Plug in hybrids IMHO make the most sense from an all around perspective.
You can charge it at home for those little around town/errands drives. Maybe even charge it at your office.
The hybrid motors run it in the city when you are sitting in traffic.
The ICE engine gives you the ability to drive it across country.
The high torque electric motor makes it into a high end sports car.

I agree. My daughter has a plug in Toyota Prius Prime which is both electric and hybrid. Gets 25 miles on a charge on the electric side which is great for local and automatically switches to hybrid when it runs out of charge. Zero range anxiety and never has to look for a plugin station outside the house.
