That's essentially what the Chevy Volt was, but when the engine kicks in, it isn't as efficient as a Toyota Prius.

Yes! Difference is the current-gen EREVs are in a different league of performance with the advancement in electric powertrain and software. Think change between a Model 3 and a Chevy Bolt...

Normally I would call both the Chevy Volt and Toyota Prius HEVs but if the Volt is an EREV, what is the Prius?

Also, would you classify a Prius Prime an EREV?
