We trialled a Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV ,the original keeper hated it. He plugged it in every night he was at home. The electric range was about 20 miles then it became an inefficient petrol with a tiny fuel tank. He covered over 1/3 of the country so he was refilling all the time.
It’s battery kept going flat and the RAC weren’t trained to work on PHEVS so he was stranded a few times.
After 2 years he changed to a CrewCab, we passed it on to someone with a smaller area for the last 2 years of the lease (he never charged it).
The experiment was an expensive failure.
