That's cool in Gartner research theory land, but Prius and hybrid Camrys confirm its nonsense.

The Prius Prime has a range of 72km according to [0] so it's clearly not "nonsense".

I was referring to the reliability and weight claims.

And 72km is still higher than the average US trip distance, and it will kick over to petrol to augment any occasions when you go over that.

Its literally the best of both worlds - plug in charging convenience for the bulk of your driving and fast refuelling for the times when you need to do road trips.
