Prius isn't a mild hybrid. Its electric motors can drive the wheels on their own.
The old definitions of "Series" and "Parallel" hybrids (which meant if the electric motor alone could drive the wheels) must have been changed, if the term used is now "Mild". or not.
mild hybrids are marketing in terms of existence, are compliance regulatory machines typically. Sometimes they upgrade to 48v, introduce regen braking, (fuel econ, and the fact their cutting edge supplementary system have such terrible power management on 12v), remove accessories, but power is still driven by the ice.
just throwing it out there, if one hasn't seen the full uncut rick james interview for that episode it's WAY more funny than the actual episode itself lmaooo
don't you think chaalie's a little olddddd to be taking karate??
To me there is win win for both. It’s obvious Tesla and EVs have come and ICE is still here and there is currently room for both. Why does it have to be one or the other?

i think chdm would be an abbreviation, not an acronym?
acronyms are abbreviations using first letters that spell a pronounceable word (eg., NASA). saw this: "While all acronyms are abbreviations, not all abbreviations are acronyms" - Dictionary.com

wow, hadn't heard of hybrid only parking spots... how lame. guessing this was done in the past for prius virtue-signaling. still, with every camry now a hybrid, and so many other models now hybrids, i don't think that will last.
