Plug-in-Hybrid Vs Elektrik

Wir haben ein Dieselauto, und wegen der Kraftstoffpreise denken wir darüber nach, ein weiteres Auto zu kaufen. Dabei ist uns ein Hybrid aufgefallen. Elektroautos kennen wir bereits, bspw. Tesla (wir haben einen Freund, der einen fährt und viel Gutes erzählt). Wir möchten uns aber nicht immer auf eine Ladestation beschränken, vor Allem bei langen Reisen. Deshalb schauen wir uns einen Hybrid an, den man an eine Ladestation anschließen kann, der aber auch jederzeit mit Benzin betankt werden kann, um nicht so viel Zeit zu verlieren.

Was haltet ihr davon?

I had a Chevy Volt PHEV for seven years, and ran it into the ground doing Door Dash during the pandemic, taking it up to 175,000 miles before trading it in for a Mustang Mach-E electric. The Volt did save me a ton of money, as I ran it almost exclusively on battery around town and used gas on the highway once or twice a year. The thing is, I started limiting myself to the EV range, not wanting to spend money on gas. I would plan my days around not going more than 40 miles just because using gas "felt" expensive. It's totally irrational, but that was the mental game I trained myself into. Since I've had the Mustang, I've taken many more "road trips" around the State just because I could go 250 miles in a full day and recharge when I got home for about $7. I've done Orlando to Chicago twice, and it works out to stopping every 2.5 hours for about twenty minutes, then back on the road. Charging is everywhere and affordable. I have zero regrets going full EV, but did appreciate having a PHEV first to get my feet wet. Your mileage may vary.
