Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle. Sometimes called "Extended Range Electric Vehicles". TLDR: has a smallish battery you can plug in and charge that gives you something like 30 to 50 miles of range. Then a gas engine to use when the battery is low.

It's a good option for anyone who has limited daily driving and the ability to charge overnight. Sadly they're pretty rare. People will complain about "paying for 2 drivetrains" but cost-wise and feature-wise they make a lot of sense for people with occasional needs to drive longer distances.

If you search on cars.com it's a filter option under "fuel type". For my zip code there's currently 3.9K hybrid, 2.4K electric and only 19(!) plug-in hybrid listed.

Plugin Hybrid Electric Vehicle. it has a gas engine and an ev motor. the ev gets charged through regenerating breaking our through a charger. you get the best of both worlds.

You sure have strong opinions for someone who knows almost nothing about the topic

I have one of those and it happily does 250 kW at supported chargers. Takes me 20 minutes or so to go from 15% to 80%.
