Only as a cudgel against EVs. As a long time Prius fan and fan of hybrids in general, I remember how vehemently they hated it until they needed something to counter the EV wave.
If anyone drove a modern EV versus a modern hybrid, they’d never suggest a hybrid with a straight face. Hybrids are an absolute snooze to drive, loud comparatively, and about as refined as a mid century tractor

Evs also got this sub to love public transit too as a cudgel against EVs lmao. I guess it’s proof a rising tide lifts all ships.
But the hybrid rhetoric here is hilarious.
Before ev: “too complicated, too expensive, going to break”
After ev push: “hybrids are the actual best option for everyone, complexity is good actually”
This sub should love public transport though. Less cars on the road means driving is more enjoyable, less accidents, safer roads, etc.
Haha, you are so right. The amount of support for hybrids and public transit on this sub has never been so high. It’s hilarious.

this is the most exaggerated take on hybrids I’ve ever seen lol not biased at all given your flair.
their flair checks out though, Tesla fanboys are one of the most pretentious out there lol
Or it’s just an accurate take of someone who also owns a hybrid?
Have you ever driven a Lexus hybrid?
Hybrids have come a long way including the Prius itself tbf
