Can a Hybrid Powertrain be viewed as a "Premium Upgrade"

[OVERKILL]

The more I drive the Grand Cherokee 4xe the more I miss my pure ICE. The Grand Cherokee is faster, gets double if not higher the fuel mileage, has ALL THE TECH, super comfortable ride, and is QUIET.

Can’t wait to have my flow master equipped base model Ram 1500 back.

Yeah, I'm kinda in the same boat. Give back the loaner 4xe which is really nice, and sink back into that glove of a seat in the SRT, which lights up with a snarl and then proceeds to give me 10mpg, lol.

The Wrangler 4xe suits my needs perfectly; I need a vehicle with legitimate off-road capability and the hybrid configuration allows me to use it as a DD in EV mode 99% of the time. I have two cars in the garage that provide my enthusiast fix.

As for hybrid cars, I'd love a new CLE53 or an M5 Touring - if they didn't weigh over 2.5 tons.

I got to hear the turbo once, 99.999% of the time it just rev hangs like crazy….
