    Go right after Prius civic camry accord crv rav 4.
    With more power speed ev range mpg and eventually a plug-in version.
    And evetually match their quality workmanship and reliability.
    And an optional after purchase-small safe gas range extender for their trunk on newer cars or rear storage area.
    This should power the batteries for 100 it 200 or more miles 2 _4 gallons like the bmw i3 for apartment dwellers.

    • @AyaWetts
      @AyaWetts Před 21 dnem

      eCVT and CVT are not the same thing... they share letters, thats it. Subaru tried making their CVT more reliable using metal instead of a rubber belt, its ... better than a normal belt for sure. eCVTs don't use belts at all. Toyotas is completely mechanical, no belts, clutches, anything... very rock solid and lasts forever. Honda's need a bit more maintenance later on because they have a clutch in them... but both are so much better than a CVT or even an Auto transmission.

    Hyundai hybrids start having problems after 5 years and repairs aren't cheap out of warranty. I'll stick to Toyota, then Honda for what they have available. I'll let the guinea pigs take all the risks and we'll circle back in 2030. If you're leasing, I guess it doesn't matter, but then, doesn't matter what brand you get. Hyundai's are throwaway cars. Don't believe me? Dare you to pay cash in full for a Hyundai hybrid and tell me how amazing its been 10 years down the road. Hyundai was sorta worth it when they gave 10 year warranty like 10 years ago, 5 years now is literally when the car will start having major problems. Buying a used Hyundai hybrid is just asking for trouble.

Depends on price and since I'm leasing, should be qualifying for the full $7500 Federal tax credits off MSRP. If Hyundai is rolling out new hybrid technology, it will have issues first year, so by the end of my lease in 2027, the world of EV's should change (or hybrids take over the world).
