If you have been waiting for the plug-in electric car concept to come to a mid-size or larger vehicle, then your wait is almost over! Next year Honda will release its very own Plug In Hybrid as a midsize sedan. 
The Honda Plug-In Hybrid features a two-motor hybrid system. This system allows for all-electric driving during short frequent trips of 10-15 miles and a gasoline-electric mode for longer trips with a top speed of 62mph. The gasoline-electric mode is powered by an i-VTEC inline 4-cylinder Atkinson cycle engine which is a fuel-efficient 2.0 liter. During high speed cruising, the two-motor system also allows for an engine direct-drive mode, which helps to boost efficiency. The vehicle seamlessly moves between these three modes for maximum efficiently, without any help from the driver.
When it is time to charge the Honda Plug In Hybrid, it will only take around 2 to 2-1/2 hours with a 120 volt outlet or roughly half that with a 240 volt outlet. The reasonable charge time coupled with the hybrid engine should appeal to those who were previously uninterested in electric vehicles. The Honda Plug In Hybrid is a great choice for those wanting the environmentally friendly aspect of electric engines, paired with the functionality and range of a traditional gasoline vehicle.
