A '''plug-in hybrid electric vehicle''' ('''PHEV''') or simply '''plug-in hybrid''' is a type of [[hybrid electric vehicle]] equipped with a rechargeable [[electric-vehicle battery|battery pack]] that can be directly replenished via a [[power cord|charging cable]] plugged into an external [[electric power]] source, in addition to charging internally by its on-board [[internal combustion engine]]-powered [[electric generator|generator]]. While PHEVs are predominantly [[passenger car]]s, there are also plug-in hybrid variants of [[sports car]]s, [[commercial vehicle]]s, [[van]]s, [[pickup truck|utility truck]]s, [[bus]]es, [[train]]s, [[motorcycle]]s, [[mopeds]], [[military vehicle]]s and boats.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Hybrid boats to revolutionise sustainable river travel |url=https://www.thamesclippers.com/news/uk-transport-gets-greener-with-arrival-of-first-hybrid-high-speed-passenger-ferry |access-date=2023-09-29 |website=www.thamesclippers.com}}</ref>
Similar to [[battery electric vehicle]]s (BEVs), plug-in hybrids can use centralized generators of [[renewable energy]] (e.g. [[solar power|solar]], [[wind power|wind]] or [[hydroelectric]]) to be largely emission-free, or a fossil plant in which case they displace [[greenhouse gas emissions]] from the car [[tailpipe]] [[exhaust gas|exhaust]] to the [[power station]]. As opposed to conventional hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), PHEVs generally have a larger battery pack that can be recharged (theoretically) from anywhere with access to the [[electrical grid]], offering enhanced [[energy efficiency (physics)|energy efficiency]] and cost-effectiveness when compared to relying solely on the on-board generator. Additionally, PHEVs can support longer and more frequent [[charge-depleting|all-electric range]] driving, and their [[electric motor]]s often have higher power output and [[torque]], are more responsive in acceleration, and overall have lower [[operating cost]]s. Although a PHEV's battery pack is smaller than that of all-electric vehicles of the same weight, as it must accommodate its combustion engine and [[hybrid vehicle drivetrain|hybrid drivetrain]], it provides the added flexibility of reverting to the use of its [[
