VW’s sales and marketing boss reckons people will move to EVs organically, just as they did with ICE cars in the early 20th century

    Pay for two mobility solutions when you only need one… and, as a negative bonus, you’re still reliant on paying for oil and gas.

      Hybrids are consistently among the most reliable vehicles you can buy.

      They add some components, but they also take away some troublesome parts: https://www.torquenews.com/1083/its-whats-missing-matters-why-toyota-hybrids-are-so-much-more-reliable-other-brands-vehicles

      you’re still reliant on paying for oil and gas

      You’re reducing your consumption by roughly 20-30%. Given that this reduction comes at a low cost and retains the ubiquitous fast refueling of gas cars, it’s an excellent choice for many people.

      Yeah I feel like hybrids are a terrible solution from an ownership perspective. You still have to get gas and do maintenance on a gas engine and all that comes with it. All so you can maybe road trip with a little less range anxiety once a year?
