Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

The Leaf was such a big name for a while and then Hyundai and Kia came with better cars and really changed the landscape.

Don't own a PHEV (honestly a terrible idea for where I live) but I have worked in fuel for years:

Also, PHEVs will periodically force the gas engine on for that very reason I'm pretty sure
