I do think the PHEV and Hybrid technology will help reduce emissions as a stepping stone until battery technology becomes viable for quick charging and long range. The RAV4 PHEV has a 18.1 kWh battery compared to a BEV ranging from 54 to 82 kWh. If the EV range on the RAV4 Prime meets your daily drive on pure EV, you can make about 3 RAV4s in comparison to 1 BEV.
3 families not having emissions vs 1 family definitely helps.
It also bridges the ICE to BEV transformation.
