This company Toyota started a pretty popular line of hybrid gas-electric cars, maybe 20 years ago, called Priuses. I think they sell pretty well. I see a lot of them running as taxis. The new ones can plug in and drive a few miles on the highway on pure electric before starting the gas engine.

Priuses do use the ICE to drive the wheels though, no?
Yes, they are parallel hybrids.
