While the gas engine will be there for long range trips and convenience of fast refueling.
I remembering back then driving my dad's volt on some occasions, it got solid fuel economy and I think between 30-40 miles of range out of the battery. On the occasions we didn't charge it you could just fill up. Was a cool car, I do miss it. It leased for cheap at that time.

I can agree with you on that. Seems like companies are definitely jumping at EV too quickly. Hybrid combines the best of two worlds, you get the efficiency of an EV and the flexibility of an ICE car.
