For a long time, environmental sustainability and what we now call ‘ecological transition’, in the car sector, was a mere utopia, a dream for a few, but truly very distant. And then?

Between the taking of general consciousness relating to the need to curb air pollution through emissions harmful and the choice of institutions and brands, is everything really changed.

Today, in addition to far-sighted citizens who are open to bbeing of tomorrowit is precisely the productive forces and the authorities who have pushed towards this change of ‘epochal step’, on cars.

So they arrived electric cars but, even before that, the cars hybrid, capable of alternating electric functionality, therefore zero emissions, with the mode traditional, to the engine thermal.

There are of course various hybrid types and we have learned to differentiate them: so much so that a sort of line has even started preferential.

Plug-in hybrids, no one wants to recharge them

For example, according to recent statistics, a bivalent figure has emerged for so-called plug-in hybrids: on the one hand everyone wants them, on the other hand, however, there is boredom in recharge them, you wouldn’t want to do it. In what sense?

It would almost be like shooting yourself in the proverbial foot, seen this way: why want a car that you don’t want Reload? The reason, as often happens when problems arise, is mostly natural economical. In practice, plug-in hybrid cars weigh more, and therefore also produce a higher cost than the so-called normal hybrid.

Plug-in hybrids, weight and cost of charging

The Plug-in hybrid vehicle batteriesin have reduced capacity compared to normal or electric ones, and there are quite a few who complain about themthe weight of the battery and the hassle of having to Reload.

Therefore many, thinking of ndo not take advantage of the plug-in battery, they are thinking of switching to a normal hybrid, which weighs less and consumes less. However, there remain some details that are mostly of a subjective nature: they are there too subjects who in fact do not consider this burden so invasive‘ like certain ones instead statistics would indicate, and consequently even the expense of fuel, when more or less more is consumed, may not be an obstacle insurmountable.

The absolute truth, as always, does not exist, and mostly depends on the will, needs and requirements of the individual buyer. However, what will be the next steps in this evolution of the green car sector, both in terms of performance and… weight and timing?
