IMHO This is the future of mainstream vehicles - A plug in Hybrid. Covers all the bases electric for short trips Petrol for longer range and when away from charging capabilities. ---

Personally I would prefer a 100% electric car if there were enough charging stations and I knew I could get from A to B. However, at this moment in time I can understand why many people are going for hybrids.
