Automakers have gone all or nothingArguably the whole point of switching to EVs in the first place was to reduce emissions and lessen the environmental impact that gasoline-powered cars have. PHEVs are absolutely a step in the right direction, but as of now, it seems to be an "all or nothing" attitude among many automakers. You have a choice of a full-EV or you can buy a large gas-powered crossover SUV. There is no in-between.Automakers, instead of looking at what consumers actually want to buy, are pushing PHEVs aside to transition product lineups into fully electric models. When really, the goal should be reducing the number of miles driven in gasoline-powered cars. Customers aren't going to buy EVs if their lifestyle or living situation doesn't support one for the sole purpose of helping out a major automaker meet its sustainability and environmental goal, even if said goals are admirable.Already, many automakers have pledged to make their respective lineups 100% electric. Volvo says it can do it by 2030. Lotus (owned by Geely, the same company that owns Volvo), thinks it can go fully electric by 2028. If customers aren't ready to adopt an EV lifestyle by then, Volvo may well lose loyal customers.PHEVs, on the other hand, can work with existing infrastructure that drivers are already used to, while also increasing the number of no-emissions miles driven.
