    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.
