Little by little, as this technology becomes more affordable, it will reach more brands… And if SUVs continue to be as popular as they have been until now and their sales continue to increase, they will surely be the first to have it.

The Best Plug in Hybrid SUVs in 2022

For now we have grouped them all in this buying guide, although in the future, if the bet continues (something that we predict seeing the trickle of models that do not stop appearing), it is possible that we will divide it.

And it is that, throughout this year, the list that we show below will be expanded with many plug-in hybrid variants of SUV.

Audi Q3 45 TFSIe quattro

The Audi Q3 45 TFSI quattro was added to the Audi Q3 2019 range at the beginning of 2021. It boasts the Zero environmental label that allows its use in areas restricted to low-emission models.

Its propulsion system is the well-known one already used by other models of the Volkswagen Group. It combines a 1.4 TFSI engine with an electric one to achieve a combined total power of 245 hp. It has an S-Tronic dual-clutch automatic gearbox and quattro all-wheel drive.

The electrical part of the Audi Q3 45 TFSIe (which is also offered with the Sportback bodywork) is handled by a lithium-ion battery with a 13 kWh capacity with which it homologates 51 km of electric range. It includes a 3.7 kW on-board charger, with which in just under four hours it could be fully recharged in the appropriate outlet.

With hardly any aesthetic differences, the most notable difference with respect to the variants with a combustion engine is the malatero, which greatly reduces its capacity, going from 510 to 380 liters . It is possible to choose it with a base finish (very well equipped, with LED headlights, alloy wheels, touch screen multimedia system, parking sensors) and complete it with the Advanced line, which adds more refined elements or the sportier S-Line and BlackLine.

Audi Q3 Sportback 45 TFSI Quattro

The Audi Q3 Sportback 2020 was added to the range of the conventional Q3 offering a more sporty cut body. And since it has a Plug in Hybrid SUVs version, the Q3 45 TFSIe Sportback, which achieves the Zero emissions label. It costs around 3,000 euros more than the conventional bodywork.

Its propulsion system is identical to that of many other Group models. Thanks to the combination of a supercharged gasoline engine, the 1.4 TFSI, and an electric one, 245 hp of power is reached. It has quattro all-wheel drive and power is sent through a dual-clutch automatic gearbox.

Under the floor of the vehicle there is a 13.0 kWh lithium-ion battery with which it homologates an electric range of 50 kilometers. It does not have the possibility of charging it with direct current, but it does have a 3.7 kW on-board charger, which would recharge it in 3 hours 45 minutes. This battery subtracts space from the trunk, which remains at 380 liters (up to 1,250 liters if the rear seats are folded down), by 530 liters of the conventional variant.

Its price is high, but in its favor it should be noted that it has complete standard equipment, with elements such as LED headlights and dual-zone automatic climate control at no cost. The options to improve it are many. The brand proposes three equipment lines on the base equipment, called Advanced, S-Line and Black Line, which also change the aesthetics of the vehicle.

Audi Q5 TFSI Quattro

The Audi Q5 2021 stands out for incorporating two versions with plug-in hybrid technology into its range. It is available with up to four different finishes: basic, Advanced, S line and Black line, although the most powerful only has the last two.

Both versions combine the 265 hp 2.0 TFSI four-cylinder petrol engine (the one mounted on the Audi Q5 45 TFSI) with an electric one integrated into the seven-speed S tronic gearbox. In the Q5 50 TFSIe it delivers 299 hp of total combined power which, in the case of the 55 TFSIe, reaches 367 hp to be able to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.3 seconds.

The electric drive is powered by energy stored in a 14.4 kWh capacity battery. With it fully charged, it can travel up to 62 km in 100% electric mode and achieves the ZERO label. In a domestic outlet it is possible to fully charge it in about six hours, a time that is reduced to two and a half hours with a 32-amp outlet. It is possible to carry out fast recharges in alternating current at a power of up to 7.3 kW.

The trunk is reduced from 520 liters of the versions with a combustion engine to 465 liters. There is no difference in space inside, which as usual in the brand, is very well done.

