There are two main types of hybrid vehicles in the Hyundai Sonata model: the HEV and PHEV. HEV cars don’t have a charging port and there is no way you can charge the high-voltage battery with any external devices. The battery will be charged when you drive and then will use the collected electrical power to improve torque of your vehicle and also assist you during start-stop cycles.
The PHEV battery is larger and it can be charged with an external charger. In this video, I will tell you more about this function of the Sonata Hybrid model. I hope this helps you understand better how these cars work and what they need to bring you as much economy on fuel as possible.
