I think most here have no clue of what makes a PHEV work. It’s much more sophisticated than a BEV. It has everything a BEV has including a way to integrate the engine’s output with the battery and electric motors’ output. As in the BEV, the motors also act as generators and do regenerative braking, along with charging the battery. Plus the plug-in charger that BEVs have.
Anyone who believes this meme has any truth to it is misinformed. Don’t believe me? Watch this.
