The plug in hybrid is a distinct model from the regular hybrid. There are a number of used Volts out there at a decent price. There is also the Prius Prime and the Rav4 plug in, but their electric range is shorter than the Volt. The best used EV s with decent range are the Kia Niro EV, and the Chevy Bolt. Prices aren't too bad. That said, Hertz is selling off some base model Tesla 3s at very good prices.
