These two innovative and alluring SUVs will give you more time on the road and less time at the gas pump. You can also take advantage of Pure Electric Mode, which allows you to take short trips without utilizing any gas at all. Say you need to make a quick stop at your local grocery store. You can go there and back, pop your SUV back on the charger once you get home, and not have to use a drop of gas fuel.
