The problem is that these cars are a stopgap measure, and they're suboptimal hybrids (because of the weight). For example, my Volt and Subaru Outback weigh almost the same (within one person's weight). They can get almost the same fuel economy, give or take 5 mpg).

For sure! I think the most suboptimal hybrid is the hybrid that uses the ICE to power the wheels as well - unfortunately none of the cars I want are sold in Canada so I bought my spouse a normal HEV😅 - so at least the Volt didn’t do that.

electric cars are also a stopgap measure. but also I love the taste of lithium so we need more electric cars
