I am a very happy Clarity owner. I don't know how Tim could get so little range from his car, I live in hilly CT and usually get 60 or more miles of EV range (my record is 82) and in summer at least I've gotten 50 mpg on gas only over and over. Yes in winter it went down to the mid thirties on my ski trips to VT but all cars go down a lot in winter temps and with snow tires.

My point in writing though is another, one reason I see for lack of promotion of PHEVs is that they are very expensive to make and my guess as an engineer is that at this point the companies lose money on every one they make. Batteries, motors, engine, complex development, and all the interconnections are not cheap. At this point they are just "science projects". Smart consumers should take advantage of this and buy them!
