I bought a new CRV in 2007 and still have it now in 2021. I really wanted to buy a Honda CRV hybrid and keep it for 12 - 15 years. I'm disappointed that the hybrid doesn't come with a spare tire. If I buy one separately it will cost $400 - $500 including the jack and it will take up trunk space.
What really worries and deters me is the hybrid battery. I've read that the hybrid batteries can cost $2000 or more. When the car gets close to the battery warranty ending no one will want to buy the car and it's value will be decreased . And if I plan to keep the car beyond 10 years I will have to anticipate replacing the hybrid battery myself.
The money saved in gas will be lost with battery replacement and a spare tire or towing costs.
