Does the C350e plug in hybrid save you any money?

Hello everyone

I am about to take the plunge and get a c350e plug in hybrid in Thailand. What i'd like to ask the community (or those who have it already) is.... does it save me any money over a regular hybrid version?

So currently there are 2 choices in my mind

1. Brand new c350e plug in hybrid (USD 78,000)
2. Second hand 2015 c300 hybrid with 15,000km (USD 63,000)

I could charge for free in my condominium's carpark every night.

Any advice from the wise ones on this forum?

Thank you ^^

This heavily depends on the mileage you make.
When every charged Mile is for free you can calculate the profit out of that.
I also don't have a clue what the fuel prices in Thailand are.
As soon as the battery is empty, the car becomes effectively a C300 hybrid with a stronger electrical engine.
If you get COMAND in it there is a ton that distributes the electrical power efficiently across you scheduled trip.
