Ok, just got done with a weeklong ICE rental (European road trip).
HATED it.
Cons:
- No regen braking - brakes felt like pieces of wood.
- Missed the smooth acceleration of an EV- feeling the automatic transmission shifting gears was jarring.
- Good grief, the engine noise!
- The emissions-driven “stop-start” thing at stoplights is annoying.
- Turns expensive toxic liquid into toxic fumes for you to breathe.
Pros: it’s just a rental, I gave it back!
