I created this article about PEVs with the objective of clarifying a term that was been used in Wiki articles sometimes as synonymous with battery electric vehicles and other times as synonymous with plug-in hybrids, when actually technically and legally (at least in the U.S.) both are different types of PEVs. Considering that now the U.S. has tax incentives in place for PEVs, I though it was about time to clarify this confusion.
Given the unavoidable overlap between PEVs, BEVs, and PHEVs, I suggest to include in this article ONLY content that is pertinent to both all-electric and plug-in hybrids. Please, do not repeat (particularly "cut and paste") content from the existing articles unless it really applies to both of the two main categories of PEVs.
Please comment on my proposal and feel free to provide suggestions below regarding desirable content for further expansion of this article. I am not aware of how PEVs are dealt with in other countries, particularly regarding government incentives, so please leave a word here pointing to such materials if there are different uses of the term PEV around the world.- Mariordo ( talk) 04:24, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
Why does this article list current plug-in hybrids? They do have their own page!-- Pineapple Fez 08:23, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
This article only seems to cover cars, which would be understandable if the title was plug in electric cars, but it's not. Is there a reason that this article doesn't cover plug in electric motorcycles such as the ones from Brammo? Also, is there a reason for not including vehicles such as the Buddy (which is more mainstream that the BYD F3DM)? -- Pineapple Fez 00:48, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
A reviewer with experience with GA nominations, tagged the article as too long (it is actually 121.8Kb), so in order for the GA nomination to improve its changes of succeding I proposed to split the article in the following way:

Done. I believe the re-structuring you suggested is finished and the new section has all the RS. I would like you to verify all issues you have raised at this point, so that we can close this phase, and continue with the review. Nevertheless, remember that I am on vacation, so I am in no hurry.-- Mariordo ( talk) 20:29, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for your review, very comprehensive and raised some structural issues I was not aware of. Since I am on vacation I will begin making adjustments a bit slowly. Tomorrow I will comment in detail on the structural issues to make sure you provide some additional guidance before creating the new sections you suggested.-- Mariordo ( talk) 03:28, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
Hi Mariordo, I removed the external link to an article on shrinkthatfootprint.com because it appears to be a single-author blog, and the linked article is self-published on this blog. This fails [[[WP:ELNO]] ("Blogs, personal web pages and most fansites, except those written by a recognized authority."). The author doesn't seem to be a notable authority on the subject. You reverted my removal, asking if I bothered to read it. Yes, I did read it, but it is a synthesis with somewhat vague sourcing, so we need to be able to trust the author.

This article was only 4,100 words in 2011 when it was assessed as a Good Article. Now it has grown beyond 21,000 words, more than double the usual maximum size of an article. The current article is nothing like the original good article version, and it is currently far from meeting basic MOS guidelines. -- Dennis Bratland ( talk) 16:54, 12 June 2017 (UTC)

This article has been tagged with a "too long" template for 9 months now and another user has requested a Good Article Reassessment. I left a note on the talk page over a month ago pinging the major editor and suggesting some information be split, but have received no response. It is with some regret that I open this reassessment as it is a relatively important article, well referenced and reasearched and mostly well written. I have to agree though that it fails the focus criteria and therfor in its current state is not a good article.
Terminology is fine. I am not too keen on what is essentially Wikipedia:Pro and con lists with the advantages and disadvantages sections. These go into too much detail with cost analysis, sections on individual reports (including unreliable advocacy groups), extensive tables, and just an overabundance of details. Same with the market. Much comes across like advertising brochures. A lot of detail has gone into this, but it really needs to be more of a WP:Summary style. AIRcorn (talk) 08:35, 13 May 2018 (UTC)
Is this REALLY all that different from the Electric car article? Plug in electrics are the standard type of electric vehicle, I have never requested a merger before, but, I assume we could remove this one, add a few sections from this onto that one, and then touch everything up, should we do something like that?
