Like many issues and discussion topics today, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) have become a divisive concept within the electric vehicle industry. Not enough range: Many plug-in hybrids have minimal electric range of around 20 or less miles. Black and white. Good versus bad. There seem to be a few people in the middle.

There has been much discussion for over thirty years or more around the use of hydrogen fuel cells as an alternative to the internal combustion engine. Fuel cells had been promoted in some sectors as the best alternative to the internal combustion engine. It is important to realize that a fuel cell car is actually an electric car.
