So the EV is 7.4 grand more expensive than the hybrid. It should make up for that in lower cost per mile. It may be more affordable than the hybrid, despite the higher initial cost.

Sales reflects this; the EV version outsells the other versions in our country, at least. Even though the hybrid came to market first, the EV is more abundant on the road.
And this far I only spotted one PHEV version in the wild.
EV is a compliance car, PHEV is limited availablility.

Cali is a big market as is carb so sales are fine but it means a flight or used example outside Carb.
