I have a PHEV right now.

It works for me, in my current situation, since I have free charging at work. I can go to and from work on battery for the entire commute, except for going up a freeway onramp or stepping on it too much to speed up for lane changes and whatnot.

My car is significantly heavier than the its ICE counterpart. So much so that suspension pieces like struts and shocks do not interchange between the ICE and PHEV models.

Not to mention that I have almost no trunk space compared to the ICE version. The spare tire well, most of the trunk floor and a portion along the back of the rear seats has battery packs so there is very limited space for cargo.

When my commute was a little longer, I got just over what a HEV would get for mileage. Not great when you consider the extra complexity, weight and lack of space in the vehicle.

And, now that gas has gone insane again, I am back to charging at home since it is cheaper for the electricity than it is for gas.
