plug-in hybrid electric vehicles
"Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) are vehicles that combine an internal combustion engine with an electric motor and rechargeable battery. These vehicles can be charged by plugging into an electrical outlet, enabling them to operate on electric power alone for a certain distance before switching to the combustion engine. PHEVs offer increased fuel efficiency and reduced emissions compared to traditional vehicles, offering a bridge between gasoline-powered vehicles and fully electric cars."
