Advice on EV vs PHEV vs Hybrid

Did the BMW board directors from the union vote to move EV production to non-union China despite that move making sales in one of the company's biggest markets, the US, almost impossible?

 

No they sacrificed their first-born to some Good-Cat (好猫 literal translation).

 

Every company has a right to be wrong. As Dr. Deming said:

“It is not necessary to change. Survival is not mandatory.”​

It sounds like you have a strong preference for US vehicles and have had a positive experience with Ford cars. Given your desire for a hybrid or EV with good fuel economy for your short trips, considering a used Fusion or MKZ is a logical choice. These models have been known for their efficiency.

If you'd like to explore other options within your criteria, you might also consider looking at used Chevrolet Volt or Chevrolet Malibu hybrid models. They offer hybrid technology and are known for their fuel efficiency. Additionally, you might keep an eye out for used Toyota Camry hybrids or Prius models if you're open to non-US brands, as they have a reputation for being reliable and fuel-efficient.
