Combining a petrol engine with a larger capacity battery, the Kia Plug-in hybrids can be re-chargeable from an external outlet, making it more economical to drive.
Kia has various models available as a plug-in hybrid such as The Kia Niro, Sportage and Sorento.
With a larger battery, a Kia hybrid plug-in charges by plugging it in at home or at one of the many public charge points to give you decent 30-mile electric range.
When the electric range has ended, the car will automatically switch to engine power until the battery has recharged.
The battery also charges when decelerating or going downhill, giving you optimal performance of both the engine and electric motor. In fact, when fully charged you can make short trips without using any petrol.
