Re: Electric vehicle and power storage

Latest Honda all EV Compact SUV is superbly designed but has a range of only 280 miles. It is a lot more expensive than a comparable Hybrid CR-V.

Re: Electric vehicle and power storage

Hybrids are the way to go for vehicles for the next 20 years. Yes. I bought two CR-V Hybrids last year - one 2024 new and a 2020 precertified. I am very happy with both.