Audi Q5 Sportback TFSI Quattro

The Audi Q5 Sportback is the body with a more dynamic approach that completed the brand’s mid-size SUV range. Like the model from which it starts, it has two versions with a plug-in hybrid engine, which hit the market in early 2021. Of course, they are significantly more expensive than the Q5 alone.

They are the same mechanics as the conventional bodywork. On the one hand, the Q5 Sportback 50 TFSIe, which delivers 299 CV of total power combining a 2.0 TFSI four-cylinder gasoline engine with an electric one integrated into the seven-speed S tronic gearbox. Above is the Q5 Sportback 55 TFSIe that reaches 367 hp .

Both versions share a 14.4 kWh capacity battery. With it fully charged, it can travel up to 62 km in 100% electric mode and achieves the ZERO label. In a domestic outlet it is fully charged in about six hours, a time that is reduced to two and a half hours with a 32-amp outlet. It is possible to carry out fast recharges in alternating current at a power of up to 7.3 kW.

In the Q5 Sportback 50 TFSIe, the commercial offer starts with the Advanced finish, while the most powerful engine is reserved for the S line and Black line finishes, with a sportier cut. There are no variations inside, but there are in the capacity of the trunk, which goes from 510 to 455 liters since the battery is located under the floor.

Audi Q7 TFSIe

The Audi Q7 bets heavily on hybridization with two variants, the Q7 55 TFSIe and the Q7 60 TFSIe. Sales in Spain are initially limited to the most powerful variant, with 456 hp and a maximum torque of 700 Nm. It is achieved by combining a 3.0 V6 TFSI petrol engine and an electric one that give the car good performance: it is capable of accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.7 seconds and reaching 240 km/h.

The electric motor is powered by energy from a lithium-ion battery with a 17.3 kWh capacity, enough to move up to 42 kilometers in 100% electric mode (provided it does not exceed 135 km/h), which earns it the Zero label from the DGT.

This variant of the Audi Q7 2020 has three driving modes: EV (pure electric), Auto, which combines both engines in the most efficient way, and Hold, which saves energy in the battery for later use. They are added to the Audi drive Select driving mode selector that offers up to seven options that vary the response of the engine, transmission, suspension, direction…

Like other plug-in hybrids of the brand, it comes standard with the S Line finish, which highlights the sportiness with underbody painted in body color, 20-inch wheels, red brake calipers, sports seats upholstered in alcantara, aluminum. Also included at no extra cost is the Audi virtual cockpit digital instrument panel. In addition, there are a good number of extras to increase the technological and security equipment.

Audi Q8 TFSI Quattro

It was in 2021 when the Plug in Hybrid SUVs versions of the Audi Q8 2019 arrived on the market that use technology similar to that used by the Porsche Cayenne E-Hybrid or Volkswagen Touareg R PHEV.

The first of them, the Audi Q8 55 TFSIe quattro announces 381 hp and 600 Nm, the result of combining a 340 hp 3.0 V6 turbo gasoline engine with a 136 hp electric motor, an automatic gearbox with a torque converter of 8 relations and a total traction system capable of sending up to 85% to the front axle, or up to 70% to the rear axle. With the same scheme is the 60 TFSIe quattro with 462 CV and 700 Nm.

They both have very good performance. The electrical part is powered by the energy stored in lithium-ion batteries with a capacity of 17.8 kWh, with which these versions can travel 47 or 45 km in 100% electric mode, which is why it has a Zero label.

The internal charger demits loads of up to 7.4 kW of power. The capacity of the energy regeneration system stands out. The plug-in hybrid Audi Q8 has 7 driving modes, as well as sailing (disconnects the combustion engine to move by inertia). It can also work in conjunction with the browser to optimize consumption based on the route taken (orography, traffic…)

BMW X1 xDrive25e

The BMW X1 xDrive25e is the plug-in hybrid variant of the X1 2019, the compact SUV from the Bavarian firm. It shares a powertrain with the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer or the Mini Countryman powered by this technology. That leaves us with a supercharged 1.5-litre 3-cylinder petrol block delivering 92 kW (125 PS) peak power and 220 Nm of torque, sending its power to the front wheels via the 6-speed Steptronic automatic transmission. . The rear axle is powered by an electric motor with 70 kW (95 hp) of power and 165 Nm of torque.

