The PHEV or the plug-in hybrid models provide a great way to switch from gasoline to electric because it combines the best of both worlds. The newly launched model is the BMW X5 xDrive45e PHEV which has some of the best specifications you would have witnessed in recent times.

Under the hood, the car is powered by a 3.0-liter 6-cylinder turbocharged engine. As the name suggests, it runs on a plug-in hybrid engine which when runs out of electric power allows you to easily fill it up with gasoline. The advantage is that there is no need to stop anywhere to charge or worry about long-distance travel because it supports both forms of power to stay on the move.
