What Is a Hybrid Vehicle?
Hybrids are vehicles that still depend on a combustion engine and gasoline for propulsion. However, these vehicles also have an electric motor that provides a boost to the traditional engine. When you are accelerating or traveling faster, the electric motor increases the vehicle's power without consuming as much fuel as a conventional combustion motor. The primary benefit of a hybrid is the improved gas mileage. However, the electric motor also functions as a generator to store energy created when the brakes are applied to slow or stop the vehicle. The Jeep Wrangler 4xe and Cherokee 4xe are both examples of fuel-efficient hybrids.Going All-Electric
All-electric, or EVs, use absolutely no gasoline and create zero emissions. These vehicles are powered only by energy stored in sizeable onboard battery packs. The range of an EV is limited by the capacity of the battery packs, which once deterred many buyers. However, in recent years, the storage capacity has increased significantly, as has the number of public charging stations across the country. For example, the Chevy Bolt boasts an impressive range of up to 259 miles in the city. As a result, most EV owners choose to install a charging station in their homes.Charging Your New Hybrid/EV
Many buyers opt to install a Level 1 charging station in their homes for overnight charging. These units require nothing more than a dedicated circuit for the outlet they are plugged into. Level 2 charging stations can also be installed at your residence but will require additional wiring and installation by a licensed electrician in most cases. Level 2 is a faster smart charge than the very basic and slower Level 1. Fast charging can also be found at public charging stations that are Level 2 or Level 3. The Level 3 is the quickest option and can top off many EVs in just a bit over an hour.What to Consider Before Going Green
Drivers looking to reduce their carbon footprint and impact on the environment will meet their goal with either a hybrid or EV. The hybrid is a better option for drivers who cover a larger area each day or drive in remote areas with fewer charging options. The EV is a perfect get-around town car for occasion drivers or those who enjoy a shorter commute. In addition, these vehicles offer a very affordable way to see the country along major highways that provide a multitude of charging stations.

Affordability: Beyond the advantages offered by RAM trucks and vans, when you go electric there are some greater advantages like incentives, rebates and credits.
Charging networks: As the electric movement has exploded in the last several years, there is a greater development of electric infrastructure being offered like three levels of charging.
- Level 1: plugged into everyday 120-volt AC outlets to top off charges when needed.
- Level 2: Simple to use professionally-installed available chargers that can be hardwired or plugged into a 240-volt outlet-ideal for fully charging your battery overnight.
- Level 3: Also called a DC Fast Charger, these powerful high-speed chargers are found at public charging stations all across the country, and they are the fastest charging options available.
Range: Today’s RAM trucks and van offer a range of up to 350 miles on a single charge, but if you get the extended range battery this increases your range to up to 500 miles and coming up for the 2025 model year, the new Ramcharger 1500 can provide up to 690-miles of electric range.
