Default Re: Is The HCH Considered An Electric Vehicle

No it is not an electric vehicle. While it is true that many of the OEM produced EV's have been reclaimed and destroyed (noteably the GM EV1) there are still some out there that do use the charging stations.

If you can not plug in please do not block those parking spaces in case someone who could actually plug in goes there and needs to recharge. If you do block these spaces depending on where you car you are most likely subject to a toe and impoundment with possible fines. Furthermore if you do block an EV charging space you could potentially leave an EV driver stranded if they were depending on the charging being at their destination. I drive an electric myself and I as much as I hate having to do it I've had to have vehicles towed out of EV charging spaces before. Here it also carries a fine of at least $350 too!
