the planning is also minimal la. especially in the city and mostly within your routinely travelled routes it's not so much of an issue, i'm sure you as an owner would know. the planning is mostly long distance travel.

it's usually those that don't own an EV and have no idea where and what chargers are around that have the range anxiety

Got one g30 530e owner asking his battery degrading too much heading 5th year. From purely battery driven up to 50km when brand new to 15km on 5th year. How Tesla able to make theirs longer life ?

Let’s compare a vehicle with a liquid cooling system to one with a passive air cooling system: the 2015 Tesla Model S and the 2015 Nissan Leaf, respectively. The Leaf has an average degradation rate of 4.2%, while the Model S is 2.3%. Good thermal management means better protection against degradation.

there study conducted in Malaysia and it show that Hybrid is the most suitable at the moment in Malaysia.
that shd tell all

My mild hybrid is 12 years old, 225,000km. I feel the battery is still good. I can't tell you in numbers what's the life left on it but it's feels normal. To answer your question, I really dunno.

should have try the full battery mode and check what the real usage range now

my car cant run full battery mode lol

Try them, why not?

this is a good idea, then assume one have their own charger at home ....

most 530e owners i know hardly or don't charge the battery. which kills it faster

The UK stopped tax incentives on PHEVs citing: “The evidence was very clear: owners of plug-in hybrids were not plugging them in, negating the environmental benefits and undermining the incentives.”

“Several factors play a role in drivers’ decision to plug-in their PHEV or not, including vehicle characteristics and the availability and cost of charging at various locations,” a study of California PHEV owners states. “Higher home electricity prices, lower electric driving range, lower electric motor power to vehicle weight ratios, lower potential cost savings from charging, and living in an apartment or condo, among other factors are related to not plugging in a PHEV.”

For the uninitiated PHEV ≠ EV
Those assuming they are the same shows that they have to do more reading.

Got highly interested with used XC90 which also PHEV run on batteries.
But seriously with these depreciated value on PHEV cars, you know things are not simple as ABC.

XC90 a buddy of mine using
1st issue - airmatic - replaced with Titan aftermarket

when he was fixing the aftermarket susp. another xc90 was there to perform a e.motor swap @ RM25k not sure brand new or halfcut

hence for XC90, worth buying if you have the dough for the maintenance

volvo xc90 batteries are not that expensive i think got like 6 or 8 batteries inside the pack. u can replace the ones that are failing. if not mistaken about 6k for one battery. lasts quite long too from what i've seen.

airmatic if fail can repair. which doesn't last that long maybe a year or 2 at best or replace and peace of mind for the new 3-5 years
