What color is the license plate for hybrid vehicles?
1 Answers
Hybrid vehicle license plate colors vary depending on the type: plug-in hybrid and range-extended hybrid vehicles have green plates, while gasoline-electric hybrid vehicles have blue plates. Gasoline-electric hybrid vehicles, which combine gasoline and electric power, are not considered new energy vehicles and thus use blue license plates, the same as conventional fuel vehicles. Hybrid electric vehicles, also known as compound power vehicles, are equipped with more than one power source: storage batteries, fuel cells, solar cells, or generator sets from internal combustion engines. Currently, compound power vehicles generally refer to those with an internal combustion engine generator plus a storage battery. License plates are plates attached to the front and rear of a vehicle, typically made of aluminum, sheet iron, plastic, or paper.
