Kia Hybrid Cars are Gas Powered and Battery Powered

Fuel conscious drivers will love our Kia hybrid, HEV, cars, like the 2024 Niro hybrid, 2024 Sportage Hybrid, and 2024 Sorento Hybrid. Unlike fully electric vehicles, you never have to plug in a hybrid. Instead, it uses gasoline and a battery pack charged by regenerative braking. When you press on the brake pedal, the gasoline engine provides the power to the generator, which then charges the battery.

Because hybrids have a smaller battery pack, they have a much shorter electric driving range than a plug-in hybrid. But, for drivers who do a lot of stop and go driving, a hybrid is a great choice. They’re most fuel efficient the more you hit the brake, so city driving provides better fuel efficiency than highway driving.

Plug-In Hybrid Cars Offer Great Fuel Economy

If you want fuel efficiency and fewer emissions but aren’t ready to go all electric, take a look at plug-in hybrids, PEVs. Kia’s vehicles, like the 2024 Kia Sportage Plug-in Hybrid or 2024 Kia Sorento Plug-in Hybrid, run on battery power, and the gas engine takes over when the battery gets low. But, plug-in hybrids do require battery charging daily for the best battery effectiveness.

When you drive a plug-in hybrid, there’s no range anxiety because when you run out of battery power, your gas engine will kick in. Because they can run on electricity, plug-ins are great for driving around town. And, if you’re taking a longer trip, you have the advantage of using electricity without having to worry about recharging along the way.

Kia Battery Electric Cars Are Helpful to the Environment

Drivers who want an electric vehicle, EV, that runs solely on electric power with no emissions, will like the 2024 Kia EV6, 2024 Kia EV9, or 2024 Kia Niro EV. An electric vehicle’s battery pack is much bigger than those of the hybrid or plug-in hybrid, and it requires daily charging. Charging an EV to about 80% rather than a full charge every day is best as overcharging will shorten the battery life.

An EV is great for a daily commute less than 30 miles or someone who doesn’t take a lot of long road trips. Since electric vehicles require daily charging, it’s beneficial to have a faster Level 2 home charger. And, without a bulky gas engine and transmission, an EV offers additional cargo space and more room in the cabin.
