Only if you define hybrid to exclude plug-in hybrids. Almost all my driving is on charge, with only longer trips 2 or 3 times a month relying on the ICE in my hybrid.
- kwhitefoot 4y agoYou are one of a small minority of people who plug their plug in hybrid in. Car leasing companies here in Norway lease a lot of plug in hybrids because the count as electric and so are cheaper to buy. They have statistics about the charging and say that hardly anyone does it, the use chose it simply because it was a cheaper vehicle.
