As a daily driver, it meets and exceeds every single criteria needed:

-Acceptable fuel milage when driven reasonably.
-Decent passing power and handling(no, it is not an Ariel Atom, sorry).
-Reliablity? Think back to your 80' GM.

The hybrid drive is only a means to an end.
It can be geared towards power(like the 918), or millage(like the Insight).

In the end it's only a car.

I was given a Prius as a company car. I drove it for the day, then politely asked for my Chevy Colbalt back... Fawkin hated it

With all the rage about it being a Hybrid, the mileage it gets isnt much better than my 944.
