Understanding Hybrid Types: Unlocking Efficiency and Performance

When it comes to hybrid types, there are range of options to suit your needs. Let us guide you through the different types available:

  1. Mild Hybrid (MHEV): Mild hybrids utilize a small electric motor to assist the conventional engine, resulting in improved fuel efficiency and reduced emissions. The electric motor supports the engine during acceleration and deceleration, providing a seamless driving experience with enhanced efficiency.
  2. Full Hybrid (HEV): Full hybrids combine an electric motor and a conventional engine. The electric motor can power the vehicle independently at low speeds, while the engine kicks in when more power is required. The hybrid system intelligently switches between the two power sources to optimize fuel efficiency and minimize emissions.
  3. Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV): Plug-in hybrids offer the flexibility of electric driving with the backup of a conventional engine. These vehicles have a larger battery pack that can be charged from an external power source. With a fully charged battery, PHEVs can run on electric power alone for a significant distance, reducing emissions and fuel consumption. When the battery is depleted, the vehicle seamlessly switches to the conventional engine.

Decoding Charging Connectors: Simplifying Your Charging Experience

Charging your electric vehicle has never been easier. EVs come equipped with a variety of charging connectors to provide convenience and flexibility. Here are some common types:

  1. Type 1 Connector: This connector is commonly used in Japanese and Korean vehicles (Just like the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV). It is a single-phase connector that allows for AC charging and is widely used across the UK.
  2. Type 2 Connector (Mennekes): The Type 2 connector is widely used in the UK. It supports both single-phase and three-phase charging and is compatible with most public charging stations.
  3. CHAdeMO Connector: The CHAdeMO connector is primarily used for DC fast charging at motorway service stations and other public charge points. It enables high-power charging, allowing for rapid replenishment of the battery.
  4. CCS Connector (Combined Charging System): The CCS connector combines AC and DC charging capabilities in one plug. It is widely used in Europe and supports both fast DC charging and regular AC charging.

Our knowledgeable team will demystify the world of charging and help you understand the connectors specific to the electric vehicle you choose, ensuring you can charge your new vehicle hassle-free, wherever you go.
