Land Rover sees an official EPA range of close to 50 miles for its Range Rover plug-in hybrid. Electric vehicle newbies are charmed with EVs but not so tied to a brand. And Mini is officially converting its classic minicars. This and more, here at Green Car Reports<\/em>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/strong>Mini is launching what it calls a \u201cbespoke upcycling\u201d program for converting classic Minis to all-electric<\/a>. Under the Mini Recharged program\u2014so far only in the UK\u2014original engines are preserved and changes are reversible; but with 120 hp and about 100 miles of range, it\u2019s a new way to enjoy a classic.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/strong>Land Rover has confirmed pricing and range info for its next, U.S.-bound Range Rover plug-in hybrid, badged the P440e. The 2023 Range Rover P440e will go an estimated 48 EPA miles<\/a> without the engine starting\u2014and it\u2019s one of the only plug-in hybrids on the market to offer DC fast-charging.<\/p>\n

<\/strong>The Kia Niro EV, Ford Mustang Mach-E, and Tesla Model 3 and Model Y were among the top-rated fully electric models in a study of satisfaction with plug-in vehicles<\/a> from survey giant J.D. Power. It found that while first-time electric vehicle owners are charmed by EVs, there were indications that brands have a lot to lose in the transition if owners aren\u2019t satisfied with quality issues and other details.\u00a0<\/p>\n