It is, therefore, a fairly powerful and capable all-wheel drive car, since the maximum power of the system reaches 162 kW (220 hp) and a maximum torque of 385 Nm. It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 6.9 seconds and has a top speed of 193 km/h. The most important thing in cars of this nature: it announces up to 57 km of autonomy in electric mode –up to 135 km/h–, for which it benefits from the DGT Zero label.

The electrical system is powered by a 10 kWh capacity lithium-ion battery. In a conventional plug it is fully recharged in 5 hours and in 3.8 80% of the charge is recovered. If you choose to purchase a BMW i Wallbox charging post, the total charge is reduced to 3.2 hours. The charging socket is located behind the cover of the left front fender of the car.

The driver can use the eDrive button on the center console to intervene in the operation of the powertrain and change the car’s temperament and response between various modes or save battery power, as well as the rest of the usual modes.

The new BMW X1 xDrive25e has good standard equipment, with dual-zone climate control or 17-inch alloy wheels. To improve it, the Sport, xLine and M Sport finishes can be chosen, in addition to the huge list of optional equipment that is offered in the combustion models. The cargo space has 450 liters of capacity and if the backrests of the rear seats are folded down, they reach 1,470 liters.

BMW X2 xDrive 25e

The BMW X2 xDrive 25e is the zero-labeled plug-in hybrid version of BMW’s compact SUV with a coupé line and betting on more dynamic behavior, the X2 launched in 2018.

It uses the same technology to propel itself as the Series 2 Active Tourer 225 xe, the MINI Countryman SE or the X1 xDrive 25e. The front wheels are powered by a 125 hp (92 kW) three-cylinder petrol engine with 220 Nm of torque (via a six-speed automatic Steptronic gearbox) and the rear axle is powered by an electric motor that generates 95 hp (70 kW) and delivers 165 Nm of torque through a gearless reduction system. The maximum power of the system is 220 hp (162 kW) and 385 Nm .

Its performance is good, as it accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 6.8 seconds (one tenth faster than the X1 with identical mechanics) and reaches 195 km/h. Electric power comes from the hand of a lithium-ion battery with a 10 kWh capacity, which allows an electric range of between 55 and 57 km, enough to have the DGT zero label. In 5 hours it is fully charged in a conventional socket (operation reduced to 3.2 with a wallbox). Its trunk is 450 liters (20 less than the combustion variants).

In addition to the usual driving modes, there is the eDrive button on the center console to control the operation of the system. From Auto mode (the two motors interact in an optimized way) to Max (prioritizes electric mode, up to 135 km/h) through Save Battery (maintains the charge level). It also offers good standard equipment, with 17-inch wheels, dual-zone climate control… which can be improved with three equipment packages (Impulse, M Sport and M Sport X), which vary the statics and a large list of optional equipment.

BMW X3 xDrive30e

The BMW SUV offer includes options for all tastes. Just the middle ground is in the BMW X3, whose third generation landed on the European market in 2017 and, in 2021, received its corresponding mid-life update. In addition to the changes to the exterior and interior, the most eco-friendly alternative in the range must be highlighted, the BMW X3 xDrive 30e plug-in hybrid.

Under the hood of the X3 xDrive 30e is a 2.0-liter petrol engine with 184 hp that works in unison with an electric 109 hp and a 12 kWh battery located under the second row of seats. Together, the four wheels receive a total of 292 hp and 420 Nm through an eight-speed automatic gearbox – torque converter type. The charging time that BMW cites is “less than six hours” in a domestic plug (2.3 kW) and “about three and a half hours” if it is connected to a Wallbox socket (3.7 kW), and its autonomy of 50 kilometers.

