    In August 2020, cumulative U.S. plug-in vehicle sales reached 1.6 million units. Plug-in vehicles consist of both battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs). Cumulative BEV sales reached one million units while cumulative PHEV sales were about 600,000. Since June of 2015, BEV sales have outpaced PHEV sales and for the last year, BEVs accounted for 60% or more of all plug-in vehicle sales.

    FORD is bringing the new ESCAPE in PHEV form.

    We're all wondering - will TOYOTA respond with RAV4-PRIME? They reckon NOPE. But - if ESCAPE PHEV sells well, then they could well change their minds.

    In 3 years, there could be Japanese grey-market ones (with the steering wheel on the RIGHT side).

    Post Office? - with the door on the "wrong" side. I remember back in the '50s, one of the newspaper delivery vans was LHD so he could toss the newspapers from the "passenger" side. Later on, the newer RHD car, the chap would toss them across the roof of his car as he drove along - surely putting stress on the shoulder etc.
