How should fleet operators evaluate Chinese PHEVs for mixed city and highway use?

Fleet operators should assess total cost of ownership (TCO) including purchase price, fuel savings, and maintenance. For mixed city and highway use, consider:

• Electric range: 50–100 km EV range covers most city driving, reducing fuel costs.
• Hybrid fuel economy: Check combined consumption (e.g., 1.5–2.0 L/100 km in hybrid mode).
• Battery capacity: Larger battery (15–30 kWh) provides more EV-only km.
• Charging time: AC charging (4–6 hours) vs DC fast charging support.

Real-world data from Chinese NEDC/CLTC ratings can be benchmarked. Also evaluate warranty terms and parts availability. Starvia can provide model comparisons and fleet procurement guidance. For more details, visit our PHEV export page or fleet sourcing page.
