me id rather just get a prius at similar price.

not a slick deal imo.

Crazy how our govt subsidizes meat dairy and eggs industry which is destroying the planet
Wow, it's a miracle it's not already been destroyed since all of those products have been around a long time.

Check the Congo lately? Or what "clean biofuels" actually consist of?

What a joke. Go eat your beyond meat.
