Hybrid vs. Electric Vehicles – What Are the Differences?

The main difference between hybrid and electric vehicles is that hybrid vehicles use a gasoline engine, otherwise known as an internal combustion engine (ICE), in combination with an electric motor. This combination means that you won’t have to worry about finding a charging station for your vehicle as you can simply visit a gas station to fill up. An electric vehicle strictly uses an electric motor with a battery to power your Bartow drives.

Benefits of Hybrid & Electric Vehicles

Truthfully, both hybrid and electric vehicles have plenty to offer. So, if you’re choosing between the two, you’ll want to consider your Brandon lifestyle. If you’re a little apprehensive about going with a fully electric vehicle, then a hybrid vehicle is probably a better choice. However, if you’re looking to not have to worry about stopping at a gas station again, you’ll appreciate the electric driving experience in an EV. Some benefits of both options include:

Hybrid

  • Easy fillups at regular gas stations
  • Exceptional driving ranges
  • Typically lower priced than EVs
  • No need to worry about charging the battery
  • Seamless gasoline & electric motor integration

Electric Vehicles

  • Zero tailpipe emissions
  • No engine noise
  • Lower maintenance costs
  • Various charging options
  • Potential Florida tax incentives & savings

What About Plug-In Hybrid Vehicles?

To further bridge the gap between hybrid and electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid vehicles are also an option. They feature a larger battery so that you have the ability to plug into a charging station if you want to enjoy some electric driving range. However, if there’s no charging station nearby, you can simply treat it like a regular hybrid vehicle and fill it up as usual at a gas station.
