Forget fuel efficiency and planet-saving for a minute.
Hybrids give you an OPTION. We should be optimizing hybrids so they can run just as efficiently on gasoline OR electricity.
If gas prices are up, just drive the car with 75% electricity. If electric is climbing, drive it with 75% gas.
I realize that's an oversimplification, but consider that the government WANTS you dependent on electric cars - that they can switch off with a flick of the wrist. Just look at California with their rolling blackouts, or the over-panicked response to Covid-19.
It should be painfully obvious that the government would LOVE to control our movement. A true gas/electric hybrid that can run fully on either system is a great option for the public.

what they dont tell you is the sector that produces the most greenhouse gases is the same industry that creates these batteries....
Plug in hybrids seem like a viable alternative to all electric. Seems like I read somewhere that this is the direction Toyota was going in the future.

E bikes are where its at. Sales have been steadily increasing, designs are being created for various usage, long distance, power, speed and some with limited delivery.
I've been cruising the interweebles and am seeing many riders commuting to work or shop etc, savings for these things in all categories for sure.
Maybe the EV makers meant e bikes when they were talking up EVs
