[quote=Anonymous]Another important consideration (I think - still new to this myself) is whether they are "plug-in hybrid" (PHEV) or just plain-vanilla hybrid. For someone who does little driving, all local commute type stuff, the PHEV should be a much better deal. A normal hybrid extends the gas mileage by boosting the gasoline-powered engine, which is basically always running. (I read somewhere that the Lexus hybrid, for example, rarely if ever sticks in electric mode.) The Volvo, OTOH, is advertised as a PHEV that runs its first 15 or so miles off the charger purely on electric, which could cover all your local driving if you're a light driver like OP is.[/quote]
