What License Plate Does a Hybrid Vehicle Use?
2 Answers
Hybrid vehicles are issued different license plates depending on the model type: 1. Range-extended hybrid models use blue license plates; 2. Plug-in hybrid models use green license plates. A hybrid vehicle refers to a gasoline-electric hybrid, which combines fuel and electric power, utilizing an electric motor as auxiliary power to assist the engine in driving the vehicle. During vehicle start-stop operations, the hybrid system relies on the electric motor to propel the car, with the engine remaining inactive until a certain speed is reached. Its functions include: maintaining the engine in optimal working conditions, delivering strong performance, and reducing emissions. The powertrain of a hybrid electric vehicle consists of: 1. Control system; 2. Drive system; 3. Auxiliary power system and battery.
I've been driving a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle for several years with a green license plate, which is especially convenient in big cities. Previously, driving a gasoline car required entering a lottery for a license plate, which was quite troublesome. Now, I can directly apply and get this green plate. It feels like there's priority for parking spaces, and finding charging stations is easier. During my daily commute, using both gasoline and electricity saves a lot on fuel costs. The car runs quietly, and my family finds it comfortable to ride in. During holidays when highways are toll-free, green plate vehicles enjoy additional benefits. In short, choosing a hybrid is all about cost-effectiveness and urban convenience, and the green plate is a must-have accessory.
