I wanted a car that was relatively quiet and a plug in hybrid. Not a big list of demands by far.

But so many of the PHEVs are SUVs nowadays.

    Why do you want a plug in hybrid? Haven’t they been shown to be useless for the climate?!

    Because the vast majority of my traveling can be done using electricity and not gasoline.

    It is way cheaper to charge it and I frankly like to drive it more, when it is using electricity. Sometimes I do longer trips and need to use gasoline and I do not have the option of charging it at home.
