I'm with Deman77 here. It's apples and oranges really.. you can't just apply the pound for pound difference in price from a CMA to SPA.. I'm sure a 3-cyl ICE, lower electrical power and smaller battery capacity car wouldn't cost exactly the same as a T8 version- but the price difference wouldn't be as significant as you think (wish..)

Another thing to consider is a significant weight difference between an ICE-powered and a twin-engined car of similar power. As much as I agree with you on the point that I don't need a 500hp SUV for a daily driver- A 240hp twin-engine hybrid wouldn't have nearly the performance of a D5 ICE-powered car, for eg.