As in other BMW hybrid models, the X3 xDrive30e has various energy management modes selectable via a dedicated button on the center console (MAX eDrive, Auto eDrive and Battery Control). Additionally, it also has the driving modes that you would find in any other version of the X3 (Eco Pro, Comfort and Sport), which are the ones that act on the response of the steering, the gearbox and the suspension, among other elements. . In 100% electric mode, top speed is electronically limited to 135 km/h.

The trunk of this version has 450 liters of capacity , 100 less than that of any other X3. This is motivated by the installation of the high voltage battery and the location of the fuel tank (on the rear axle). By folding down the backrests of the rear seats, which do so in three parts (40:20:40), the volume increases to 1,500 litres. Trims are also the same as the rest of the range: Base , Advantage , xLine , Luxury and M Sport , and the list of optional equipment is just as substantial regardless of trim.

BMW X5 xDrive45e iPerformance

With the arrival of the fourth generation of the BMW X5, it was also expected that some version with an alternative propulsion system would arrive. It has not been made to be asked and here is the BMW X5 xDrive45e iPerformance, which is the second generation of plug-in hybrid in this model. At an aesthetic level it is distinguished from other X5 thanks to some exterior details and also to a trunk that is reduced to 500 liters (645 liters in combustion).

The reason is that plug-in hybrid propulsion system, which is made up of a 3.0-liter in-line six-cylinder gasoline engine linked to another electrical mechanics. It is linked to an eight-speed Steptronic automatic transmission and xDrive all-wheel drive. They are combined achieving a power of 394 hp and 600 Nm of torque , which allows it to have outstanding performance.

It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.6 seconds and has a top speed of 235 km/h. On the other hand, its lithium-ion battery allows it to reach an electric range of 80 kilometers , with a maximum speed of 140 km/h on the electric motor. The average approved consumption of this model is 2.1 l/100km and its CO2 emissions have been reduced to 49 g/km.

The equipment is still very prominent as in the rest of the BMW X5. It can be chosen with several lines of equipment and complete its endowment to unsuspected limits thanks to BMW Individual. It also wants to stand out for its driving aids, being able to mount novelties such as the emergency stop assistant and other interesting ones such as the lane keeping assistant with active side collision protection.

Citroën C5 Aircross Hybrid

The C5 Aircross Hybrid is the plug-in hybrid version of the 2018 C5 Aircross. It came to market as part of PSA’s commitment to this technology. This plug-in hybrid SUV shares the hybrid system with the Peugeot 3008 Hybrid and the Opel Grandland X Hybrid, although in the Citroën the power is always delivered to the front wheels. It consists of a 180 hp 1.6 PureTech petrol engine, associated with a 110 hp electric mechanic, which develops a combined power of 225 hp .

Both engines are associated with an eight-speed automatic gearbox e-EAT8 and the energy that comes from the lithium-ion battery with 13.2 kWh capacity. With it you can travel up to 50 km in 100% electric mode, as long as it does not exceed 135 km/h (the combustion engine would come into operation) and less than 30 km/h it generates artificial sound.

To recharge that battery, it can be plugged into a conventional outlet for 7 hours, a time that may make many consider buying a 32A Wallbox charger, which reduces that time to a couple of hours.

Compared to other versions, this C5 Aircross Hybrid is committed to comfort, something that we already saw in our C5 Aircross test. The trunk loses some capacity compared to other versions and ranges between 460 and 600 liters of capacity (moving the seats forward). The brand offers two levels of equipment, Feel and Shine, quite complete from the basic.

Cupra Formentor e-Hybrid

The 2020 CUPRA Formentor hit the market with the 310 hp 2.0 TSI engine, associated with the 7-speed DSG gearbox and 4Drive all-wheel drive (see test) but soon added two plug-in hybrid versions to its range.

Both have a common propulsion system in the Volkswagen Group, which combines a 1.4 TSI with 150 hp and 250 Nm of maximum torque and an electric motor with 115 hp (85 kW) and 330 Nm that, in combination with an electric motor, delivers 204 or 245 hp in the case of the Formentor VZ e-Hybrid. It is mated to a six-speed dual-clutch transmission that sends power to the front wheels.

