If you don't charge your PHEV it still works as a HEV, so you get considerably better gas mileage than a pure ICE.

Also, is the drivetrain more complex? If your Hybrid is a Toyota it will have a mechanically simpler drivetrain than an ICE, but their drivetrain is electrically and electronically more complex. I think it is the same with some Honda hybrids.
