There is a difference. Toyota is better. Let’s talk about the advantages first: it can be green-licensed, has no traffic restrictions, is currently exempt from purchase tax, has subsidies, and is exempt from vehicle and ship tax. It has the advantages of both gasoline vehicles and electric vehicles, and is in line with new energy policies. Pure electric vehicles can be used for urban transportation ( 50~80 kilometers of range), because the two power systems, coupled together, are generally power monsters. They start quickly and have sufficient power to accelerate and overtake. A 1.5t car can catch up with a car with a displacement of 3.0 or more. In the economy mode, at low speed The cost of using electricity and high-speed oil and electricity can be controlled very low. Because the power is sufficient, there is no delay in overtaking on the highway. The speed is up immediately when the accelerator is pressed, and the acceleration is smooth and smooth! A car costing more than 100,000 yuan or more than 200,000 yuan can drive a car with the feeling of a large-displacement luxury car.
Let’s talk about features, expensive and heavy! Domestic brands generally cost at least 150,000 yuan, and SUVs are more expensive. It is normal for them to be 50,000 to 100,000 yuan more than gasoline models of the same brand! The reason is simple. It has a complete gasoline power system (including engine, gearbox, and fuel tank), and it also has a relatively large-capacity battery and a high-power electric motor (the two combined weigh at least four to five hundred kilograms). The two systems will naturally be expensive. If the two systems are sold separately, it will be a gasoline vehicle and an electric vehicle. A side benefit is that if one power system fails, there is another system. Generally, you will not lie down waiting for rescue. In places with abundant rain in the south, you will not be flooded and wait for rescue (you can use pure electricity as a submarine, that is) It's a bit exaggerated, but its ability to wade through water is definitely better than that of a gasoline car).
In addition, there are two consequences of the heavy body. The fuel consumption is naturally slightly higher when using a pure gasoline engine. It also brings a benefit: it is very stable to drive and will not float! If you compete with other cars, you will get the advantage. Just imagine two iron boxes (one fat and one thin), one is almost solid and heavy (the battery is usually on the chassis), and the other has iron + plastic skin. If they compete with each other, who will get the advantage? , it is clear at a glance who suffers. Should you prioritize protecting others or protecting yourself? Of course, some friends say that cars are for driving, not for crashing. This depends on demand and mentality. The skin is thin and light, and it does save money to repair and drive. According to this logic, electric bicycles do not need skin. It saves money and there are many people who need it. Since it is called a plug-in hybrid, it means that an external charging power supply is required to achieve the ultimate energy saving goal. However, plug-in hybrid vehicles, like electric vehicles, generally can be charged quickly or slowly. If you really don’t have the conditions for charging, you can also rely on your own gasoline engine to generate electricity. The economic benefits will be worse.
