What Are the Differences Between Hybrids & Plug-In Hybrids near Bradenton?

While it is tempting to lump traditional hybrids and plug-in hybrids together without a second thought, there are some key differences between them that will change how you drive. Traditional hybrids use a small battery to augment the gas engine, often using the electric power to supplement power and extend range. There is no need to go out of your way to charge a hybrid; hybrids recharge on their own through regenerative braking.

Plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) work a bit differently. They have larger batteries, meaning they offer more driving range and more electric-only miles, and drivers must plug them in to a compatible at-home or public charging station. Overall, PHEVs offer more power with different caveats.
