Frequently Asked Questions about Plug-in Vehicles
How far can you drive between charges? (Electric cars & plug-in hybrids)
The Toyota RAV4 EV can go a maximum of 125 miles on one charge. The Tesla Roadster can drive more than 200 miles. The Tesla, like many of the new EVs coming, is capable of charging at any electrical plug anywhere.
Electric range of plug-in hybrids will vary depending on design, but the total range is similar to gas cars. A Hymotion A123 conversion kit gives a plug-in Prius about a 30-mile electric range and a total range the same as a conventional Prius. GM says its plug-in hybrid Chevy Volt will go 40 miles on one charge and more than 400 miles on a charge plus a tank of gas.
