Plug-in hybrid cars (PHEVs) have become increasingly popular in recent years as more drivers seek to switch to electric motoring. It's easy to understand why – PHEVs offer the best of both worlds, with an engine for longer journeys and an electric battery for shorter trips around town. PHEVs can help reduce fuel consumption, lower running costs, and decrease CO2 emissions. The best plug-in hybrid cars offer all of this and more.
Today, there is a PHEV to suit the needs of nearly every driver, with small hatchbacks, large SUVs, and even sports cars available in plug-in hybrid versions. PHEVs are also excellent company cars, as their low CO2 emissions result in lower Benefit-in-Kind tax rates and cheaper company car tax bills. As a result, many companies are now encouraging their employees to choose PHEVs.
