(there is also the ego factor...a hybrid might have a 120hp engine and that doesn't sooth the ego of someone expecting 200-300hp even though it may have similar unloaded performance)
Some of these new hybrids and full electrics (ferrari, bmw, tesla) are awesome cars. When you add the electic HP (and awesome torque) to the gas engine's HP, they compare well to high end gassers.
There's an all electric racing circuit now, and I believe some hybrid tech incorporated in other racing circuits. These electric enhanced performance cars will gradually show that not
all hybrids need be as wimpy as a Prius.
But agree with others, for long distance towing, I don't really see their advantage.
