Ditto for us, the Op. If our 2015 small SUV Mecedes with 32k miles had issues or such would definitely go for a dependable plug-in hybrid. Mid size SUV type. Best of both worlds IMO. And with 80% of our driving being 25 miles or under …perfect. Only issue would be to ensure we’d drive more sometime in order for the engine to run a lot so the gas in tank doesn’t get stale.

We had a non-plug in Prius for 5 years before 2015, great little car and so dependable but we needed a bit more room.
