Should you consider making your next vehicle a plug-in hybrid?
For the most part – if your budget can handle the higher cost – the answer is yes. That’s especially true when you need to drive something like a three-row SUV, where the larger and heavier body style is going to keep fully battery electric options cost-prohibitive for a while longer. By choosing a plug-in hybrid, you’re dipping your toes into electrification in a way that lets you try out the technology and lifestyle without fully committing to the plug because there’s still a gas-powered engine on board as a back-up. Plus, if encouraging EV adoption is something you’re into, by buying into batteries you’re helping to accelerate demand, which will play a role in reducing costs and bringing about the electric revolution that much faster.
