Enter the new 2025 Toyota Alphard PHEV (plug-in hybrid EV), which aims to meet the demand for a luxury MPV with a decent electric range while still offering the reassurance of a gasoline engine.

Volkswagen is jumping on the multi-energy bandwagon with plans to offer its next ninth-generation Mark IX Golf with both internal combustion and all-electric versions, according to Britain's AutoCar.

Underpinning the all-electric Golf will be the group’s flexible SSP platform with 800-volt tech. The new model will be built in Germany, ICE Golf production will be shifted to Mexico.
