2024 bmw xm

 

If you’re looking for a new vehicle that will lessen your carbon footprint and protect the environment around Bedford, you’ve likely considered hybrid and electric vehicles. You’re probably familiar with the hybrid BMW vehicles that are a combo of a gas-powered engine and electric battery. What about plug-in hybrid vehicles? Are plug-in hybrids worth it? Find out the answer to this and more about what a plug-in hybrid is with Tulley BMW of Manchester. 

What is a Plug-in Hybrid?

What does plug-in hybrid mean? Like hybrid BMW models, plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEV) utilize gasoline and electricity, but the energy output differs from the conventional hybrids. These vehicles are charged by plugging into an external power source, allowing for extended electric range. Once your battery is drained from driving around Londonderry, the car’s power reverts back to the gas engine. Think of the gas engine as a backup plan. Additionally, you get these benefits from a PHEV vehicle:

  • Extended Electric Range: Plug-in hybrid cars typically offer a greater electric-only driving range compared to hybrid vehicles. Just remember that you have to charge the battery first! 
  • Environmentally Friendly: Plug-in hybrids are generally better for the environment than their hybrid counterparts. 

What are the BMW Plug-In Hybrid Vehicles?
