They are complicated inefficient things with lots of moving parts. After decades of research and development and billions of dollars, they have become reasonably reliable with regular maintenance. But they don't compare in efficiency and reliability with brushless electric motors. Now the battery technology has improved so much, the days are numbered for ice cars. Although I think big oil and anti Ev politicians, lobby groups etc are trying to convince people not to buy them.

Someone should should make EV first hybrids, ones that have an EV drive train plus a small onboard generator to recharge the battery for those few times when you don't want to stop to charge on long journeys. Far simpler with all the benefits of a hybrid and less energy wasted as heat and friction and less maintenance. This could be a modification to existing cheap EVs. All you need is an extra charge port connection on the inside and an exhaust outlet. No point redesigning the engine so just use an off the shelf generator and even have it removable for when the range is enough but want extra space. I can see a camper van version being popular.

Another example is BYD's Qin DMI, with a green license plate (new energy vehicle) and a minimum pure electric driving distance of 60 km or more, even if it never charges and relies purely on fuel, the level of fuel consumption is even lower than the Prius.

BEV or New Energy Vehicle ? In China Hybrid and BEV are both considered as New Energy Vehicle. BYD is selling more Hybrid than BEV, how is it possible BEV reach 50% penetration within few month time ?

[@shafir2info]

New BYD Hybrids batteries are quite big, like 30-45kWh and also the fuel cost is way higher that charging even on the public chargers under the apartments. The slow, 3.5kW chargers are avail just everywhere.

PHEV? Hybrid MPG are still poor and still consume a lot of fuel.

[@kbmblizz1940]

Ppl too often dismiss other's issues bc they don't feel it. China is a big country, 3X more ppl than the USA. In countryside, rural regions, charging an EV is out of reach, home charger too $$$. For many others living in high rise, home charging is not ready while mechanics wages are reasonable, so for them BEV only isn't the right answer. The right answer is whatever works for that particular family. Their govt is encouraging transition to 🔋 powered transportation, some will /can go 100% BEV, some go for hybrids Just be glad hybrids gets 2X mpg more than same class ICE.

[@ZweiZwolf]

China has a population of 1.4 Billion vs 350 Million in USA, so China's population is about 4x bigger. China solved the charging problem by building HUGE numbers of chargers at every parking lot. If the BYD DM-i EVs were available, they'd do great in the US - 70+ miles for daily driving plus 100s of miles on petrol!

[@jogana6909]

Your knowledge of rural China is wrong. Farmers in China use a large number of low-speed three-wheeled electric vehicles. These tricycles are not counted as car sales. These tricycles are charged with the most common 220V socket, which is not fast, but it is enough.

Just wondering how true this is because majority live in units, how do they charge their car? do they send an extension cord from the window of the 50th floor to the footpath?

[@grid-panda]

As of March 2024, the private charging infrastructure configuration of approximately 6.745 million vehicles was sampled from vehicle companies within the China Charging Alliance, of which 6.403 million private charging piles were built with the vehicles. Most apartment units in China since the 21st century have above-ground or underground parking lots, and residents will buy or rent parking spaces. Major regulations in most cities in China stipulate that each unit under 70 square meters must have one parking space, and 1.2-1.5 for units above 70 square meters.According to national law, when you ask to install a charging box, the State Grid Company must install an electric meter for you free of charge. Most EV prices include the cost of installing the charging box, and you may need to pay part of the cost of running the cable from the meter to the parking space. This provision also applies to rented parking spaces.

[@ZweiZwolf]

China installed massive charging stations at every parking lot. I was in China and saw for myself. Banks of 20+, 50+ public chargers at the park, at the mall, in the apartment garage. The province of Guangdong alone has more public chargers than the entire USA.

[@jogana6909]

Many street parking spaces in China have charging piles. Charging piles are small and not as dangerous as oiling machine, so they are everywhere.

To be fair, I really don’t think hybrids should be included in “EV sales” they’re just not the same at all .. I mean the Jeep Wrangler Hybrid gets 21 miles per gallon in the US and qualifies for the $7,500 tax rebate it’s laughable and offensive and horrible that we are incentivizing hybrids here .. Europe has the right idea (and the UK) phasing out incentives for Hybrids .. they WERE great but it’s time to go full-EV the tech is there .. really wish the numbers wouldn’t combine EVs and Hybrids anymore it’s just not a helpful number

[@ZweiZwolf]

BYD's Dual Mode "hybrids" have 120+ km electric range - matching or beating 1st Gen Nissan Leaf EV. If a Nissan Leaf is an EV, then so is a BYD DM-i hybrid.

[@larryevans6739]

PHEV's are also counted in all the government statistics in the US for EV's. They also receive EV subsidies. Dates back to GM lobbying on the Volt.

[@ZweiZwolf]

@@larryevans6739 Yes, the Chevy Volt only had ~40 miles electric range -- enough for the typical American commute. If every American car was a plug-in hybrid with 40 miles electric range, even 20 miles electric range, the EV landscape would look very different today.

[@yggdrasil9039]

Sam uses the term EVs for the first 90 seconds then clarifies what he really means is PEVs (or NEVs). If BEVs (not PHEVs) hit 50% of Chinese auto market that is a major turning point. And PHEVs without DC fast charging are idiotic. I'd rather buy a plugless hybrid than lug around a battery you can't charge.

[@shafir2info]

There are no small batteries PHEV on the China market anymore. It's at least 30kWh.

[@thomaslesny61]

You charge at home and for this couple road trips a year you use gas. That's how vast majority of chinese PHEV are used - statistics not my opinion. It makes perfect sense if you have home charging( which most of chinese have even in apartments).

You give the impression that people race to buy Chinese brands because the cars are 'superior' engineering. They are not. The CCP subsidizes the Chinese companies to make them inexpensive and produced in unsustainable volumes. The EVs are cheap to buy and cheap in quality. You never mention this unfair trading practice and act as if other countries should accept dumping. Why are you so in the tank for the CCP who does not believe in a rules base order of international trading? Are you so in love with the idea of EVs that you are blind to everything else?
