Three-quarters of UK plug-in hybrids cannot use rapid chargers
Original: Three-quarters of UK’s popular plug-in hybrid cars unable to use rapid chargers
A Guardian report says three-quarters of the UK's most popular plug-in hybrid cars cannot use the country's rapid electric-vehicle chargers, highlighting a compatibility gap as charging networks expand and petrol prices push drivers toward electrified vehicles. The finding raises questions about how practical plug-in hybrids are for quick top-ups, and adds to debate over whether buyers should opt for fully electric cars instead.
Why now: Newly reported research highlights a practical limitation affecting a large share of UK plug-in hybrid owners at a time of high fuel costs and rapid EV infrastructure growth.
