Hybrid/EV
The sheer number of hybrids (HEV), plug-in hybrids (PHEV) and battery electric (BEV) vehicles in the market is bewildering. We get it. Luckily, DRIVEN Car Guide has all your electrified car needs covered!
Hybrid
Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV) rely mainly on a combustion engine, but with the assistance of an electric motor and a small battery. Hybrids cannot be plugged in, with the ICE recharging the battery directly.
PHEV
Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV) run both an internal combustion engine (ICE) and an electric motor, allowing for a short (usually 50 to 100km) electric-only range for daily commuting, with the back up of ICE for longer trips.

BEV
Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV) have no combustion engine, being powered solely by a battery. Quick, quiet and cheap to run, BEVs are a great option if your lifestyle suits.
