...and those of us who are concerned about range limits of purely electric vehicles appreciate the column of information about PHEV vs. BEV. My wife just went shopping for a car this week, and learned about the failure of many 'electric' vehicles to supply a spare or run-flat tires in lieu of a spare.
Within the past month, we were on holiday in Europe using a PHEV Mercedes loaned to us, and we were almost stranded by a tire encountering a road hazard that left the tire flat on a Sunday afternoon...only someone in the nighborhood with ability to patch the tire got us back on the road rather than stranded over night. Stupid car manufacturers rely on gunk-in-trunk that does not work for all flats.
