I've had my Yaris about 12 days and I've been asked if it's a hybrid about five or six times already. And that's not to mention how many times I've been asked if it's an EV or a Smart car (I get that one a lot). I had one guy actually try and argue with me that it was a hybrid, assuming no engine could possibly get 40 mpg.
