I was never a big fan of labels. The term "Hybrid" is a fairly new moniker in relation to automobiles. It is a general term because there are so many ways to arrange technology to accomplish any goal: In this case getting somewhere using 4-ish wheels. As we know automotive companies are playing fast and loose with the term just like they do with sustainability, green, eco, whatever. I read something recently about sustainable war. The definitions are still evolving. Tomorrow may bring new ones. That's why I personally try not to get too hung up on labels, sound bites etc. It's too easy to start generalizing. Language is fluid. Ride the wave.
"Hey, did you see my new Tribrid? It's a hydrogen, solar, hydraulic drive unit with mag-lev suspension."
"That's not a Tribrid, that's a Tri-mode Bi-brid. Sheesh!"
Anyhow I'm sure you are all enjoying your debate. I know I am.
Ciao.
