Hi I am looking at buying a C Class hybrid, my first hybrid car and it is a distance away and I ask the owner to charge the cae over night so that I can see it in the morning charged. He has also sent me the following pictures.
Do they show that it is charging ok?

Looks that way
Thank you. Obviously I will have to look at the car etc, but didn't want to travel before at least having an idea.

It will charge, but its the condition of the battery that is important, like in your phone, remote etc etc.

Replacing a phev battery will leave your car in the dump. Unviable.

Battery went from 26% to 100% so it's charging. A bad battery will not usually charge to 100% so looks ok.
