[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So what do we think about Plug in Hybrids as a bridge to going electric. I'm planning to buy a new car next year and I feel like there are big jumps coming in range and charging capabilities in the next 5 years.[/quote] We just bought (reserved) a car. We were deciding between PHEV and straight hybrid. Ultimately, PHEV was 5-8k more than equivalently trimmed hybrid. The car we wanted was not eligible for the tax credit so the math did not work out. The idea of the PHEV was interesting, but the annual fuel cost savings in DC with home charging cost was maybe $600/yr. Was not worth it to us to pay more for the PHEV and then have to install charger here and vacation home (another $8-10k combined). [/quote]
