As the push towards electric vehicles ramps up, consumer demand increases for all-electric and hybrid electric vehicles. Plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEVs) have two power sources, a battery and an engine. Therefore, PHEVs are powered by an electric motor and by fuel. To help offset the cost of purchasing a PHEV, provincial and federal EV incentives are available. If you’re looking to lease or purchase a PHEV, follow along as this article lists the best PHEVs in Canada.
PHEVs usually have a limited electric range in comparison to all-electric models. Most PHEVs have an electric range of around 30-60kms. The electric range in PHEVs is helpful for short commutes and trips around town. Even though PHEVs have limited electric ranges, they are still an excellent choice for those wanting to drive a more eco-friendly vehicle.
*Disclaimer: All vehicles are built to code with the necessary safety features. Charging varies by voltage—charge times based on fast-charging (400V+). Additionally, all specs are based on the base edition models.
