“EVs market right now...they are often being marketed to early adopters. That means the latest technology is being packed into these vehicles—everything from modern infotainment systems to driving automation, revolutionizing the way you open up the door,” said Fisher, “but when it comes to hybrids they really are really practical vehicles. They're being built for people looking for efficient vehicles, affordable vehicles, safe, reliable, so they aren't really adding all that technology.
“Eventually we will get to the point where EVs are less trouble-prone than any other vehicles,” predicted Fisher. Fisher cited two examples of very different issues reported by consumers. In the case of the Ford F-150, the hybrid version actually performed worse than the internal combustion model because, “it's more of a new type of hybrid. The F-150 is not about getting the best fuel economy, it's really about performance and added towing capacity.”Rear view of Silverado ZR2 Bison.
