Certainly, these cars represent the best of both worlds. Anyone who does mostly local driving with only the occasional long-distance trip would benefit from one of these.
Direct electric drive at the wheels is a superior idea in theory, and some cars have had this. I'm not sure if it's economical in the long run, or how much it adds to 'saving the planet'. But I'm sure not opposed to them.
There is no doubt that the total EV craze is just another political boondoggle that even the average ill-informed consumer is beginning to see as such. I'm not saying they have no place, but they are strictly a city car. I've had two guests stay with us, one of whom had a plug-in electric, and the other had an all-electric Tesla. They both traveled many miles to get here. The plug-in hybrid was no problem. The Tesla was a total headache.
