Plug-in hybrid vehicles offer the ideal blend of efficiency and performance—perfect for navigating life on Long Island. Whether you’re running daily errands in Huntington or heading out for a weekend escape near Cold Spring Harbor, a plug-in hybrid gives you the freedom to drive on electric power alone for short trips, with the added confidence of a gasoline engine for longer drives.

How Do Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles Work?

A plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) features both a traditional gasoline engine and a rechargeable electric motor. Unlike standard hybrids, PHEVs can be plugged in to charge at home or at public stations—giving you the ability to drive on electric power alone for extended distances before switching to gasoline when needed.
