The hybrids aren't going to be much help when the internal combustion bans come in in approximately 2030-2035 for a large fraction of developed countries. People talk about pure EVs because legislation is demanding pure EVs.
- teeray 5y agoExactly, the regulation is needlessly extremist. Hybrids offer the advantages of both types of vehicles. We could make meaningful progress towards carbon reduction with vehicles that are more inclusive of the needs of people in many climates. Instead, the regulation demands perfection and limits us to vehicles that are practical only in southern California.
- nradov 5y agoMost people expect that internal combustion ban to be delayed, or expanded to allow hybrid vehicles. It just isn't practical to shift the manufacturing base and transportation infrastructure to electric in such a short time. There will be too much political pushback.
