I drive a hybrid, and it was one of the most important factors in deciding which car to purchase after my last one was totaled. I ended up with a 2019 Honda Insight. It's an absolutely fantastic vehicle for what I need a car for. The mileage is excellent, and the range exceeds even the best EV by essentially double while not suffering from the biggest EV downside -- charging.

Hybrids are absolutely the middle ground, transition vehicles to EV. Most manufacturers are going all-in on hybrid drive systems. CA's requirement that all new vehicles by 2035 be zero-emission is driving that transition. Once charging becomes ubiquitous as gas stations, we're going to see an explosion of EV vehicles.

The only reason I don't have an EV now is because I live in an apartment complex and don't have a ready way to charge a car without going somewhere else.
