Looking at something for my wife. Any experience either good or bad with these new hybrid/electric cars? Usually only 30 miles per day driving or less.
Don't want an electric 914, I like the one I have with an aircooled engine.

Buy a hybrid or all electric because you want the nifty new technology, not because you want a car good for the environment or save you $. In the bay area CA people drive these for the carpool lane sticker (finally the Prius folks got kicked out of the commuter lane), or they like the image of the car.

I thought that I just read that the Volt now gets the commuter lane option due to a special mod to their car, does the Prius not qualify now?
