The study found that TCO for electric and diesel medium-duty urban delivery trucks were similar. The electric truck is relatively more cost-effective on the NYCC and when VKT demand is higher. Cost-competitiveness of the electric truck diminishes in drive cycles with higher average speeds. Credit: ACS, Lee et al.

Plug-in hybrid vehicles can be plugged into the electric grid – such as a normal 120 volt household outlet - to boost mileage. This will allow the vehicles to operate on emissions-free battery power, reducing the amount of fuel utilized and significantly decreasing the release of harmful pollutants, including greenhouse gases.

Most Americans are aware that President Biden wants the purchase of gas-powered vehicles banned by 2035. So, if you’re going to buy a brand new vehicle at that point, you’ll have no option but to buy an electric car if Congress puts the ban into legislation. The key is to invest in an electric car that can offer such a range.
