Old observation: "The difference between two headlights & one headlight is a whole lot less than the difference between one headlight & no headlights."

A hybrid may sip a fraction of the gas a V8 consumes, but a pure EV doesn't need any of the gasoline infrastructure at all. (My casual calculations indicate you can run an EV off home solar for half the price of the car.)
