Hybrid and Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles Near Wilmington, DE

Hybrid and Plug-in Hybrid vehicles are great options if you are hesitant to ditch the gas engine entirely. The difference between a hybrid and a plug-in hybrid is usually best summed up by which engine is prioritized. You can think of a hybrid as a gas vehicle with a backup electric engine that takes over automatically when you are driving efficiently. Hybrid vehicles charge themselves with the energy created by the motor, so you don't have to plug them in.

On the other hand, a plug-in hybrid is more of an electric vehicle with a backup gas engine. You should plug in your vehicle to recharge the battery, and the gas engine will kick in if your charge runs out or to give you a boost. There are several Kia hybrid and plug-in hybrid options:

  • Niro SUV Hybrid
  • Kia Sportage Hybrid
  • Sorento Hybrid
  • Niro Plug-in Hybrid
  • Kia Sportage Plug-in Hybrid
  • Kia Sorento Plug-in Hybrid
