WIRED's Guide to Buying a Used Plug-In Hybrid

Consider a newer used plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) for better battery range and smoother propulsion.

PHEV batteries can be costly to replace but are generally reliable if properly maintained.

PHEVs are more problematic than gasoline or hybrid cars, necessitating careful consideration when buying.
