Can a Plug-in Hybrid Run Without Electricity?
1 Answers
Plug-in hybrid can run without electricity, this type of vehicle can rely on the internal combustion engine to drive when the battery is depleted. Both plug-in hybrid vehicles and pure electric vehicles are eligible for the new energy green license plates. The government has regulations for plug-in hybrid vehicles, stipulating that such vehicles must have a pure electric range of over 50 kilometers to qualify for the green new energy license plate. The difference between plug-in hybrids and regular hybrid vehicles is: plug-in hybrids need to charge the battery; regular hybrid vehicles do not require battery charging. Plug-in hybrid vehicles have a longer range, while most pure electric vehicles have relatively low range, and it takes a long time to fully charge the battery of a pure electric vehicle, which is the main reason why many consumers do not purchase pure electric vehicles.
