WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A HYBRID AND A PLUG-IN HYBRID (PHEV)?

HYBRID

  • A vehicle is a hybrid if it’s 100% gasoline-fueled but doesn’t rely solely on its gasoline engine for propulsion (defined as the action of driving or pushing forward). Hybrids have electric motors that sometimes power the car in order to delay the gasoline engine and save fuel. At times, both systems work together for added power. Electric motors function as generators when you press the brake.
  • Hybrids get energy at the same time from a gasoline engine and an electric motor. The engine and motor work together to power the car. The engine also uses gasoline to help recharge the battery which powers the electric motor.
  • Hybrids use gasoline engines to keep batteries charged as you drive. There is no need to plug them in.

PLUG-IN HYBRID (PHEV)

  • PHEV’s use a gasoline engine and an electric motor, but in different ways. A plug-in hybrid primarily uses its electric motor, which is powered by the battery. A plug-in hybrid won’t use gas until the battery runs out of power. A plug-in hybrid uses its engine as a backup plan.
  • PHEV’s can be plugged into a 120-volt household outlet or a 240-volt charging unit (or wall charger). A plug in-hybrid can be driven on pure electric power without burning any fuel.
  • A PHEV has a much larger battery and a means to recharge it using an external power source. A PHEV acts like an electric vehicle with the gasoline engine not being used when it’s battery has to charge. The engine comes on when the battery runs down which allows the vehicle to continue as a regular gasoline hybrid. It also uses regenerative braking to save fuel.

Charging Your Cadillac EV: How and Where?

Greet the day with a Cadillac-estimated more than 300 miles of expected range on a full charge. The LYRIQ will offer at-home Level 2 (AC) charging rates of up to 19.2 kW and DC fast-charging for public charging capability with rates up to 190 kW, freeing you to revel in the moment—and to let go of range anxiety.

Using the DC fast-charge for public charging, you can receive up to 76 miles of range in about just 10 minutes, and up to 195 miles of range in about 30 minutes, ensuring that you don’t have to wait around long for your Cadillac to charge.

Maintenance/Service of Your Electric Cadillac

Cadillac EV Future Battery Information

Cadillac EV
Cadillac will use a structural element of the body chassis system, EV Battery Platform. EV Battery Platform enables a near 50/50 weight distribution of the vehicle and a lower center of gravity, which together results in a vehicle that’s sporty, responsive and allows for spirited driving.

FEDERAL TAX CREDIT

State incentive programs for Electric vehicles vary in their scope and applicability. While tax incentives are most frequently mentioned, rebates, HOV access, toll reduction, and sales tax exemptions are also offered. Please consult your knowledgeable financial planner or tax specialist to determine how the state and federal incentives may apply to you.

You Can Qualify for a Federal Tax Credit on New All-Electric and Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles
