What Kind of License Plate Do Hybrid Vehicles Use?
1 Answers
Hybrid vehicles mainly come in three types: plug-in hybrids, conventional hybrids, and range-extended hybrids. Among these, only plug-in hybrids are eligible for green license plates, while other hybrid vehicles are excluded and cannot obtain green plates; instead, they use the blue license plates designated for regular fuel-powered vehicles. Below is more information about hybrid vehicles: 1. Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) are currently the most common new energy models among domestic manufacturers. The most notable difference is their charging capability. PHEVs have relatively larger batteries that can be externally charged, allowing them to operate in pure electric mode. Once the battery is depleted, they switch to hybrid mode (primarily using the internal combustion engine) while recharging the battery as needed. 2. Conventional hybrid vehicles offer high fuel efficiency and superior driving performance. These vehicles use fuel for their engines, but with the assistance of an electric motor during startup and acceleration, they can reduce fuel consumption, resulting in lower fuel costs.
