Some drivers might be tempted to look for the most fuel-efficient vehicle when shopping for a car. New Hyundai Hybrids and EVs at our dealership near Brandon are some of the best vehicles for those who want to purchase a green car that can compete with higher-end models regarding fuel economy.
Hybrid cars may switch between a gas engine and an electric motor or utilize the electric motor at higher speeds. The vehicle can use electric power only sometimes and only until its battery runs out of power. A gas engine kicks in once the electric power is depleted during the duration of the trip.
Unlike hybrid models, electric vehicles don't switch back and forth between gas and electric power. Instead, everything is done through the electric motor, powered by electricity from the grid or an onboard battery. Fast acceleration, lower emissions, and responsive handling are two of the many electric cars' advantages.
Plug-in Hybrid electric vehicles use both gas and electricity. They get their charge from an outlet. They can function like a hybrid if the battery gets too low and run solely on electric power if it has enough charge. The combined range you obtain is also excellent for traveling far distances outside Pearl.
Charging times vary depending of the type of charger used.
Level 1 chargers use a standard household outlet and charge about 2-5 miles of range per hour, making Level 1 a good choice for plugin hybrid vehicles but not battery electric vehicles.
Level 2 chargers can be installed at your home by a professional electrician and charge about 10-20 miles of range per hour. A good choice for any EV when charging overnight or all-day is possible.
Level 3 fast chargers are the most efficient and can be found at commercial locations. Level 3 can charge about 60-80 miles of range in about 20 minutes, making it a good choice for any EV when a quick charge is needed on the go.
For plugin hybrid vehicles a standard outlet (Level 1) will be enough for overnight charging. For battery electric vehicles, a Level 2 charger will require professional installation by a licensed electrician. If you live in an apartment or condo, consider talking with the property owner about installing a charger or use a nearby public charger. Talk to our sales staff to find out more about charging from home.
Most batteries will last between 100,000 and 200,000 miles when properly cared for. With battery technology continually advancing, that number will continue to increase. If you can keep your battery between 20% and 80% charged most days and avoid extremely hot temperatures, you can expect your maintenance to be minimal.
Using a combination of gas and electricity efficiently, the Hyundai hybrid models at our store can travel greater distances between fill-ups. Their cutting-edge electric technology is just as quick to react as their gas-only competitors.

Other advantages of owning an EV include:
This will vary depending on the local price of electricity and gas and where you are charging (at home or public charger), but most EV owners can expect to save on fuel cost. A recent Consumer Reports study found the “typical EV owner who does most of their fueling at home can expect to save an average of $800 to $1,000 a year on fueling costs over an equivalent gasoline-powered car.”

The average dollar savings over the lifetime of the vehicle is about $4,600.”
