Q, are hybrid cars really part of Green Transition?
If drivers rely on the petrol element too much, then likely not really. as Shane Brennan (ChargeUK) put it:
'A plug-in hybrid electric vehicle that is never plugged in is a costly petrol car puling round a heavy battery'; as PHEV drivers often find mid-journey charging too time consuming (75% of popular PHEVs can't use fast charging), they rely (too much) on the petrol engine aspect of their cars.

Morning, all,
as in so many spheres, China leads the World...
Lithium+ batteries carry lots of energy, and can be dangerous if abused. It's not clear if end-of-life petrol/Diesel cars were also involved in this blaze, but it is clear that, while offering many benefits, EVs have to be treated with respect.
Considering an electric bike but not sans taking precautions.
