All vehicles with a plug are designed to be charged frequently. Since plug-in hybrids or EVs with range extenders can also run on gasoline, it may seem less important to charge these vehicles as frequently. The truth is, these vehicles are run less efficiently when using gasoline because they are lugging a giant battery around. That means it may actually be MORE efficient to buy a hybrid without a plug, than to buy a plug-in hybrid if you don't intend to charge it every day.
