Electric vehicles are here! Diffee Lincoln is your source for the latest information on electrified luxury Lincoln models to help you understand the different types of electrified powertrains and how to transition to a pure electric vehicle (EV) as the Lincoln brand moves toward an all EV lineup by 2030.
Electrified Vehicle Types
The three most popular electric powertrain setups are mild (traditional) hybrids, plug-in hybrids, and pure electric vehicles. Find out which one is right for you with our quick overview of electrified Lincoln vehicle options.
Traditional Hybrids
Traditional hybrids have an electric motor to provide fuel efficiency in certain driving situations or boost horsepower. Lincoln luxury models such as the Lincoln Nautilus® Hybrid SUV have a mild hybrid system that allows you to refuel like usual and enjoy the benefits of electrification without changing your current driving habits.
Plug In Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs)
Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) are like mild hybrids in that they have a gas engine, but they also have a bigger battery pack to power the electric motor. The setup allows drivers to choose driving modes from pure electric over limited distances or a combination of fuel and electric power for exceptional performance and long range. You’ll need to recharge the battery in PHEVs like the Lincoln Corsair® Grand Touring SUV by plugging it in at home or public EV charging station.
Pure Electric Vehicles (EVs) or Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs)
Pure electric vehicles (EVs) like the Lincoln Star concept have no gas engine. Drivers need to plug in to recharge their vehicles, and there are many convenient options, from home charging to public charging stations around El Reno. A pure electric vehicle produces zero carbon emissions and offers an eco-friendly alternative without sacrificing power or luxury amenities.
Charging Options for PHEVs and BEVs
Charging PHEVs and EVs is as easy as plugging into an existing wall outlet in your home with the included portable charger. Level I (120-volt) charging requires no additional equipment, while Level II (240-volt) requires a professional installation at home. However, if you live near public charging stations, you can enjoy faster Level II and DC fast-charging speeds with no additional equipment.
- Level I Charging at Home
- Level II Charging at Home
- Level II & DC Fast-Charging On the Go
