. . .my 2020 Toyota Corolla (regular) was expiring earlier this year. (I leased it in the summer of 2019)

But due to post-pandemic inventory issues, they weren't available, so I bought out my lease.

In another year or so, things (and kinks) should be smoother by then, and then I'll trade my car in for a Corolla hybrid.

I cannot go all-the-way EV right now since I do not live in a single-family-residence with garage and there are still issues regarding access to charging stations where I live. But a hybrid will be a nice in-between solution.

I still like the new Prius more but that's just me..
As for the lease, watch out Toyota will wack you with a "lease exit fee" which is discusting.
I sold my leased Prius V to CarVana.. Not only did I NOT pay an exit fee they GAVE me
$2000 more than Toyota offered. Mine had low miles so that helped. Better than CarMax also.. Dealers need used cars so your vehicle is a wanted item. Check them out...YMMV

no problem. No deals now, but paying cash might help. Haven’t had a car payment in a long time, 1982. Just want the base with no add ons.

50 miles and then the hybrid mode kicks in.
Zippy, fun to drive, looks great

Ford Maverick.
I’d get the retiree discount. Not all that much and the wait time is crazy.

I know Mercury is gone, but I’d love to see an electric sports car based on the ‘68 cougar.
