To be fair, every automaker’s low MPG cars subsidize the sale of their hybrids. This helps automakers meet annual EPA MPG averages.

It does make for a good, solid car, though.

I’m not the brightest guy around. Are you saying that the hybrids can’t be sold for a decent profit, but that the hybrids are needed to bolster a given manufacturer’s fleet fuel efficiency value.
