Fiat Chrysler Automotive (FCA) stated that the Jeep Renegade plug-in hybrid (PHEV) would arrive in early 2020. In proof of that statement, Jeep unveiled a plug-in version of the Renegade on Tuesday at the Geneva Motor Show plus a surprise; a Jeep Compass PHEV.
Ford estimates the 26-mile all-electric range on the 2019 Ford Fusion Energi Titanium will handle the local driving needs for most people.
BMW continues its move forward to electrify its line-up with the official launch of the 2020 7-Series premium sedan that includes an all-new plug-in hybrid (PHEV) drivetrain.
The 2019 Ford Fusion Energi is going out with a bang. It’s a well-equipped PHEV that has all of the bells and whistles that you would expect on a luxury four-door sedan, but for the price of a compact car.

If you want to try an electric car, but have a limited budget, exploring the used EV market is the way to go.
Like last year, the 2018 Kia Optima PHEV is thousands of dollars less than other similar models in the segment including the Ford Fusion Energi.
The bottom line is FCA, often beat-up for not being as enthusiastic about electric drive, appears to have stealthily positioned itself to become one of the country’s leaders in electrification.
The brand once sold the popular Montero SUV here, so it’s not new territory. This 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV has that same strong, competent feel, but now with much greater efficiency.
If you drive less than 50 miles a day and charge regularly, the 2019 Chevrolet Volt is a great choice for all-electric driving, with the option to take off wherever you want using the gasoline range extender.
With numbers like that, it really shouldn’t be a surprise that GM would end the Chevrolet Volt’s production on March 1, 2019. We are sad to see it go.
