What Distinguishes EVs from HEVs and PHEVs?


Electric vehicles house rechargeable batteries and are fully electric. The battery in the EV is its only source of power since there’s no gasoline tank, and the cell assembly should always be charged from the grid. On the other hand, both HEVs and PHEVs have an engine and an electric motor. The feature that makes them different is the availability of charging off the grid in plug-in hybrids, while HEVs can only be recharged by regenerative braking. 


Nissan EVs vs. Competition 


Although Ariya is still in the making, it is expected to heat up the competition for most brands. Mini Cooper SE and Mazda MX-30 have fallen short by a great margin behind Nissan Leaf, which overpowers with its superior powertrain assembly generating up to 147 horsepower and delivering a combined fuel economy rating of 111 mpg, all at a reasonable price of $27,400. Although Kia EV6 and Hyundai Ioniq 5 are equally capable, Leaf is sure to stand the test of time to emerge as one of the most affordable EVs.
