The post-cancellation EREV Lightning is 99% an EV, for the purposes of air pollution. Agree with everything else.

That's why I said (ish). I agree, it's predominantly an EV. I hope they backpedal on the decision a bit and offer both an EREV and a regular EV at the same time. I'm quite happy with my Lightning and will buy another, but I'm not super interested in the EREV as it just adds expense, complexity, and maintenance requirements without offering me much additional functionality for my use case.
I thought the whole point of an EREV is to reduce expense by having less battery in the vehicle.
