Cost per mile: electric vs. gas mode
Plugging in vs. letting it run on gas
A plug-in hybrid gives you the choice every day. Here’s the same 40-mile day priced both ways — charged at home, or never plugged in. Drag the slider above to set your day.

At New York rate, gas mode is cheaper per mile than charging — 11.0¢ vs. 13.6¢. Plugging in still makes sense on an off-peak or EV rate plan, but at the average residential rate the battery isn’t saving you money here.
Level 1 vs. Level 2: can your outlet keep up?
The cost per kWh is the same either way. What changes is how much of the Lincoln Corsair Grand Touring’s 27-mile electric range comes back while it’s parked — and whether the rest of your day runs on gas.
Level 1 · standard outlet
~2 mi/hour
120V · no installation needed
Plugged in 6pm–6am: about 24 of 27 electric miles by morning (89%). Full electric range from empty: ~12 hours.
Level 2 · 240V circuit
~8 mi/hour
240V · limited by the car's 3.6 kW onboard charger
Full 27-mile electric range in ~3.4 hours. Plugged in overnight, it’s full by morning every day — a bigger circuit wouldn't change that.
You probably don’t need a $2,000 dedicated home charger — 49% of people who’ve taken our readiness check don’t. The 51% who need an upgrade usually find out after they’ve bought the car. Better to know now.

If your daily driving stays under ~24 miles, a regular outlet refills the Lincoln Corsair Grand Touring every night. Drive more than that and the rest of the day runs on gas — not a problem, just a cost — unless you add Level 2 or a longer plug-in window.
Does a Level 2 install pay for itself?
A home Level 2 setup — 240V circuit plus charger — typically runs $800–$1,800 installed. For a plug-in hybrid the question is different: a regular outlet already puts back about 24 of the Lincoln Corsair Grand Touring’s 27 electric miles overnight (89%). Level 2 only earns its keep on the electric miles the outlet can’t cover — and the gas engine is the fallback, not a public fast charger.
At New York’s average rate, gas mode is cheaper per mile than charging, so the 3 extra electric miles a night don’t save money. Level 2 doesn’t pay for itself here unless you’re on an off-peak or EV rate plan.
Winter in New York
New York averages about 4 months a year cold enough to cut EV efficiency — typically 15–25% in deep winter. Here’s what that does to the Lincoln Corsair Grand Touring’s numbers at a 20% efficiency loss:
Cost per mile
~17.0¢vs. 13.6¢ in mild weather
Electric range
~22 mivs. ~27 mi
For a plug-in hybrid the range cut isn’t about getting stranded — the gas engine takes over. It’s about which miles you pay gas prices for: a day that fit inside the battery in summer (up to 27 miles) fits only ~22 in deep winter, and the rest runs on gas.

Gas, at New York's average residential rate: electric mode costs about 13.6 cents per mile versus about 11.0 cents for its own hybrid (gas) mode (33 mpg) at $3.62/gal. Plugging in still pays on an off-peak or EV rate plan, but at the average rate the battery isn't saving money here.

Restoring the full electric range from empty takes about 12 hours.
Do you need a Level 2 charger for a Lincoln Corsair Grand Touring?
Usually not. A regular outlet restores 89% of the electric range overnight; Level 2 fills it in about 3.4 hours (limited by the car's 3.6 kW onboard charger, not your circuit). At New York's average rate, gas mode is cheaper per mile than charging, so the extra miles Level 2 adds don't save money — it doesn't pay for itself here.
