EV euphoria is dead
With the EV fervor subsiding, automakers like Ford, GM, Mercedes-Benz,*Volkswagen, Jaguar Land Rover* and Aston Martin* are pulling back on their electric-vehicle plans. Chevrolet* delayed introduction of the new Bolt* passenger car until 2025. Ford cut planned production of its F-150 Lightning in half for 2024, a major reversal after the automaker significantly increased plant capacity for the electric vehicle in 2023.
The rise of hybrids
While U.S. automakers are backtracking from their ambitious EV Goals, they are gearing up to sell more hybrid vehicles. Ford and GM are shifting some of their investment dollars from EVs to hybrid cars and trucks, while Toyota and Honda double down on investments to extend their leads in the sector.
For many drivers, hybrid vehicles offer a sweet spot. They provide excellent fuel economy, produce few emissions and offer and antidote to EV range anxiety. Unlike early hybrids, road testing is proving that hybrids can be faster and more fun to drive than their gas-power counterparts.
The new Hybrid Chevrolet corvette E-Ray, for example, doesn’t trade performance in the name of fuel economy; it’s wicked fast. The E-Ray gets from 0 to 60 mph in 2.5 seconds and covers the quarter mile in 10.5 seconds. On the Street, the car’s combined 655 horsepower, all-wheel-drive traction and instant electric torque make it a stoplight beast capable of ferocious launches.
