Are hybrids still a thing?
Yes the new Ford Maverick has a hybrid option and it's been selling very well.
So well in fact that if you want one you probably can't get one, unless you are willing to pay 20% over MSRP for a used one. And now for 2024, the hybrid drivetrain is no longer the standard and is instead a $2500 upgrade. I wanted one but honestly fuck Ford.
Saw a article of a pickup the other day that was an electric driven vehicle with limited miles and a diesal powered generator that would charge the battery. Total range was 500 or so. Wish I could remember what it was, it sounds like evidence of what you were looking for.
