The average battery-only range of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) can vary depending on several factors, including the vehicle’s specifications, environmental conditions, and driving habits. Generally, PHEVs are designed to provide an electric-only range that covers typical short trips.
Common Electric Ranges for PHEVs:
- Many PHEVs offer an electric-only range of up to 55 miles in ideal conditions, though this can vary depending on the model and conditions.
- Models like the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid and the Mazda CX-90 PHEV have ranges around 25-26 miles, which are suitable for short, local trips.
- Some smaller battery PHEVs might offer ranges as low as 22-25 miles, which is still sufficient for most errands.
Overall, while the average electric range might not be more than 25-30 miles for many common PHEV models, it is generally adequate for short, daily use—especially when considering urban or suburban environments where many trips are under 20 miles.