With the lithium-ion battery of 13 kWh capacity fully charged that gives it a range of up to 55 km (reduced to 50 in the most powerful). The benefits are very good as it announces a 0 to 100 km/h in 7.8 seconds for the 204 hp version and a maximum speed of 205 km/h, which in the case of the VZ eHybrid is 7 seconds and 210 km. /h.

As standard, it has a very complete equipment that includes Full LED headlights, multiple driving aids, three-zone climate control, wireless phone charger, rear parking sensors, heated leather steering wheel with paddles…

DS 7 Crossback E-Tense

Electrification comes to DS and its first plug-in hybrid as an independent brand (before they had the Citroën DS5 Hybrid4) it is their largest SUV. The DS 7 Crossback E-Tense 4×4 joins this booming segment with that striking design that characterizes the brand. If before they used diesel in their hybrids, over time the tone has changed and now they take advantage of a gasoline mechanic.

This is the 1.6 PureTech, which is linked to two electric motors, one located on each axle. With this distribution, it is capable of moving all four wheels and earns the name 4 × 4. The transmission used is the automatic e-EAT8 with a specific set-up for this type of propulsion. The system has a total power of 300 hp and 450 Nm of torque , being the top-of-the-range version of the model.

In this case, a lithium-ion battery with a capacity of 13.2 kWh is used, which allows it to reach an electric range of 50 kilometers . A full recharge can be done with a 32-amp Wallbox in just two hours, although a conventional outlet would take eight hours. The DS 7 Crossback E-Tense 4×4 has an acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 6.5 seconds and the maximum speed in electric mode is limited to 135 km/h.

In this SUV you can choose several driving modes, which are Zero Emission, Sport, Hybrid and 4WD . This allows the behavior of the vehicle to be adapted to the situation. In addition, it has some interesting functions such as E-Save to save energy. In this case, the battery does not affect its habitability and that allows it to maintain the 555 liters of capacity in the trunk.

Hyundai Tucson PHEV

The Hyundai Tucson plug-in hybrid (PHEV) is the most powerful and efficient alternative in the 2021 Tucson range. However, it is not the fastest, since it weighs almost half a ton above the 1.6 T-GDi hybrid engine 230 hp. It is not a vehicle designed to race, but rather to travel through the metropolis and highway sections at a moderate speed without spending a lot of fuel or generating more emissions.

This Hyundai SUV delivers a total power of 265 hp and 350 Nm thanks to the joint work of a 179 hp 1.6-liter turbocharged gasoline engine and a 91 hp electric one. The lithium polymer battery has 13.8 kWh, achieving an electric range of 62 kilometers (WLTP). With a maximum charging power of 3.3 kW, the recharge time is three hours and 25 minutes on a direct current (AC) outlet. In terms of performance, it does the 0 to 100 km/h in 8.6 seconds and reaches a top speed of 190 km/h.

The distribution of force between both motors between the front and rear wheels is variable and depends on the state of the road surface and the type of driving. Inside, on the center console, there is a dial (Terrain Mode) dial that allows you to choose between different operating modes of the all-wheel drive system . Likewise, the shock absorbers can be adjusted in hardness automatically depending on the traffic conditions or at the driver’s will depending on the chosen driving mode. The trunk cubic 558 liters .

As the logical one, the plug-in hybrid Hyundai Tucson is only available in the highest finishes ( Maxx , Tecno Sky and Style ; the N Line finish is reserved for conventional and micro-hybridized gasoline models). Semi-autonomous driving capabilities include Active Cruise Control in conjunction with Lane Keeping System (accelerates, decelerates and steers based on traffic ahead and lane markings) or Remote Parking Assist via of the key.

Jaguar E-Pace 300e

The Jaguar E-Pace P300e is the plug-in hybrid version of the brand’s SUV, one of the great novelties of the model update in 2021.

The big role falls on the propulsion system. It combines a 200 hp 1.5 three-cylinder petrol engine located at the front with an 80 kW (109 hp) electric motor integrated in the rear axle, for a power of 309 hp .

