Do Plug-in Hybrids Need Charging?
1 Answers
Plug-in hybrids do require charging, and the charging methods include: 1. Installing the home charging station provided by the manufacturer; 2. Using public charging stations; 3. Using a portable charging gun; 4. Charging via the car's engine. A plug-in hybrid is a type of new energy vehicle that sits between pure electric vehicles and traditional fuel-powered cars. It features both the conventional car components—such as the engine, transmission, drivetrain, fuel system, and fuel tank—and the electric vehicle components, including the battery, electric motor, and control circuitry. Plug-in hybrids can be categorized into: 1. Traditional internal combustion engine drive: which relies on fuel consumption for propulsion; 2. Electric drive: which uses the power stored in the battery for propulsion.
