There are currently no commercially produced PHEVs. However, many prototypes have proven their practicality. The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) and DaimlerChrysler have built a Dodge Sprinter PHEV delivery van and plan to test 30 of the vehicles in cities across America by the end of 2006. EDrive Systems has introduced a commercial retrofit that converts a Prius into a plug-in hybrid: The first 60 miles driven each day are half gasoline and half electric.
