Came across You Tube "The Car Care Nut" - Specialist Toyota Engineer. He said if you do low mileage - less than 4k pa - don't buy PHEV because batteries require regular use/cycles and won't get that on low mileage. I'm assuming point is also valid for EVs & BEVs, yet short journeys is sales pitch for EVs. Be interested in your views as looking at market and run a similar mileage.
My daily is a 06 Ford Escape Hybrid n I recently took a trip to Denmark where I discovered that their ev charging is slightly more complicated than in the states. In the end I got a ioniq plug in hybrid as a replacement rental, n driving it back to the airport I kinda liked it. As a car guy, I absolutely will not buy or own any Prius, so this is a pretty good looking alternative for me. Tho I’d prob go for the normal hybrid since I drive a lot.
I possess an Ioniq 28 KWH Electric vehicle. While attempting to charge it using AC, the connection failed, and the car did not receive a charge. I encountered the same issue when trying CCS, and the cable appears to be in good condition. What might be causing this problem?
as you said. you do need to the maths but some guidance on the differentials. mileage points that make 1 more effective than the other ... just on the maths would be helpful. I am looking 2nd hand. Drawn to the PHEV but not sure on 6000-8000 miles a year the difference is worth and whether the electric range justifies the the circa £500 home charge installation cost. any help welcome. thanks
Unless you run errands all day, you will cover the difference in price between HEV and PHEV with fuel economy in about ten years. So, no, it's not worth it unless you want to be more eco, more likely you will get another car after ten years or replace the battery adding another cost.
For longer journeys, the PHEV makes sense. But due to cost, a standard hybrid is the way to go for most people. For business purposes, a Phev only saves about 10% on fuel (or $2.50 to $3.50 per day) if you do 300 mile day driving, but costs about $7k more. This might change when Solid State batteries become a thing. Electric is mostly useless if you're on the road more than 4 hours a day. PHEV makes sense for all drivers. The road tax benefits of an all electric car, are nothing compared to the extra purchase cost of the vehicle.
Can the PHEV still charge and switch to EV mode from ICE like a HEV? Just bought a 2022 Ioniq Hybrid Blue and considering switching to PHEV now before it's too late to return.
Yes. But it´s not really worth the extra Money you have to pay since you already have the Hybrid. Drive it as Long as you can until longer range EVs become more affordable/viable for you.
@@Kopfkirmes55 with incentives/rebates/federal tax credits choosing the plug in hybrid might be cheaper than the normal hybrid (this is in the US at least)
EV's are still in their infancy both in terms of vehicles and infrastructure. The fact of the matter is that the plug-in hybrid is the best overall right now. Full EVs only make sense if you limit yourself to in-town driving-. This may be fine for some but for most people it's an unacceptable trade-off for a primary vehicle. Thankfully technology continues to evolve and the circle of range keeps getting bigger.
I found these guys super annoying, especially at the start. Are the script writers 21 years old? I think a shorter and more concise video could easily be made by Hyundai to help people learn about the cars.
VERY GOOD VIDEO, thank you for the natural human conversation about such a mind boggling and technical subject!

The lease deals the Ioniq is phenomenal in the states.
Great video thanks

I drive for work up to 250 miles per day, city and highway.
So which Is better for 250 miles per DAY, hybrid or plug in hybrid or any electric car ! Thanks.
@@Reddylion I think EV, coz I would save a ton of gas money
sad sod
@@eddiedevereoxford4995 how are you? are you sad?
250 miles PER DAY??!! 😱
In Croatia, you don't take a job remote more of 6 miles (10km) from your home.
20 miles (30 km) is maximum of the maximums.
i've had an electric with 250miles of range, switching to a plug-in. The pain with charging this thing on trips is a nightmare.
Same, I got rid of my long range EV too.

Phev
That's what I've gone for! Getting it next week :)
What are the advantages of plug in hybrid over hybrid or ev.
bruh of you translate phev you get sperm
And god help you if you tow a trailer or caravan.
Living in a world where people are afraid to stand next to each other is insane. I'll watch another video.
