That's why hybrids are great, hedges your bets between iron and lithium

  Non-plugin hybrids typically do not use lithium batteries.

    Is this still the case? Haven't most of the manufacturers switched over from NiMH?

      my 2023 Rav 4 is still NiMH

      They are better suited for the usecase, as they can sustain far more charge cycles without degradation. Which you end up doing a lot.

  Terrible cars tho. Nobody likes their hybrids compared to pure EV.

    I used to drive a Toyota Yaris Hybrid and I really liked it, I moved to a different country and couldn't take the car with me and now I drive a scooter, but if I'll ever buy a car again, it'll most likely be a hybrid, I really like the range.

    I like my Honda just fine. Granted, I've never owned an EV, but considering I travel a lot and gas stations are plentiful and fast, it's a better fit for me than an EV would be. I do think a plug-in hybrid would be better for when I'm not traveling, but I bought this car specifically for travel.

    Terrible in what sense? I had no complaints with my Prius C.

      Slow and expensive to maintain. Takes a special person to appreciate that.
