The latest version of the hybrid vehicle is a plug-in model. These vehicles can recharge their batteries not only from the onboard engine but from household electricity as well. The advantage of this system is that it is possible to keep the batteries charged without having to use the gasoline powered engine. This enables the vehicle owner to use cheaper household electricity rather than expensive gas to run the vehicle.
