Which would you chose and why

I prefer a regular hybrid over a plug-in as you always have to find somewhere to plug-in... too inconvenient at this time


Which models are you looking at currently?

@FunnyMan

I am looking at the RAV 4 (2026), The CRV (PHEV 2026) or the CRV 2026- Gas only

@WI_cricfan

Based on that list... I don't think you can go wrong with any of them... it will come down to styling as they are all reliable and the Rav4 is a direct competitor to the CRV so same class/category.


Good luck.

Just thought of this...

Have you considered the Subaru Forester/Crosstrek?

Depending on where you are living, the subie's AWD is unmatched.
