Now the automobile market is transitioning to new energy vehicles, and traditional car companies have also developed some transitional models during the transition period, plug-in hybrid vehicles and oil-electric hybrid vehicles. Hybrid models seem to be more popular than pure electric vehicles, which have no range anxiety and save fuel consumption.
The gasoline-electric hybrid vehicles in the domestic market are mainly Based on Japanese cars, such as the Toyota Corolla Dual Engine Edition and the Camry Dual Engine Edition are all performed by oil and electricity activities. Plug-in hybrid cars are basically domestic cars, and BYD Tang DM is a plug-in hybrid car.
Compared with these two hybrid models, the oil-electric hybrid car can save fuel and do not need to charge, which completely frees the owner from the problem of battery life anxiety. Plug-in hybrid cars produce almost no fuel consumption in pure electric drive mode, but if the electric motor is not powered, the fuel consumption will be higher than that of traditional fuel vehicles. Since the advantages of plug-in hybrid cars are not as obvious as those of oil-electric hybrid cars, why do many people choose plug-in hybrid models when buying cars?
The difference between a gasoline-electric hybrid car and a plug-in hybrid car
Gasoline-electric hybrid vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles have a big difference in structure, oil-electric hybrid vehicles do not have an external charging interface, it is to drive the generator in the process of traveling to charge the battery pack of the vehicle. When the vehicle is driving at a very low speed or just starting up, it can be driven in pure electric mode. In the state of rapid acceleration, the use of motor drives can improve the acceleration performance of the vehicle.
Plug-in hybrid vehicles have an external interface on the body to charge the motor. Moreover, the electric motor of the plug-in hybrid car is relatively large, occupying a large number of places in the engine compartment, which can provide a longer cruising range for the vehicle. For example, after the BYD Tang 100 is fully charged, the pure electric mileage of the vehicle can reach 100 kilometers. In hybrid mode, as long as there is oil in the car, it can drive indefinitely.
The biggest disadvantage of plug-in hybrid is that the preparation quality is heavier than that of traditional fuel vehicles, in case the motor is out of power, the fuel consumption of the vehicle will continue to increase, resulting in a decline in fuel economy.
Although there is such a disadvantage in plug-in hybrid, many people are still willing to choose plug-in hybrid cars because plug-in hybrid cars can hang green license plates, while oil-electric hybrid cars can only hang blue license plates.
If you have carefully observed the cars on the market, you will find that Toyota's dual engine models are hung with blue license plates, but BYD Tang dm hangs green license plates. Because the current national policy stipulates that only pure electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles belong to new energy, cars can enjoy the subsidy policies and indicators of new energy vehicles.
As long as the cruising range of pure electric vehicles exceeds 50 kilometers, it can apply for new energy license plates, and it cannot be regarded as a new energy vehicle if it does not reach 50 kilometers. Although Toyota's hybrid vehicles also use hybrid technology, its pure electric mileage does not meet the requirements of 50 kilometers, so even if its comprehensive fuel consumption is low, it cannot enjoy the subsidies of new energy policies.
Before 2022, the state's subsidies for new energy vehicles are still relatively high, and many car owners have limited budgets for buying cars, but buying new energy vehicles can save a lot of money, so they chose plug-in hybrid vehicles. Moreover, plug-in hybrid vehicles belong to new energy vehicles, and the listing is not restricted, eliminating the trouble of queuing up and lottery. Gasoline-electric hybrid cars can't enjoy these benefits, so everyone gives up.
