By 2040, hybrids are expected to account for about 35% of the global light-duty vehicle fleet, up from less than 1% in 2010. However, looking ahead, about 80% of the growth in the global fleet will come from non-OECD countries. Vehicle penetration 2000 to 2040. Source: ExxonMobil. Click to enlarge. Source: ExxonMobil.

Plus, it should have lower insurance costs and give you the best extended car warranty deal. When hybrid cars first entered the modern automotive landscape in 2000, they were more expensive than their gas counterparts. So, you had to pay a high initial cost and add high maintenance costs, which made many people shy away from them.

Maximum fleet share for PEVs appears to be limited due to two factors. The first is that the cost of batteries for larger vehicle sizes (i.e. light trucks, vans and SUVs) is significantly higher than for smaller vehicles, so the incremental costs associated with large PEVs pose a major challenge. —Yang et al.
