I'd consider getting one because 90% of my trips are just around a 15 mile radius. I'm going to get a hybrid for my longer road trips to more remote places.

    While that is what plugin hybrids are good for, remember that you don’t see the advantage unless you actually plug in for those local trips

    You may also take a look into trip charger options for where you take road trips. So far I’ve found there are always multiple choices wherever I want to go, so there’s no reason for range anxiety. For me. And even without trip chargers, is there a chance to charge at your destination? Even the most rural places have electricity
