In this paper, a method for calculating the average fuel consumption of PHEV fleet is proposed based on trip range distribution, and by using the trip range distribution of passenger cars in Beijing city, the average fuel consumptions of three PHEVs (Toyota Prius Plug-in, GM Volt and Fisker Karma) are calculated. The results show that the average fuel consumptions of above three PHEVs running in Beijing city are 3.37L/100km, 1.83L/km and 3.91L/100km respectively, in which the average fuel consumptions of Prius Plug-in and Volt are 58.47% and 77.45% less than that of traditional vehicle Toyota Corolla. The method proposed can be used to calculate the average fuel consumption of PHEV fleet and individual PHEV over a relatively long period.