It has a 15 kWh capacity battery, which gives it an approved autonomy of 55 km. This helps that, in addition to being the most powerful in the range, it is the most efficient (as long as we plug it into the network, it supports fast charges of up to 32 kW, a very good fact). Although the battery is located under the boot floor, it retains the 470-liter capacity of the rest of the range.

It has all the aesthetic and equipment novelties and very few aesthetic differences with respect to combustion models. It can be chosen with the trim levels S, SE and HSE (from lowest to highest endowment), in this case always with the R-Dymanic pack, one of the reasons why it is somewhat more expensive than the Range Rover Evoque P300e, its mechanical and bodywork counterpart within the group.

Jaguar F-Pace 400e

The great novelty of the Jaguar F-Pace 2021 was the incorporation of a plug-in hybrid version. This is the Jaguar F-Pace P400e, which uses the same scheme used in other Group models.

The propulsion system combines a 300 hp 2.0 four-cylinder petrol engine with a 143 hp electric motor that deliver a combined 404 hp of power and 640 Nm of torque through an eight-speed automatic transmission. Its benefits are good, since it can go from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.3 seconds.

The electric motor is powered by a lithium-ion battery with a capacity of 17.1 kWh, with which it homologates 53 km of electric autonomy. It supports direct current loads of up to 32 kW of power, with which it goes from 0% to 80% charge in 30 minutes. With a 7 kW home wall charger it reaches 80% charge in 1 hour and 40 minutes.

Jeep Compass 4xe

In the past, the Jeep Compass was an unattractive machine, but with the arrival of the second generation in 2017, sandwiched between the Renegade and Cherokee, the package was more elegant and refined than before. Points that it further reinforced with the 2021 update by integrating new safety and technology equipment, as well as a completely renewed interior and two plug-in hybrid models (PHEV) under the name Jeep Compass 4Xe .

These variants differ externally from the internal combustion ones – 130 and 150 hp gasoline and 130 hp diesel – by the “4Xe” badges and an additional charging port (on the driver’s side). The rest remains practically unchanged. The same goes for the interior, which also benefited from the complete renovation of the rest of the range . In this case, we find a dedicated driving mode and specific menus in the instrument panel and infotainment system to display different parameters of the hybrid set.

Under the bodywork we find the same platform that supports the Renegade, which in turn is the same as that of the Fiat 500X. At a mechanical level, the first of the options welcomes in its vain a 1.3-liter gasoline engine and 130 hp that moves the front wheels. On the rear axle there is an electric motor that provides an additional 60 hp and provides all-wheel drive, for a total of 190 hp . The second option uses the same configuration, but with the heat engine delivering 180 hp ( 240 hp overall ). Both are automatic.

For its part, the battery is 11.4 kWh. With a recharging power of 7.4 kW, it takes about two hours to fill up again, while at 2.3 kWh (a domestic socket) it takes about five hours. The approved autonomy (WLTP) is 52 kilometers for either of the two versions. The only differences between one and the other are in their performance, with a 0 to 100 km/h time of 7.9 seconds and a top speed of 183 km/h for the 190 hp Compass 4Xe, and 7.3 seconds and 200 km /h respectively for the 240 CV.

Lexus NX 450h+

Although it is very similar to the first generation, launched in 2014, the Lexus NX presented in 2021 is completely new. This adopted the TNGA-K platform of the Toyota RAV4, so it manages to be lighter and more dynamic than its predecessor, as well as a gain in space on board without hardly changing the external dimensions. But, without a doubt, the highlight of the Japanese crossover is the plug-in hybrid option, a first for the brand and with the name of Lexus NX 450h+ .

Along with the serial hybrid drive ( NX 350h ), the Lexus NX boasts a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) consisting of a 2.5-liter four-cylinder thermal engine with 185 hp and two electric motors, one of 182 hp attached to the front axle and another 54 hp to the rear axle. The power of the set is 306 hp , enough to go from 0 to 100 km/h in 6.3 seconds and drive up to 63 kilometers without generating polluting emissions. The 18.1 kWh battery can be fully recharged in two and a half hours with a 6.6 kW port.

