PHEV cars rarely Charged and run on Petrol

Seems to apply to Company Bought PHEV's mainly. I have to ask what they thought would happen? It's a Tax dodge for the company and the employee nothing more. The company can't be bothered to fit Charging points and the employee has no incentive either. Result it runs around all day on Petrol except for a few minutes where the charge created by the engine kicks in. Sort of makes them crappy second hand buys as well. How many of the batteries will be working properly after 3 years.

Cynically I think Most PHEV's are designed to get into London without a congestion charge. In which case I would just buy a CR-Z and have a proper gearbox.
