Hybrid electric: question for car mavens

All depends on your driving style, how much highway vs city, how many miles, etc.. The more city, the more stop and go, the more slow speed driving, it favors the electric.

FWIW, about 20 years ago, I did a back of the envelope calculation for a midsize SUV for my driving style: 50/50 hwy/city but only 8000 miles a year. A gallon of gas would have to go above $4/gal for my break even point. I’ve never paid that amount yet.
