Plug-In hybrid technology | Škoda New Zealand

A new way to drive

Plug-in hybrid vehicles, known as PHEVs, give you the best of both worlds. By combining an electric motor with a traditional combustion engine, they dramatically reduce fuel consumption and emissions.

Drive it your way

A plug-in hybrid could be the perfect alternative if you don’t feel ready to make the jump to a fully electric car. For shorter journeys a PHEV can use just electricity, however you still have the petrol engine to fall back on if you need to clock up more miles.

Three driving modes

Regular motorway drives, short urban commutes or long one off trips - with three distinct driving modes our plug-in-hybrid models offer flexibility to suit all types of drive.

E-mode

When using e-mode your PHEV will drive purely on electricity. The Superb iV in e-mode will give you a range of up to 60kms* and a top speed of 86mph.

Sport-mode

Hit sport-mode and feel the full power of your PHEV. This mode fully engages both the electric and petrol engines to give you a faster, more dynamic performance.

Hybrid-mode

Hybrid-mode switches between both engines depending on the situation. The electronics optimise the balance between the petrol engine and the electric motor.

A healthy environment

There’s no disputing the environmental benefits of eMobility: lowering our reliance on fossil fuels while producing less air pollution as we travel. People in cities with higher concentrations of electric cars also enjoy a much lower degree of noise pollution.

The value of going electric

eMobility isn’t only about saving the environment—it also comes with a healthy amount of savings for the wallet. With lower fuel and maintenance costs than cars with combustion engines, electric vehicles present a far more attractive value for owners.

Regenerative braking

When you drive a plug-in hybrid it makes the most of wasted energy. The energy created by braking is converted and stored in the Li-ion battery for later use.

Disclaimers

The Worldwide Harmonized Light-Duty Vehicle Test Procedure (WLTP) is designed to provide a standardised measurement and enables the consumer to make reliable comparisons between vehicles in terms of energy (fuel and/or electricity) consumption, emissions, and electric vehicle range. However, it should be noted that the results of this test may not accurately reflect the actual fuel consumption, emissions, or range that a driver might experience in the real world. Actual results may vary depending on various factors such as driving style, road conditions, temperature, weather, vehicle load, and maintenance. Therefore, the WLTP results should be considered as an indicator of the vehicle's performance and not as a guarantee of the actual energy consumption, emissions, or range that a driver will experience in real-world driving conditions, or for making a vehicle-to-vehicle comparison. All WLTP test values are provided in accordance with New Zealand Land transport Rule: Vehicle Efficiency and Emissions Data 2022.
