    Ah yes I see that now, kind of poor journalism to not mark which are actually electric, making it just a list of 20 cars that says nothing except they are in the top 20. Not very useful. It only says Toyota Yaris, which exist as both self charging and normal ICE, and Kona exist both as EV and ICE, so are they lumped together?

    Stupid schematic to include, when it doesn’t say anything relevant to the article.

        Thanks, I know I made a mistake, but all the cars I knew on that list were Electric. Because currently we only look at electric for our next car.
        So I think it’s a mistake that’s easy to make.
