I've been driving the BYD Qin Plus hybrid for over a year now. Charging isn't mandatory since it's a hybrid with an engine that can power the car when the battery is low. But honestly, charging offers many benefits: pure electric mode can cover over 50 kilometers, making urban commutes almost fuel-free; using a home charging station, I plug it in at night and wake up to a full charge, saving a significant amount on monthly expenses. If you don't charge, fuel consumption might be slightly higher than in pure electric mode, but overall it's still economical. In the long run, regular charging helps maintain the battery and prevent aging, making it more environmentally friendly than pure gasoline cars. However, daily driving isn't stressful, and charging feels more like a bonus than a strict requirement. I believe it's fine to choose based on your household conditions.
