Introduction of Plug In Hybrid Vehicle (PHEV)

Following the developments in the automotive industry, Car For You has been importing used and new Plug-In hybrid cars for the last several years. We have gained expertise in both selecting the right car and the appropriate checks that should be carried out before purchasing it, and of course all the procedures required to clear customs and issue the Greek registration certificate.

What are Plug-In Hybrid Cars?

They are cars that, in addition to the thermal engine (gasoline or diesel), also have one or more electric motors where they get energy from a sufficiently large battery to move as autonomous electric vehicles. This battery is charged either with the home charger they have or at any electric car charging station. The purely electric autonomy was initially around 50 km, while in the most modern ones it can reach and exceed 100 km. Their logic is to be able to cover daily transportation needs purely electrically (at minimal cost) while at the same time having no problem traveling long distances.

Why would someone buy Plug in hybrid car?

Plug-in Hybrid cars are vehicles that bridge the gap between conventional and purely electric propulsion, offering economy, reduced emissions, modern driving and great flexibility of use.

There is a great economic incentive as in our country a reduced registration fee regime has been enacted in relation to simple thermal vehicles. When the grams of carbon dioxide per kilometer produced by the car are less than 51, then they pay a quarter of the registration fee, while when it is 51 grams and above, then they pay half of the registration fee.

Why would someone choose to import used Plug in hybrid car?

The introduction of a plug-in hybrid car has a multitude of advantages, the main ones of which are:

The attractive price.

High quality.

The reliability of the market of the country from which it is imported through their excellent maintenance, complete service history, actual mileage and in many cases the extension of their factory warranty.

More choices, of course we are talking about much larger markets than ours, so someone can find exactly what they are looking for.

In terms of maintenance, they follow the maintenance of classic internal combustion cars, while the electric unit does not require any service.

Attention: A Plug-In hybrid car must be used as a Plug-In, in the event that we do not charge it at regular intervals we will have a problem with its batteries which may break down and not be covered by their warranty because the dealership can see whether the car was used properly in terms of charging it. If we do not have the ability to charge it, it is not recommended to buy such a car.
