The fact that they would put this in a hybrid means there’s something limiting it (ie poor discharge power, overheats easily, etc).
I’d wager it’s just marketing.
Hybrids sell where EVs cannot.
To wit, I want an EV, but I live in an apartment with no place to plug in and work from home; charging would be, at best, a hassle.
So, instead, I got a hybrid.
I drove 2 hybrids until I got an EV. Will never go back. Concerns about EVs melt away once you’ve driven one. Charging is less of a hassle than you think.
