Is EREV a new name for "hybrid"?
The concept of using gasoline powered engine to generate electricity, change batteries,
and drive by using electric motors is not new:
it was used for long time on diesel locomotives / trains,
and recently on Chevy Volt car (discontinued).
While it makes sense to reduce "range anxiety", it is also increasing complexity, cost, and weight.
For small vehicles "pure" EV is more effective, or it soon will be, thanks to battery tech improvements.
Now, with USA energy policy being focused on traditional fuels, and market on large vehicles,
using EREV is better than no using it. Better than nothing. Will it be cost-effective?
