OMG THAT WAS YOU GUYS? I was a few cars behind you guys last Wednesday (August 9) going up SLEX from EDSA Magallanes late afternoon/early evening. I thought "Oh boy that guy is breaking coding". Imagine my surprise when they let you go. It all made sense when the MMDA officer suddenly shouted to his fellow enforcers "HYBRID!". You guys have no idea how much that changed my mind about getting a Hybrid/EV

In short, it is categorized globally as a "Series Hybrid Vehicle", a type of hybrid that uses an internal combustion engine as a "range extender". The car is fully-electric powered, it just has a gasoline generator sustaining the batteries, as the name implies. It is also known in other countries as a "extended-range electric vehicle" or EREV. So yes, the Kicks e-POWER is an EV.

I think its about time that we put a mic on Jack. Love the banter always!

The test is flawed because if the officers pulled you over in the first place, they were unable to identify it as an HEV. If they did and all they needed was for you to vocally tell them it is an EV without them checking, then the system still doesn't work cause someone can just get a hybrid badge to put them without them checking the papers, for example the Corolla/Yaris Cross or the Innova Zenix that has both hybrid and non-hybrid variants, or the mild hybrid cars like the Ertiga, Okavango, and CX-60 which shouldnt be excluded. Also, the officers could probably just not care even if they see it and don't know it's an HEV.

to be fair, not even the general populace is aware on what cars are EVs, HEVs, PHEVs, or regular ICE engines. You either have to be an EV simp or a car guy updated with EV news to actually be aware which is which. So I can't exactly blame them as well if not many of them don't know what is and what's not. It also doesn't help that many car brands have hybrid and EV version of their regular cars. A quick fix with this is to let LTO make specific plates for EVs and the like. Or force manufacturers to make a specific design to ensure people will know it's an EV like say putting an EV badge on the front using a specific color on the front grille area (or the area where one should be found on an ICE engine) to denote that it's an EV. Or hell, even a special sticker from LTO on the windshield should be enough to denote that it's an EV.

@@dickmelsonlupot7697 yeah the plate number is really the easiest option to identify without asking for an OR/CR. Hybrid badges are cheap to buy and people can easily stick them on non-hybrid variants of hybrid vehicles. The other expectation is at the very least a training or circular to traffic enforcers regarding the hybrid vehicles available, but as they start to increase in numbers it's a less feasible solution

A good implementation would be, if LTO issues plates with a extra character for EVs. Like, start with “E” or something, like what they have in Taiwan. We cant expect every enforcer to know every car model and its specs... Saves time from getting flagged down and explaining.

Are there any indicators in the car that enforcers could based on if a car is EV (like an additional sticker)?

i would think they were trained to Identify the make and model as well as look for indicators like an EV badge/emblem somewhere around the car. I could be wrong but I thought that EV vehicles are/will be provided special plates for easier identification and would make it harder to fake like the EV badges/emblems. Also, this is the Philippines, enforcers sometimes choose who to flag down. And sometimes just taking the driver's word is less of a hassle than asking for additional documents. Everyone has somewhere to be and work to do. 😅 On a side note, SoJooCars did this test with the Ertiga and enforcers also just took his word for it, even though he has the docs prepared.

I have just 1 thought, I don't know if it's right, but, why don't they have a small generator connected to the electric motor of the car, that feeds the battery as well at the same time, so while you're driving and using the electric car, the generator connected to it is charging its battery again without having an ICE.?

Try 2024 Yaris Cross Hyrbrd Too.

Knowing the track record of the LTO with plates, goodluck getting those EV plates til the Evida Law expires. Owning Hybrids/EVs and getting to your destination on-time will be a headache getting pulled-over every corner.

Innovation in utility vehicles is part of a continuing progress in the world we lives in. But i disagree having this marketing strategy just because it is not addressing the traffic system issues currently in the Philippines but instead this approach is just adding to the problems in the roadway congestions. Why? having exempted in the Coding System apparently implemented in various urbanized cities means is just a temporary relief to vehicle owners, but in general it is not adding value to all other means of transport . In the long run E-vehilcles will be regulated too. Just sharing an opinion.👍
