Annectodal, but whatever acceleration curve Toyota uses in its hybrids makes me sick so quickly. I haven't had many problems in Chevy PHEVs or EVs, teslas, or Kia EVs, but I do often get motion sick in ICE vehicles. Not as badly as Toyota hybrids though.

    might just be their suspension setup on the hybrids

    I remember when I test drove a fourth gen Outback and it felt worse than a van. that was enough to prove they had killed the wagon for good

    I'm not sure how much mass they have, but they have a full ICE engine plus batteries. It could just be an issue with how much it weighs and the suspension. I somewhat doubt it's the acceleration curves alone, but I don't know. If it doesn't happen in other vehicles, it seems odd that it'd be that specific curve that's the issue.
