Types of Electric/Hybrid Vehicle Explained

If you’re wondering what the differences between a mild hybrid, plug-in hybrid and electric car are, read on…

Mild Hybrid A mild hybrid electric vehicle (MHEV) features a conventional combustion engine which benefits from power boosts provided by an electric motor (whose energy is provided by a battery). Unlike a plug-in hybrid, an MHEV is self-charging and it can’t run on electric power alone.

Plug-in Hybrid A plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) is effectively the ‘halfway house’ between a petrol/diesel car and a pure electric vehicle. Like an MHEV, it features a combustion engine, an electric motor and a battery. However, unlike an MHEV, a PHEV can run on electric power for approximately 30-40 miles (depending on the make and model). PHEVs are affordable to run and produce low emissions. The battery requires external charging. View Stock

Electric An electric vehicle (EV) is the most cost-effective type of car, since it runs purely on electricity (supplied by a motor, which is powered by a high-capacity battery). EVs also produce zero carbon emissions, making them the greenest option. An EV’s battery requires external charging and offers an average range of 200 miles.

Electric FAQs

Do you have any queries? If so, check out our frequently asked questions below – and if you still require answers, simply get in touch with the team at your local PJ Nicholls showroom.

Are electric cars very expensive?

Electric cars are now excellent value, with used vehicles in particular often less to buy than the equivalent regular vehicle.

Is it cheaper to run an EV?

Yes. It’s cheaper to top up an EV with electricity than it is to fill up a fuel car with petrol/diesel. What’s more, EVs are more affordable to maintain because an electric drivetrain has fewer working parts than a combustion engine, which means it’s less likely to go wrong.

How much does it cost to charge an EV?

It depends on the battery and the charging method.

Let’s take the Ford Mustang Mach-E as an example. Assuming its battery is at 20 per cent and is charged using a public connector, it’ll cost about £27 to achieve a 100% charge

How much does it cost to charge an EV at home?

Can you help with installing a charger at home or work?

Again, it depends on the make and model. A 0-100% charge for the Mustang Mach-E – using a three-pin power supply or dedicated wallbox – will cost approximately £26. We partner with Ratio EV to supply and install your home or work charger P J Nicholls and Ratio EV

Our aim is to secure the best deal you are eligible for from our panel of lenders. Lenders may pay a fixed commission to us for introducing you to them, calculated by reference to the vehicle model or amount you borrow. Different lenders may pay different commissions for such introductions, and Ford Credit also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement, all of which are set by the lender concerned.
