An HEV combines electric and gas with great mileage from 40-60 mpg but little electric range. Can have single-tank range of up to 750 miles and the car decides when to use gas or electricity. Very dependable with less maintenance than a traditional car.

- Great mileage with no extra steps to operate, smoother power than gas only.

- Drivers with very short commutes may not realize benefits as fully.

A PHEV, is a hybrid car that has electric only range of 20-55 miles with a total driving range of up to 700 miles. When electric range is depleted, seamlessly converts to hybrid mode. Benefits are great for shorter commutes potentially eliminating most gas usage while still handling long road trips. Charge time ranges from 4-7 hours from a household outlet (faster charging options available). Can achieve 135 MPGe vs a hybrid car

- Great for shorter commutes and long distance driving. Tax Credit Available

- No range anxiety due to gasoline backup and low maintenance like a hybrid 

A BEV, runs solely on electricity, no engine backup. Total driving range can be from 85-335 miles and can be charged by high-voltage cable in 2-6 hours.
