| That's why hybrids are great, hedges your bets between iron and lithium |

| Non-plugin hybrids typically do not use lithium batteries. |

| ▲ | UncleOxidant 5 days ago | parent [-] | | Is this still the case? Haven't most of the manufacturers switched over from NiMH? | | |
| ▲ | eptcyka 5 days ago | parent | next [-] | | They are better suited for the usecase, as they can sustain far more charge cycles without degradation. Which you end up doing a lot. | |

| Terrible cars tho. Nobody likes their hybrids compared to pure EV. |

| ▲ | LoveMortuus 5 days ago | parent | next [-] | | I used to drive a Toyota Yaris Hybrid and I really liked it, I moved to a different country and couldn't take the car with me and now I drive a scooter, but if I'll ever buy a car again, it'll most likely be a hybrid, I really like the range. | |
| ▲ | spauldo 4 days ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | I like my Honda just fine. Granted, I've never owned an EV, but considering I travel a lot and gas stations are plentiful and fast, it's a better fit for me than an EV would be. I do think a plug-in hybrid would be better for when I'm not traveling, but I bought this car specifically for travel. | |

| ▲ | dzhiurgis 3 days ago | parent [-] | | Slow and expensive to maintain. Takes a special person to appreciate that. |