The gearbox, as in the rest of the Lexus and Toyota models, is made up of a planetary gear transmission that, for practical purposes, works the same as a continuous variator (CVT) . Once inside, the standard multimedia system is 9.8 inches, although there is the possibility of mounting a 14 “. Both have compatibility with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay functions (the former wired and the latter wireless) and support file sharing via various USB ports (Type C and 2.0) and the Lexus Link App.

Mercedes GLC 300 e (and from)

The Mercedes GLC 2019 has two plug-in hybrid variants, well differentiated, since one is committed to gasoline and the other to diesel, together with an electric motor. Both arrived on the market in the summer of 2020.

In the first case, the Mercedes GLC 300 e 4Matic, combines a 211 hp and 350 Nm of torque petrol block with a 90 kW (122 hp) and 440 Nm of torque electric motor. The result is a combined power of 320 hp and 700 Nm of torque , which are transmitted to the wheels through an automatic transmission and the Mercedes all-wheel drive system.

The second example is the Mercedes GLC 300 from 4Matic, which in this case combines the 194 hp diesel and 440 Nm of torque with the same electric drive, to achieve 306 hp and 700 Nm of joint power torque. It is also associated with the automatic gearbox and the 4Matic all-wheel drive.

In both cases, the electric motor is powered by energy stored in lithium-ion batteries with a capacity of 13.5 kWh. They are located under the floor at the rear of the vehicle, hence the trunk has a capacity of 395 liters (1,445 liters with the rear seats folded down). In both cases, the electric autonomy exceeds 51 km, which is why they obtain the Zero Emissions label from the DGT. Diesel is more advisable if you make many long trips a year, but it costs around 1,800 euros more.

The pair of hybrid mechanics are identical to those mounted on the conventional bodywork of the Mercedes GLC. Equal plug-in hybrid mechanics is around 3,000 euros more expensive. One uses a gasoline engine and the other a diesel (an option that only Mercedes uses on the market). In the first case we have the Mercedes GLC 300 e 4Matic Coupé , which combines the four-cylinder gasoline engine, 211 hp and 350 Nm of torque, with an electric motor of 90 kW (122 hp) and 440 Nm of torque. The total power of the system is 320 hp and 700 Nm of torque.

On the other hand, there is the Mercedes GLC 300 4Matic Coupé , with 306 hp and 700 Nm of joint power, achieved thanks to the joint work of a diesel of 194 hp and 440 Nm of torque with the same electric motor.

In both cases they are associated with an automatic gearbox that sends power to both axles thanks to the 4Matic all-wheel drive. The 13.5 kWh capacity battery is responsible for electrical energy, enough to guarantee an electric range of up to 51 km, which makes them worthy of the DGT zero label. They are located at the rear of the vehicle, which reduces the boot capacity to 350 liters (compared to 500 in conventional versions).

Mercedes GLE 350 from

The 4MATIC Mercedes-Benz GLE 350, the plug-in hybrid version of the 2019 GLE, has different mechanics than most SUVs with this technology. It combines a 2.0-liter four-cylinder diesel engine with 194 hp of power, together with an electric motor that provides 136 hp and 440 Nm of torque. The maximum combined power is 320 hp, with no less than 700 Nm of torque.

In this way, the car boasts low consumption on the road, the handicap of plug-in hybrid cars, in addition to a very high autonomy in electric mode, of 98 km. The latter is achieved thanks to a battery with a high capacity: 31.2 kWh and, obviously, it has the DGT Zero label.

The size of the battery has forced to redesign the rear of the GLE and modify the rear axle. It somewhat reduces the capacity of the trunk, which remains at 490 liters. The battery can be recharged from 10 to 100% in 30 minutes, with the charging socket located on the rear left.

The benefits are very good, as it is capable of accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in 6.8 seconds and reaching 210 km/h. In electric mode the speed is limited to 160 km/h. Of course, its price is quite high, but it partially compensates for it with a larger standard equipment than traditional combustion models.
