These are the 5 plug-in hybrid cars with the greatest autonomy that you can buy right now

When a little over a year ago, we were compiling the list of luxury SUVs with the greatest autonomy in 100% electric mode, those that achieved the ZERO sticker, which is achieved by exceeding 100 km without resorting to fossil fuel consumption, the options available hardly exceeded fifty and, preparing this compilation on the Plug-in hybrid cars with greater autonomy We see that the list is not only growing with more and more models, but also with more kilometers available in EV mode under its belt.

And in just over two or three years, the panorama of the PHEV, that is, hybrid vehicles with its own electrical energy storage system that allows recharging during use and, even more, the replacement of electricity externally by connecting it to an electrical outlet, its numbers have increased in every sense and, where, in addition to autonomy, where its greatest importance is in the number of sales which add up month by month, increasing significantly after each monthly inventory.

At the end of this ranking, the conclusion is clear, a brand dominates the PHEV market And, among the plug-in hybrid cars with greater autonomy there is a star brand, with a star, because it is the brand of the star, but let's see which ones they are:

1. Mercedes-Benz GLE 350 e 4Matic

Starting with the king, among the aspirants to the scepter in terms of PHEVs with greater autonomy In terms of mileage, the one with the highest number of homologated kilometers is a Mercedes-Benz and it is an SUV. That is, a luxury vehicle, fashionable and joining the new era of electrified mobility, marking the greatest distance in electric mode at the moment.

Thus, the Mercedes-Benz GLE 350 e 4Matic has almost a hundred kilometers to enjoy without using a drop of gasoline, in fact, with its 99 km it is close to being reached by the second vehicle that is closest to being considered an electric car for everyday use, its brother, the Mercedes-Benz 350 e 4Matic also Long-range plug-in hybrid SUV.

And if, as far as plug-in hybrid cars with greater autonomy are concerned, we have indicated that the star brand is the queen, the second vehicle with the longest range of autonomy in electric mode It is the diesel-powered variant of the same vehicle, not the gasoline-powered variant, that is, the Mercedes-Benz GLE diesel, hybrid and plug-in.

The diesel SUV offers, for its electric unit, a range without consuming diesel for 98 km, that is, practically, equals the gasoline variant in useful value but with the wide difference, and not just in terms of consumption, that comes with using a vehicle that uses the black or green hose dispenser, but which has the same connector to do the same when it comes to recharging its electrical storage system.

3. Bmw X5 Xdrive45e Iperformance

SUVs dominate the market and also the table in terms of Hybrid and plug-in cars with more miles to go than electric cars by its own concordance between the law of supply and demand, or vice versa, but, breaking the hejemony of Mercedes-Benz, its neighbor and archrival BMW bursts in to position an all-terrain vehicle among the top 3 plug-in hybrid cars with the greatest autonomy, such as the BMW X5 Xdrive45e Iperformance.

This SUV, although it is positioned on the top step of the podium of our list, is the most powerful of those present since, with almost 400 HP available (394 HP) and the most expensive, from 81.550 euros, it offers 87 km of driving in the caution that electric energy supposes for propellants of this nature.

4. Mercedes-Benz A 250 e sedan

SUVs are eating up the cake and the compact portion is increasingly losing a bite to all kinds of all-terrain vehicles. Only the flagship models are keeping up with the latest trends, but not without jumping on the electrification bandwagon as it has done. one of the best in its segment but in its body as a sedan since the Mercedes-Benz A 250 e sedan is fourth on our list of plug-in hybrid cars with the greatest electric autonomy.

With 75 km available circulating like the Compact electric sedan with greater autonomy, even better than the compact version of the model, which, if it weren't for the recently marketed all-terrain vehicle that we will discuss below, would close the top 5 thanks to having 73 km despite the fact that hatchback It is 20 kg lighter than the sedan.

5. Suzuki Across 2.5 PHEV GLX

And, while we wait for the Toyota RAV4 Plug-in to announce its electric autonomy, its twin brother stands out not only as one of the plug-in hybrid cars with the greatest autonomy but also one of those that offer a better relationship between price and autonomy since, with the start of its commercialization, the Suzuki Across plug-in hybrid price makes it proposed as one of the best options within the PHEV SUVs of the moment.

Once we know the approved autonomy and the Toyota RAV4 plug-in hybrid priceWe are sure that more than one customer of one or another model will have a major headache thinking about which one to buy.
